      Review John DiAna

      I Recommend DiAna

      Posted by

      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.

      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.

      He’s a great listener and made me comfortable

      Posted by

      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!

      Great lawyer

      Posted by

      Jack went above and beyond for me even getting back to me when in an airport to reassure me during an emergency. He spent time explaining things to me and was very knowledgable. I was completely happy with the deal he negotiated for me - 100% satisfied and would highly recommend him!

      Amazing lawyer - trustworthy

      Posted by

      When my personal injury case got down to the serious negotiation stage, I had 100% confidence Jack was going to take care of me and I felt protected. I can't describe it any other way, I felt protected. It helped eased the stress immensely. He handled a room full of lawyers, insurance company lawyers and other high power lawyers, like a pro. He never stopped fighting for my interest. In the end, what I got was so far above what they told me was their final offer and was extremely happy! I whole-heartedly recommend Jack!
