With over 30 years working with insurance companies, I know the language. In my experience, the vast amount of insurance companies want to offer a fair settlement but you need a lawyer that knows the language and how they think and if and when it comes time to fight - we fight. We handle most injuries including, medical malpractice, slip and fall, auto accidents, hurt at work, dog bites - if you have been injured, call us.

I Recommend DiAna

Jack was super helpful with a landlord issue I was having as a tenant. He provided the resources I needed to understand and solve the problem, ultimately without needing to retain him. I definitely recommend him.

Our primary practice area is personal injury but we get a lot of calls from people needing help with landlord tenant issues and try to help when we can. Thank you for the review!

Sound advice.

Jack and Jennie treated me very well. Jack consulted with me on very short notice and gave me very sound advice. His fee was reasonable and I look forward to asking him to represent me if necessary.

Very knowledgable - trustworthy

Jack helped me acquire a business. He was great to deal with, was very knowledgable, and explained everything to me. I learned a lot from him, but most importantly, I could trust him 100%. He has great intentions and did a great job for me. I highly recommend him!

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

He’s a great listener and made me comfortable

I had been looking for a lawyer for several months. I talked with over 20 different attorneys and met with a dozen of them but when I talked to Mr. DiAna, I knew he was the right lawyer for me. He was an excellent listener and was very determined to win my case. He took a complex case and presented ...it in such a way that was easy for the judge to follow. Mr. DiAna went the extra mile and spent an extraordinary amount of time with me. He was always available to talk to me and answer all my questions. He is also a great coach so I knew what to expect at the trial. He is a very honest and trustworthy man. He fought for what is best for me and won my case!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
