She will do her best for you

Dana will work to get you the best possible outcome. Well worth $10K. I trusted her 100% with the life of my husband. She is human and not assembly line

Got paid and did nothing. Never showed up in court!

Dana was hired to help with my daughters case. My daughter was deployed at the time and was important for us to find a good attorney. I fell for the mom card(lessen learned) . Dana didn't show up for court as a result a warrant was put out on my daughter. Come to find out she never did anything, the... courts said she wasn't even down as my daughters attorney. I had to hire a new attorney just to fix the warrant witch left my daughter with no fight had to take a plea. I have asked for a refund and was told will pay back in payments. It's been a year and a half, hasn't seen a dime.

Horrible

Dana did nothing for my case. Here it is several months after my case closed and still have not received a statement or my file. She was asked by me to send all of it to my girlfriends house but still nothing.

Not so good

Dana was hired to represent a friend who is in jail. I think he would of had much better luck with a court appointed attorney. Here it is four months later and he still does not have his discovery and she does not keep in touch with him. Hopefully something good will come out of all this.
