Great Attorney!

Diane was upfront about what she could do for my Family Custody, and my pending Divorce. She helped me keep my sanity and be a good man and a good father. Being compliant with what the judge requested, is always great advice when you’re in this situation as a man and a Dad. I got to keep and increas...e my Visitation Rights with my kids. I let the house go and got to keep my business intact. Diane was honest about my probabilities of success in court for a trial, based on my specific situation. She potentially saved me over $20,000 in Court Fees if I would have lost. And I did not have to pay the other party’s attorney fees, which was a blessing. She helped me set up mediation and it was a success. A shady attorney may have taken me to trial to “win” and keep a lot more money as the trial drags on. I have heard from other men in my situation, that can happen as the testimony questions on the stand can take around 2 whole days in Court… that’s a lot of money. Diane went to bat for me and she will do the same for you. Thank You!

Attorney

Diane is a very knowledgeable and confident attorney. I met Diane as an opposing counsel. She was able to put her client's heighten emotions aside, advocate on her client's behalf, and was able to articulate her legal arguments professionally. Diane is one of the few family law attorneys that I ca...n call and attempt to resolve the client's issues before having to go to court.

Very Good attorney that fight for you to win..

I hired Diane for my divorce and child custody of my 3 Children and she took on my case.. She really did a good job with keeping on top of my ex wife to supply what she needed for the court.. I feel like Diane went out of her way for me.. One thing I can tell you, You get what you pay for... Diane wa...s ready for the final divorce even though my ex wife wasn't.. I would hire her again if I needed another divorce lawyer hopefully never needing one again.. Thanks Diane and the team that worked for me..

Hard Mid-Life Crisis!

I’m a 46yo father whose marriage was dissolved, my ex and I shared 50/50 until she decided to fall of the face of the planet. For two years I watched my kids mental health deteriorate, while I myself fell into a deep depression. I hired Diane and her team and within ONE week my burdens felt lighter!... Even after a lack of communication on my part (death in the family), Diane was ready to work for me! As of this writing things look very good for me thanks to Diane, Kaily, Whitney and the entire team at Farnsworth Broderson! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
