I had the privilege of collaborating with Family Law Attorney John Denny on 1/28/2020. His knowledge of divorce law and his professionalism was highly impressive. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Denny to anyone considering his services.
John Denny took over my divorce case after the attorney that I initially hired, ended up leaving the firm a few months into the process. I'm so glad he did! I felt at ease the moment we spoke. John's practical approach and patient demeanor let me know that I was in good, capable hands. He made sure that I understood every step, and was great at answering all of my questions. He has incredible attention to detail - he doesn't miss a thing! Also, even though my ex and I had only modest assets, I've never felt that my case was any less important to him. He's been easily accessible and happy to help. If you're going through a divorce, don't hesitate - John Denny is a solid choice and you'll be happy to have him in your corner.
