Searching for an attorney can be a difficult undertaking. It is easy for emotions to cloud your judgment. Having an attorney with vast experience in the court the case is being heard is crucial to the outcome of your case. Jeff Dasenbrock is very experienced and knowledgeable how the judges in Miami County see the cases before them. This was extremely beneficial to the outcome to my case. He asked me to trust him, so I did. In the end, I got exactly what I wanted and what I was entitled to. I cannot speak more highly of the job he did for me. I would recommend him without hesitation and he will be my first choice for representation if the need arises in the future. Thank you for believing in me and my case.

Jeff is very personable, straight shooting and will fight for you. He's got the best secretary also. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of my alimony case. My only regret is that I didn't hire him for my initial divorce filing. Highly recommend, look no further!

Jeff was so helpful with my divorce. I feel like he went above abs beyond for me. Laying everything out for me and helping proceed in the best way for me and my kids. He is very quick to respond if to smallest of questions. My divorce took awhile and he hung on all the thru all the issues that came up and gave excellent advice on how to proceed. If I ever need an attorney again I will definitely go back to him.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
