The following is based on my experience and perspective as a previous client. If you're ok with your divorce attorney taking his time, with no pressure or proactivity to move things along, and you’re definitely not interested in litigation but handling everything through settlement, then hire Dan. After 3 months of working with Dan. I had a bad gut feeling that I was in the same position and made zero progress with the divorce case. So I began to consult with other family law attorneys for a second opinion. Dan is not a terrible attorney but was referred to as a “settlement attorney.” Meaning that if you’re looking for an attorney who will roll up his sleeve, ensure the divorce process gets moving and will be proactive with your case (especially as a father), then definitely look for another attorney, which is exactly what I had to do after the below happened. After he ran through the initial retainer, he still charged me another 1.1K for services rendered. All that was accomplished legally was getting my wife served, a court appearance, 2 mediation sessions coordinated (which was paid outside of the retainer), and a 2nd court date that kept getting pushed down. A bulk of the costs on the invoice were for emails, texts and phone calls. For example, on one Saturday morning, I spoke to him for 63 seconds and my brother spoke to him for less than 3 minutes. Yet on his invoice he charged me for 24 minutes worth of service/fees. The previous is just one example of the line items I asked him to please elaborate and explain how he reached the final cost. I asked him via email first to please elaborate and explain how he reaches the final cost/fees. First he called me a week later asking me a question to an answer I had already provided to him via text about a week and half ago. I then asked him if he could please elaborate how he got to the final cost/services regarding his invoice. His responses were defensive, he said that Judges tell him that “he doesn’t charge enough.” I tried asking him about specific line items (like the one previously mentioned) and he did not provide a clear answer. His response was, “What do you want?” and “this is the part where [I'm] supposed to give a number” but adds that if I low-ball him he “will walk away and I can go ahead and find another representation.” This was also not the first time he raised his voice (borderline yells) at me over the phone. If necessary to defend my review, I can provide proof of call times plus the messages and emails I would send him and would get no response to them. I don’t want to drag this review out further so let me end this review with that he was much quicker to respond and take action regarding his payment (literally hours) in comparison to how proactive and quickly he handled my case, not to mention he took days to get back to my new family law attorney to make a legal transition of counsel in the case.

I have never had a DUI and I had no idea what was going to happen with me or my license. Attorney Ktenas walked me through the process and set my mind at ease. He was able to get me Court Supervision and a reduced fine. The Judge even stated my attorney did an excellent job! I highly recommend Alex Ktenas to represent anyone that needs help like I did.

Thank you Alex, he is the best attorney out there! He answers all your questions that you may have, the process of getting my DUI case was dropped. It took a bit longer but it was all worth it, I don’t regret working with him, he gave me the best advice & suggestion from his experience. Im so happy he helped me with my case. I plead guilty driving with a no valid license, plus the speeding & the DUI case was dropped. No regrets! Hire Alex as your attorney, you will be in good hands!

I had Dan represent me in my divorce case. He is a very knowledgeable and forthright attorney. He knows the law well and doesn't encourage needless motions because he's not about gimmicks and games like many other attorneys. He understands limits and potential outcomes and will look out for your best interest. He doesn't overage or undercharge, he charges based on what is fair for his time with a lot less overhead unlike many other attorneys. He's an honorable person and will always do his best for you!

Definitely recommend Alex!! Great job and kept me up to date on every detail. Highly recommend

Excellent lawyer, Alex Ktenas was super helpful with my DUI. I was scared that my driving privileges were going to be revoked forever but he was able to calm me down, listen to my story and help! He recommended an evaluator, helped me get in contact with traffic school of behavior change. He was with me at court EVERY appearance, super punctual, and professional. Alex helped me every step of the way, letting me know what was happening and making sure I understood. Thank you for your help. Would highly recommend.

Dan was professional and thorough. He kept my case as simple as possible and was very honest with me. I would highly recommend him.
