About J. Dennis

An attorney returning his phone calls is not optional, it is mandatory! We understand the need to discuss your particular legal issue on your time table. Sometimes a particular set of facts is so complex and the law so specialized that a knowledgeable attorney familiar with that area of the law is required. Our specialized practice areas include domestic relations, probate & wills, bankruptcy, and corporate in-house counsel. Give us a call today if any of these issues pertain to you and we will be happy to discuss your legal needs.

We try to ensure that our legal fees work feasibly to address a client’s budget and needs. We are known, in many cases, to accept monthly payments when a client cannot pay all of their attorney’s fees in one payment. Our fees are very reasonable.
