Dentons Durham Jones Pinegar

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, ValueDoug Thayer and Dave Nielson are the two finest attorneys I could have hired. My family’s life was strung out in the courts for seven years. We had already been through three previous attorneys before I was referred to Doug Thayer. He can be intimidating, especially if you’re wired sensitively from past abuse. I almost let Doug’s abrupt, confrontational style scare me off when I first met him. But I knew I was shopping for a fighter, not a friend; and hiring Doug was one of the best decisions of my life. His initially intimidating style made him an incredible attorney able to wage a winning battle in court. I had an extremely complicated, sordid case, with mountains of evidence, that previous attorneys never bothered to investigate. Dave Nielson combed through EVERY piece of evidence for my case, leaving no stone unturned. Doug and Dave fought relentlessly for me, to protect my children. Though there is nothing worse than having your life in the hands of the courts, Doug and Dave are proof that even in an unjust system, there are still lawyers with integrity who will fight for the truth.It would take pages to describe all the ways my attorneys fought fearlessly, but a few examples… They uncovered the truth that a psychological evaluation report held as evidence in the court for 16 months, had been doctored and falsified. They challenged and turned upside down the unfounded, inaccurate reports of an unscrupulous reunification therapist. They stationed a process server outside the home of a witness the very day she was to return from an extended period out of state, having won their motion to re-subpoena her after she refused to answer questions. They sought out the best expert witnesses and had a continual stream of brilliant ideas for my case. They were upfront and honest about money, and worked as fast as they could to keep their bill within the confines of the budget I had. Doug and Dave did everything in their power to win my case and saved my children from a life of abuse and trauma. I will be forever grateful to them—they were worth every penny. They fought for a downtrodden, small-time, single mother with the aggressiveness and passion they would use to fight for a powerful, high-profile, wealthy client. I would return to them for any legal need, and I would refer anyone with an honest case to DDJP. Though I initially chose this legal team only for their fight, I now consider them my friends. Nobody fights that hard for you if they don’t care, and these attorneys truly care.Doug Thayer and Dave Nielson are the two finest attorneys I could have hired.
