Adoption Review

David Lohman is our favorite lawyer EVER. He truly cares about the work he does and was there for us every step of the way in the adoption of our wonderful child. Every time we visited with him, he devoted all his attention and resources to fit our needs and desires. The best part was his communicati...on, he replies promptly to emails and phone calls or called us back right away. He kept us informed of what was going on with adoption, sent us emails and copies of everything that he filed with the courts, throughout the entire process! David is someone you can feel like you can trust and talk about anything. He is kind and understanding, and I don’t know what we would have done without him. We highly recommend him to anyone going through an adoption journey. With his superb communication, integrity, objectivity and professional knowledge of his work: he is the best person to help you. If there is anything, we need a lawyer for in the future we are going to contact David indefinitely. He is truly remarkable at what he does.

Adoption

My husband and I hired Mr. Lohman to assist us with an adoption that involved two states which is typically more complicated. He made all the necessary contacts and had all the documents in order when it came time to go to court. The judge even pointed out, that having worked with him in the past, he... was not surprised with his well organized preparation. He also was timely and affordable. Thank you, Debra

Very thorough, very sharp about the law

David Lohman is such a wonderful attorney. The first time we hired him we were adopting our granddaughter. We have called him for advice on many occasions. We recently hired him on a sensitive matter. He was, as always, very thorough in his research. He was considerate of our feelings. He spent as mu...ch time with us as we needed. We always turn to him because he is so sharp about the law. We recommend him to all our friends.

Eternally Grateful to David Lohman

When my family asked me to adopt my nephew I wholeheartedly accepted the position as a father to this unborn child. I knew I needed a lawyer for this. David was there to start the process and to establish a guardianship for me so I could take him home from the hospital. Since then my guardianship ...has been challenged four separate times: twice by mom and twice more by dad. David has been steadfast guiding me through a sea of storms lasting two and a half years. He encouraged me along the way when it was difficult. Eventually he earned a judgment against mom and recovered thousands of dollars in attorney fees from her. During this time I worked closely with him and he listen to my ideas. He has protected my interest in this matter with great compassion for myself and in the best interest for my child. I think of him as wise, patient, experienced, and above all willing to advise me when I was wrong or needed to do something myself. David had great patients in handling this matter along with a wealth of knowledge of these laws and always acted in a professional manner when dealing with the courts. I am eternally grateful to Mr. Lohman (and his staff) and will always refer friends and family to him for all legal matters.
