Excellent Attorney!!!

JOE DANE IS A EXCELLENT ATTORNEY AND I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS OF MY CASE. I HAD A FEW PRIORS AND HE GOT MY CASE REDUCED WITH NO JAIL TIME. HE GAVE ME GOOD SOLID ADVISE AND DIDNT JUDGE ME. HE DIDNT TRY TO MAKE ME THINK THAT I HAD TO HIRE HIM. I KNEW AFTER THE FIRST CONSULTATION I WAS IN GO...OD HANDS. DURING THE ENTIRE PROCESS HE WAS VERY HONEST AND UP FRONT WITH ME. HE IS PROFESSIONAL AND ON TOP OF HIS GAME. ALSO HE IS CALM AND MAKES YOU FEEL AT EASE. HE IS REALLY A SOLID GOOD PERSON AND I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE.

A great lawyer...a great human being.

Joe handled my case not just with the utmost professionalism and efficiency, but also with compassion. I'm beyond satisfied with the results. If I ever find myself in a tough spot again, I wouldn't hesitate to call on him.

Joe Dane helped me get my life back!!!

I made a mistake a few years ago and decided to drive drunk. I stood up like a man and admitted I was guilty. I paid all the fines, complied with all the court orders, and stopped drinking in order to turn my life around. However, that is not enough in California. I was branded with the scarlet lette...rs DUI on everything I tried to do. Although I was never told that I was rejected because of my offense, I knew in my own mind that my DUI was a serious impediment to moving forward. I decided I needed to do something about it. I found a lot of chain law firms that promised to deliver results, but they were either way to expensive, or they simply wanted to assign a legal assistant to work with me. I came across Joe Dane on a forum much like this one. I gave him a call at lunch, and that very afternoon he made time to see me. We talked about every aspect of my case from the laws regarding DUI expungement, to the fact that I was still on informal probation. Other than family, Joe was the first person I talked with about my DUI that didn't make me feel like an outcast for making a one time mistake. Joe not only told me about the procedures, but also the best way to put together a comprehensive package for the court to consider my plea. Joe was with me every step of the way. He understood that I was a good person caught up in a very harsh environment for DUI offenders. As a result of all the hard work from Joe my probation was terminated 9 months early, and my entire DUI case was dismissed. I can honestly tell people that I have not been convicted of a crime. It feels so liberating to have the burden of guilt lifted off your chest. I'm looking forward to moving on with my life and considering applying for a new job, and eventually pursuing graduate education. If you are trying to get your DUI case expunged in Orange County Joe Dane is the best lawyer, with the most reasonable price. He will never make you feel like a criminal, and goes that extra step to let you know he cares about you and your case.

An outstanding attorney who helped me on my case and convinced the DA not to file any charges.

I made stupid mistakes and got arrested for DV. I was really scared about the possibility of going to jail until I spoke with Mr. Dane. He quickly calmed me down and evaluated my situation. He is very honest and explained the worst scenario and the best scenario that might to me. He quickly recomme...nded me to start doing counseling voluntarily with my wife, this will put myself in a very good position and show the court and the DA that I am trying to correct my mistakes. After charges were not filed on the initial court date, I continued with counseling which helped me to manage my stress and anger. While I am doing counseling, Mr. Dane was able to negotiate with the DA not file charges against me citing my progress from counseling. Mr. Dane's experience and understanding of the system got me a very favorable outcome. He paid a lot attention on my case and personally spoke to my counselor about my progress several times. I am very fortunate to have Mr. Dane as my attorney.
