Mr. Dunkle is a partner of Sanger, Swysen & Dunkle in Santa Barbara. And throughout the duration of my case, he carried me through the end. He was freely open to give his knowledge and advice, or answer any of my hundreds of questions, or talk through the possible outcomes of different scenarios; which was appreciative because it really helped me to keep calm. During the legal appearance, he was on time and his presence added to my favor. I’m truly grateful to have found him and his practice. A big thank you too to Jake and Jessica in the main office too, you were both very kind.
