Hired Attorney

“My experience with attorney Danna Baker was extremely negative. From the beginning, I felt disrespected and subjected to inappropriate comments related to my Latina background, which made me feel discriminated against and unprotected. Instead of defending my interests, she consistently acted as if she was on my ex‑husband’s side, ignoring my concerns and minimizing very serious situations I was going through. I paid her $15,000 for representation, yet during mediation it was agreed that my ex‑husband would pay $7,000 in attorney’s fees. Despite that agreement, she still charged me the full amount without any explanation or justification. This felt like double billing and a serious lack of professional ethics. I also received documents with false information, offensive remarks, and overall poor representation that left me vulnerable and without proper legal support. Based on my personal experience, I cannot recommend her services.”

I am sorry to see this review and that you feel dissatisfied with your experience. Due to attorney-client confidentiality and the sensitive nature of family law matters, I cannot respond publicly to the specific allegations, case details, mediation discussions, billing issues, or documents referenced here. I take allegations of disrespect, discrimination, and unethical conduct very seriously. My practice is committed to professionalism, integrity, and respectful representation of all clients. I invite you to contact my office directly so we can address your concerns through the appropriate private channels. Law Office of Dana Baker, P.C.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions
