A lawyer’s duty to keep client confidences has few exceptions and in an abundance of caution I do not feel at liberty to respond in a point by point fashion in this forum. Suffice it to say that I do not believe that the post presents a fair and accurate picture of the events.
"Diane is known for her pragmatism when approaching each case individually. I am extremely confident each client receives a bespoke experience and representation with Diane. I would not hesitate to hire Diane personally should the need arise. I endorse Diane and recommend her representation without hesitation."
"Diane is an extremely competent and hard working attorney. She knows the family law courts well. Her expertise and overall courtroom demeanor make her a complete treasure to work with. Diane works hard for her clients. I would recommend Diane to anyone needing help with their family law matters as I know they would be in good hands."
"I endorse this lawyer. Diane is committed to get the best possible outcomes for her clients. She is smart and determined."
