Dannenbaum Law Firm
I'm ready to help you find the most efficient and effective solution to your divorce issues. I help couples navigate the paperwork and other processes associated with uncontested divorce. One of the top divorce lawyers in the Washington D.C. metro area and one of the best lawyers in Washington. There is no denying that divorce is tough.

But divorce is different for different people. For young professionals who have only been together a few months, we can likely reach a quick, relatively painless solution. For those with complex assets intertwined through decades of marriage, the process may be much more complicated.
Services
For more than 25 years, people throughout northern Virginia and Washington, D.C., have relied on me, Daniel G. Dannenbaum, to work hard on their behalf and provide them effective representation in their family law matters, including divorce, separation agreements and child custody issues, and to provide effective mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution.
One of the advantages of working with an attorney on your divorce or other family law-related issues is that it is a crucial backstop against agreeing to something that is not in your best interests. By working with me, Daniel G. Dannenbaum, you will be working with a lawyer who has been through more than 3,000 family law cases.
At Dannenbaum Law Firm, PLLC, in Arlington, Virginia, I encourage many of my clients to consider mediation to reach agreements on all aspects of their divorce. I strongly believe in the benefits of the mediation process. With more than 25 years of experience and over 3,000 family law cases under my belt, I know that many couples will not be able to negotiate a settlement amicably.
For many couples in Arlington and throughout the Washington, D.C., metro area - especially younger couples or those who have only been married for a few months or years - uncontested divorce may be the best option for moving through the divorce process as quickly, quietly and painlessly as possible.
I cannot say enough in praise of Attorney Dannenbaum. When I was in what felt like a life crisis, he immediately made himself available to me. He not only gave me world-class legal help but carefully talked me through my crisis in the most supportive and empathetic manner imaginable and turned my world right-side up again.

Dan is a wonderful person! He accidentally hit my car in our gym parking lot. He not only left a note but also helped me fix the car just as it was before. I believe this speaks upon his character, values and integrity. Though, I've only interacted with him personally, this most certainly does reflect on him professionally. If I ever need any legal advice, I most certainly would reach out to him. In a day and age where there is so much hatred and dishonesty, it is nice meeting a kind human being.

Mr. Dannenbaum was extremely helpful and to the point. He clearly has a lot of experience in divorce and custody matters as he was able to very quickly understand my situation and provide clear advice and different options. He was very responsive and agreed to have a conversation on the weekend. I am highly impressed by his service, knowledge, clarity of counsel and promptness.

Total incompetent fool who should be disbarred. The judge ruled in my favor but because he "messed up his notes", he submitted a worksheet/info that was completely wrong to the clerk and refused to fix because my son's deadbeat father would no longer retain him. He acknowledged he was wrong but would not fix, which is sending me back to court once again. The judge provided an amount, and he couldn't get the math right - he even reached out to me, the opposing party to ask for help in doing the worksheet, which I did, and he still went with the wrong info. I've never worked

I would highly recommend attorney Daniel G. Dannenbaum to everyone seeking legal advice for family law, or searching for the next best attorney to represent you in court. He is a subject matter expert with more than 30 years of legal practice, don't forget his interpersonal skills with other attorneys is valuable during mediation. We admire his attention to detail and respect his recommendations. Once again, the attorney fees are reasonable and transparent. We would definitely retain Dan for legal advice for all family related services.

Dan helped me file for and complete a divorce. With Dan's guidance the legal process could not have gone better. Dan is compassionate, caring and very easy to talk to. I was at ease the moment I met him.
Dan recently helped a family memeber with a similar situation. They were very happy with Dan as well. A true professional in the practice of family law.

Dan Dannenbaum handled my divorce case. He was always knowledgeable, fees were fair, and he was responsive. I had looked at some of the firms that advertise as being "discount firms" but when you actually read their reviews, people were almost always in the dark about what the process was, and where things stood. That was never the case with the Dannebaum firm. I would recommend him for anyone that wants /needs excellent legal work. If you need a lawyer, you want yours to be excellent.

I engaged Dan to write a contract of unequal ownership of a house. At the onset it seemed that it would be straightforward, but as Dan and I progressed our discussion, it became clear that what I needed was a real estate lawyer, and this is not Dan's specialty. Dan provided valuable insight, and directed me to the appropriate resource.
