I HIRED MS. VANLEUVEN TO TERMINATE PERMANENT ALIMONY. SHE TOOK MY RETAINER AND AFTER ONE YEAR HAD NOT SUBMITTED THE CASE. SHE WOULD NOT RETURN MY CALLS, VOICE MAILS, OR TEXTS. I FINALLY GOT TO TALK TO HER AFTER I FILED A ETHICS CHARGE AGAINST HER. IN ALL MY DEALINGS WITH MS. VANLEUVEN I HAVE FOUND HER TO BE VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND UNETHICAL

After a lot of soul searching and lawyer searching - I found Dana Van Leuven. She was very forthcoming with initial information on my search. I had questions that she answered without hesitation (other attorneys I probed didn't do that) - she seemed honest and easy to talk to and I appreciate that. One never knows if it's the right time or the right thing to do, when making life changes. I hired her and am hoping to have an "easy go" with my case. - I trust she will have my best interest in mind while guiding me through my legal journey.

Dana is an exceptional lawyer. In my case not only do I need advice, I need support. She has provided that to me. She is understanding of those times when I want to lash out at the system for lack of progress in my case. She explains why and shows me paths I can take to allow me to move on to the next steps. For me the fact that she cares about me is a very big positive. On the lawyer side she is fantastic. I love that she can put in a couple of sentences what another lawyer needs to use paragraphs to explain. She does not waste time on frivolous issues even when as a disgruntled person at times I might ask for it. She shows me the best path(s) to take. She works at her craft. She works for her clients. I usually find that she has already thought of the things I might ask her to do and has a ready plan. In the process I am in she is not the first lawyer I used, but she will be the last and the one that I remember for the quality of service I received.
