Vanessa Celeste Deniston

These are top litigators. Fearless. I myself am an attorney who specializes in plaintiff's litigation. I sought help from the Dolan Law Firm for a case where I was the plaintiff. Chris and Vanessa fought for me at every turn and obtained a great result for my case. They were responsive to my concerns..., worked hard on the case, and worked as a team. Day in and day out, Vanessa faced an army of opposing attorneys and took them all on, routinely winning decisions in front of the judge. Chris came in for the kill. He is smart and aggressive. At the beginning of the case, Chris prepares to go to trial, and if the other side remains unreasonable, he salivates for a showdown. I highly recommend Chris, Vanessa, and the Dolan Law Firm.

I consulted with Vanessa Deniston regarding potential litigation. She came highly referred from a number of different lawyers and she proved that she deserved their praise. She is an excellent listener, reviewed my documents, and provided me with excellent legal advice, as confirmed by other lawyers ...I talked with. I have a busy and hectic work schedule and was frequently unable to talk during normal business hours, and she was willing to talk to me in the evenings after hours and on weekends. She also followed up with me after our consultation to ensure I had adequate resolution of my legal issues. For those who are fortunate enough to be her client, she will work hard and go above and beyond to resolve your issue.

My case was a sexual harassment case. I wasn't too sure if I wanted to hire an attorney and take the case further, but so glad I did. In doing so met Vanessa and she put in so much time and dedication into my case. She showed compassion and became so involved in my case that I knew right away I had m...ade the right choice. My case was an on the job sexual harassment and when I felt like I wasn't being heard or taken seriously i decided to take things further before there were anymore victims. I knew what was going in with my case at all times. My questions were responded to rather quickly. She guided me and helped me through the extremely emotional process by making me feel confident and hopeful that justice would be served. She was very knowledgeable and was very quick at getting any and all evidence and witnesses together. I felt very at ease and very confident with Vanessa having my case in her hands. I'm so glad I got to work with Vanessa and absolutely very happy With the ending results .

Vanessa strikes that wonderful balance of professionalism and truly caring about her clients. She is intelligent and compassionate and very easy to work with. I hired her to work on my employment agreement and succession planning documents that I was negotiating with the company I work for (a buy se...ll agreement, stock option agreement, and succession plan). She was incredibly patient and committed during what became a drawn out process on the company's part and she helped expedite in many ways. Vanessa did a great job reviewing the documents and red-lining to ensure that my needs were being met but, more importantly, she approached them proactively rather than merely being reactive, anticipating a future in which these documents would not just protect me but also serve me.

I had the pleasure to work side-by-side with Vanessa when she was working for my co-counsel Shegerian & Associates, PC in Santa Monica. We worked on 6 highly contentious and internationally publicized sexual assault . Vanessa proved to be a terrific legal talent and bright attorney. Vanessa has exce...llent good "trial lawyer" instincts which is very rare. She was well liked and respected by the judges and clerks. Not to be missed is her wonderful sense of humor.
