Dan was recognized by the National Academy of Family Law Attorneys (NAFLA) as being one of the top ten family lawyers in Idaho (2014). Dan has also been  appointed as a Parenting Coordinator for the State of Idaho.

 

"I work with high-net worth individuals to help them achieve a successful post-marital result that allows them to feel safe, comfortable, and secure. At the same time, I make every effort to protect their rights to their children so they can continue to lead healthy, productive, and confident lives.”

 

Litigated and mediated cases for more than a decade. He has successfully litigated issues and/or negotiated settlements involving complex divorce and financial matters, custody, support, division of property, international and domestic adoptions, and termination of parental rights. While his experience includes all facets of family law, his family law practice is focused on the needs of wealthy divorcing individuals and the complex financial issues regarding their estates, business interests, and custodial rights.

 

Experience with the Hague Convention and has experience in multi-jurisdictional and international support, valuation, custody, and enforcement matters. He has a variety of international family law clients and has been consulted on matters involving parties' interests in various states, as well as foreign nations such as Australia, Brazil, Canada, Ecuador, Haiti, Italy, Mexico, Sweden, and Thailand.

 

Board of director and advisory board experience sitting on international non-profit companies that own and operate overseas orphanages. He provides legal advice and support to families and companies regarding international adoptions.

Excellent Attorney
Mr. Dummar did an excellent job from start to finish in my family law matter (Divorce, Custody, Child Support). He was accessible and responded to phone calls and e-mails in a timely manner. I would absolutely use Dan again for my lawyer for future legal issues. He comes highly recommended.

Highly recommend
I would strongly recommend Dan Dummar. Dan is extremely focused on his clients, as a person, and invests emotion into the case. He never missed an opportunity to make a phone call, write a letter, or do whatever necessary to go above and beyond for us. He was very calmly aggressive with situations he knew were not right and challenged individuals and decisions that were questionable. Dan is a very honest, solid and commendable person. We feel so fortunate to have had him on our side and defending our family.
