Nancy Weinberg Dahan

I recently went through a surprise divorce. I didn’t know what I was doing so I hired a very expensive, highly rated, award winning, Orange County Attorney to represent me. I had a simple divorce and was only interested in getting the alimony lowered. After charging me an amount way above her esti...mate I ended up with the exact same deal that I was offered before I hired an attorney. It was a nightmare. I heard good things about Brown and Dahan from a friend that was also going through a divorce at the same time. So within a few days of my previous meeting I met with Nancy Dahan. She made no outrageous promises but did promise to give me some real representation. At the next court meeting Kathy Brown got my alimony lowered by a significant amount. She did this while charging me a fraction of what my previous, useless attorney charged. Hiring Brown and Dahan was the smartest move I made during my divorce. They came in under their estimate, cut about 25% off my alimony and saved me from certain bankruptcy.

Nancy Dahan is insane. I met with her to interview and she asked me to write a little blurb about why I moved to California. I thought it odd but complied. When she came back she told me she didn't care what I said, she just wanted to see my handwriting because you can tell all about a person's pe...rsonality by their handwriting. THIS is who you're entrusting with your dissolution. I have gone on to jobs where Brown & Dahan have been opposing counsel and they have been absolutely horrible. Erin McKinley, the associate there, is a monster. She ran up over 100k in attorney fees doing nothing but propounding discovery on our client, asking for the same documents over and over again, then filing a motion for our client to pay for all the attorney fees they ran up doing so. As a professional in family law, I cannot say strongly enough to stay away from these psychos.
