BEST LAWYER AROUND!!!!!!!!!
Desiree is the best! Very compassionate, caring, and knows her job very well. I went through a horrible horrible divorce after 2 lawyers before her that completely screwed my case up even more Desiree took my case over and worked hard to resolve everything that the other lawyers screwed up. Desiree i...

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.

If you hire her you will loose money and your case
What I find sad is that Desiree has to defend herself from her own clients! Why is that? If you are a good attorney than your record would speak for itself vs you, but records also speak for bad attorneys like in this case. If you are reading this think twice before hiring Desiree. She will throw in...
The allegations made here are untrue and are gross misstatements of fact. My office and staff take pride in handling cases effectively and efficiently, although specific results cannot be guaranteed. There are times in cases when there is a breakdown in communication for various reasons. It should be noted that anonymous complaints provide persons with questionable motives to make false complaints without any responsibility or accountability. To the extent that this person claims that any applicable RPC's were violated, I vigorously dispute such claims as well as any claims that my staff members are incompetent.

The content of this review shows level of instability present in the reviewer. The allegations made here are untrue and are gross misstatements of fact, including the assertion that this person was attacked and/or that there was a breach of any privilege - this is simply not true.

Horrible Lawyer!!!
Thanks but no thanks. Support staff was incompetent and Mrs. Hosannah rarely communicated with me about my divorce. She took my retainer and left me high and dry. Don't hire, this attorney has in unethical and shady.
Comments made by unidentified individuals are highly suspect. The behavior alleged here is untrue. Our office strives to handle each case effectively and efficiently, although specific results cannot be guaranteed. At a minimum, if this person has a problem with any services that may have been rendered, then they are welcomed and encouraged to contact our office or another appropriate agency so that all parties have a fair opportunity to respond effectively to complaints. Anonymous complaints provide persons with questionable motives to make false complaints without any responsibility or accountability. To the extent that this person is claiming that any applicable RPC's were violated, I vigorously dispute such claims as well as any claims that my staff members are incompetent.
"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."
