Danae Dawn Woody

I hired Danae to represent me on a very painful family law issue after filing an emergency motion on my own. Due to the fact we had less than 5 days to prepare I was terrified that I would not be able to convey my story in it's entirety. Danae jumped right in and exceeded my expectations in the amount of effort she put into preparing for the hearing. Danae had the perfect balance of empathy for my situation, without allowing me to wallow and was there to remind me we were there to get a job done. The entire time she remained nothing less than professional and had a no-nonsense approach to my case. Having hired attorneys in the past, I was blown away at the amount of organization and preparation she put in to my case; given the fact she had less than 5 days to prepare for the hearing! I have to say she put in more effort than previous attorneys I had hired in the past, who had MONTHS to prepare. I felt nothing less than confident that she was going to fight for me and do her very best. One thing that stood out was how much information she provided me for the stipulations when giving testimony, She also spent a lot of time coaching me on my demeanor as well as the magistrate who would be hearing the case. She remains confident, yet humble and never mislead me or gave me false hope on the outcome. She was 100% honest with me from the beginning and she kept me prepared for the next step. In addition to this, Danae was on her toes during the hearing and when she was thrown for a loop she never stumbled in changing her game plan. She was able to transition and remain flexible while under pressure and appeared confident throughout. We had 2 cases, equally important to present and were only allotted 25 minutes per case. Danae was more than prepared and when she learned of the time crunch at the time of the hearing, she changed her course of action and was able to prioritize and strategize without hesitation. Never again will I have to worry about finding another attorney, I am a client for life. Danae is so knowledgeable in issues relating to domestic violence and many attorneys do not understand the manifestation of trauma, and how it can cause the victim to forget certain pieces of what has happened to them. Although Danae was aware of this, she never once wasted time in allowing me to stay stuck in the trauma I experienced. She did her best to help me remember what important pieces I needed to convey and what pieces I needed to leave out. Danae helped me to move through the emotions I was experiencing into a more productive state. The best part of course is we succeeded in both cases and the next day Danae had the courtesy to call and check up on me and prepare me for what was to come next.I cannot emphasize enough how pleased I am with her service and I will recommend Danae without hesitation to anyone I meet who is in need of a good, honest, dedicated and no-nonsense type of attorney. If you are on here reading this review, I highly encourage you to stop your search and trust that Danae will handle your case with the same care and amount of effort that she did with mine. I have no doubt that as Danae continues to serve clients she will also continue to be recognized for her outstanding achievements in improving the lives of her clients and their families. Danae is a total rock star and I am fully confident no other attorney could have competed with the quality of work she performed on my behalf. Thank you so much Danae I am forever grateful for your knowledge, dedication and help with my case!

Danae is highly professional but also caring. She takes the time with cases, even after hours, to get her clients the best results. She offers great legal advise, and she is capable of playing nice or mean, whichever is needed to get the results she needs. I would recommend her any day.

Danae was very incredible and such a hard worker. She was very involved and was excellent during the time I had her. The only thing I would mark down for is although decently affordable to those who have money, there was no option for a payment plan built around income. They had requested very high pay and due to the high pay not according to the actual monthly costs acquired, they requested to pull off the case. A retainer had to be replenished within 30 days. If I had more money and more of an option I would made efforts to keep her on my case as she is very detailed and on point. Her law firm in general were on top of responses and on top of deadlines. Her associate attorney Katie Ahles is also very good as well. Wonderful staff. I do look forward to possibly retaining her again once I can catch up.
