So grateful!

You don’t ever think you’ll find yourself in a situation of needing a criminal attorney. But, when our son was going through a very challenging time in his life, I was grateful to have Dana on my side.

Positive revirew

I recently consulted with Dana Hogle in a criminal littering/tresspassing charge from a neighbor. This was a very stressful time for me and Dana not only gave me expert advise on how to respond, he walked me through what to expect and treated me like family. For anyone needing the best criminal... defense advice, Dana should be your first call. 5 stars are not enough to accurately rate how pleased I am. I was able to resolve this matter quickly and at the least cost to my family. Mr. Hogle, I cannot express in words how grateful I am, thank you.

Run and don’t hire

Not happy with this firm, I hired them last year with Mr. Moon an attorney who worked there. He changed my husbands court date and it extended the drama for longer which was unneeded. We had a court hearing before Covid and he never notified my husband that it was changed so he took the time off work... think he was going to court. Me. Moon resigned during the period after he changed the court hearing and Mr. Hogle took the case. He notified my husband that he was taking the fees his ex wife owed out of the retirement, we all know that’s not possible not in a QDRO. Now he made a contract with the other party that we prepaid for and claims we owe more money. Our representation was not good nor was the communication. I have asked for several weeks now to co firm why I owe more money when I prepaid for the whole process. I got no answer just a bill that they tripled since we haven’t paid it. They won’t speak to us or get back to us and it’s costing us more money to retain another attorney to resolve this issue. I am very displeased with these people because they didn’t notify when they cancel and transfer his case. They made an agreement with the other party causing conflict of interest and charged me for her half even though they are getting her half from the retirement. That’s nothing to do with me, I should be getting a refund for the half she owes that I prepaid. It is not my fault Mr. Moon wasted a lot of time causing delays in his case. This is ridiculous and this firm is causing undue hardship on our family and wasted time. My retirement is just sitting there for two years now because of their lack of professionalism. Thanks Hogle for costing me twice as much in retainer fees since you lied to your client and didn’t give us the respect to let us know you made an agreement with the other party without even consulting me. When I emailed them they refuse to contact me or my husband. When we hired Mr. Moon we spoke to him and understood that he would take care of the issue and do it with the intent of my husbands best interest as his client. This was a total conflict of interest and they continue to keep charging me fees when I have to retain another attorney to resolve this issue that should’ve been taken care of by their firm. They are charging me monthly for not paying when I disagree with the charges since I prepaid for the QDRO to begin with. The respondent is responsible for half and they made an agreement with her to pay once she gets the portion of her retirement but they haven’t refunded me for her half that was prepaid but billed me more. I have been to court one time during this issue and paid 3,500 for a QDRO to be done. That is it and they are now charging me 315.00 more on top of that and this agreement they made with her is supposed to be refunded to me as I already paid for that portion. They don’t speak to me and continue to charge me kore each month for not paying and refuse to speak to me or my husband. This will never be resolved until we take them to court.

Dismissed Criminal Charges Case

I had a case against me for domestic violence. I hired Dana to help represent me. After several months of working with him me case got dismissed. I am happy that I chose him. At times it took longer than I wanted for my calls to be returned, but I get it, he is busy. Overall I am extremely happy I... hired him.

Avoid at all Costs $6500 Plus 25 Interest

If Dana worked as hard as he did separating me from his fee $6500 plus 25 % as he did on my case I would be fine. Well after he didn't show up for court my first time ever in court. I knew i was in trouble. After I spoke to his less than reassuring staff I realized I made a terrible mistake.... A complete nightmare. Find an Experienced Lawyer and ask for references, not these online love fests. Never pay $6500 up front with no guarantee that your lawyer will even show up for court let alone answer your phone calls ... It would be an honor to prevent anyone from going through what I did. s. Never pay $6500 up front Plus 25% with no guarantee that your lawyer will even show up for court let alone answer your phone calls

Kevin, per your messages about refunding your money or else you would leave bad reviews we expected your review. You’ve told me your concerns and your issues in person which I respect and appreciate. My staff and I are not always perfect and there is always room to improve. You are a unique man. Your quick wit and sarcasm had my staff friendly and chatty instead of direct and to the point. We have found that most of our clients like to be treated like as a friend and accepted and not judged when accused of a crime and dealing with the stress that comes with that. Your critique of my staff was discussed internally but alas they will continue to be empathetic and kind to our clients for that is the culture and approach we take each client. As far as the court appearances, I am as timely as possible. Many courts run long and I can be a bit tardy at times. I am always in the same courthouse, I am just in-between court rooms. My staff is in constant communication with each client that is waiting on me, updating them with my schedule in the court in real time via text message or by phone. Your feelings of being in court and having your advocate at your side is more than important to me and my firm. You and I were able to achieve a good result with the State and I wish you well with your continued freedom. As far as money goes, you elected to use a third party lending company (a bank) that has terms of interest that me and my firm have no say in. It is an agreement between you and that bank, my firm has no control over. It is as if you used a credit card issued by a bank. My staff and I are saddened that such a good legal result has gone unnoticed. As I said before in our one-on-one discussion, your experience with my staff and myself was welcomed and taken seriously given all clients matter. Again, I wish you the very best and think of your and powerful personality fondly. Dana
