"Daniel Jensen is best ethical lawyer I came across"

I am from India and was living in India with my children, in family dispute my husband suddenly abducted my children from the day care to an unknown place in California, my daughter was 2 years old and son was 4 years old. Only thing I was aware that he was in working in Redwood city. Almost 10 mont...hs had passed, I had no idea where and how kids were. I approached every possible way to find out about my children. I had custody order from India from High Court, lower court but due to international parental abduction, things were complicated in India. I also approached international parental abduction unit of States who guided me to a few attorneys but all the information given by them was taking lot of time with no result. I knew one thing that is, I needed somebody who is best, I am glad that I came across Mr. Daniel Jensen through Avvo. Mr. Jensen could completely understand the whole mess. He told me timely action will help me to take my children back to India. He has gone way beyond to ensure I get justice. His office is just best, they could understand the cultural difference and complicated situation and were very sensitive to my case. With their super speed action, I saw my children after 10 months in his office. I was given the legal and physical custody of my children within 1 month. I could return back to India within a week from USA. My special thanks to Miss Carol Ferreyra, she was in charge of my case. I have seen her in the court, she is very confident, intelligent and witty woman, with strong legal knowledge. Everybody in his office gave their 100 % to solve my case. They are expensive but I never felt so as they would precisely let me know why they charged but I tell you it’s better to go to best rather than wasting small amount on somebody who would lack experience and knowledge. I had spend much more in India on lawyers. Overall I would say, Daniel Jensen and Carol are best ethical lawyers I came across, I am amazed the way they solved my case. Today I am happy and back to India with children. Thank you Daniel!

Exceeded all expectations

Daniel Jensen represented me in court a few years ago. Without getting too specific, I expected him to do a professional and thorough job, but he offered so much more. He gave excellent advice about actions I should take before and during court appearances. Daniel also provided insight about the norm...al court procedures and his expectations about my case, which were gathered from his many years of experience. He treated me with utmost respect -- not only did he keep me informed about developments regarding the case, but I felt that I could trust him to get the best possible outcome. I was grateful that Daniel would be my lawyer, but it was only once the case was over that I understood just how lucky I was to have him represent me. Thanks for all your help Dan.
