BEST LAWYER AROUND!!!!!!!!!
Desiree is the best! Very compassionate, caring, and knows her job very well.

Top notch attorney
I would give her more than five stars if I was allowed. Desiree took a case that was all sorts of messed up thanks to my previous attorney, and fixed in three months what my previous attorney took two years to completely mess up. I now have reasonable child support payments based on my ACTUAL incom...

originally review was anonymous but I feel compelled to let everyone know!
The reason I decided to write this is because YEARS later and I mean YEARS! I am still cleaning up a mess that started with horrible representation from Desiree. My case was in 2012 and some of the residue of the piss poor job by Desiree still effects me and unfortunately my baby girl. I fired Desire...
The comments in this review are false, do not reflect the standards of conduct and practice in my office AND it is very telling that the reviewer waited years later to file another review. The fact that this person is using this forum to identify and vilify a former spouse is also very telling. I am more than willing to address any concerns the reviewer may have and would be happy to speak with the reviewer personally - my number and address remain the same and they are welcome to contact me as soon as they are able to discuss this matter. The claims and comments here are not true - period.

Impecable attorney
After trying to handle a child custody battle on my own and getting walked all over by my ex's attorney, I hired Desiree after she was highly recommended by other professionals. This was the best decision I could have made! I was told by everyone that it wasn't looking so good for me and that it wa...
"I endorse Desiree Hosannah, she is well respected in the legal community, professional and a pleasure to work with. She and her staff care about their clients and obtaining the best outcome for them."
"Desiree Hosannah is a lawyer with impeccable integrity and a wealth of experience in family law and civil litigation. She represents her clients with vigor, comes well-prepared, and is well-respected in the legal community."
"Desiree is a fantastic attorney with a wealth of knowledge that would be extremely difficult to match. Desiree is a wonderful mentor, attorney, and colleague who is always straight forward and open minded. I endorse this lawyer."
"Desiree and I were on opposing sides of a contentious will contest wherein she represented an estate beneficiary with significant disabilities. Most lawyers would likely have passed on the representation due to the logistical challenges attendant to her client's needs, but Desiree compassionately and professionally advocated for her client, and obtained a good result following a complicated trial."
