Click to report rating    4/5/25   5     5     5     5     5   I've been working with Dan now for almost a year on my divorce case. He has been very professional and easy to work with. When I told Dan about my negative experiences with family law attorneys, he told me that he'd like to restore my faith in attorneys... which I would say he has done. I feel that I can trust he has mine and my daughter's best interest in mind, and will advocate for what's in our best interest. He has honest and up front about the reality of various situations and I have greatly appreciated his support through this process. RID: 272698
Click to report rating    3/23/21   5     5     5     5     5   Dan Hardee has been my legal counselor for going on three years now. To say he has done an excellent job is an understatement. I have consistently been provided straightforward, sound, and practical legal advice. He values honesty and is truly invested in his clients. Dan is both knowledgeable and experienced which has been evident through the various issues he has helped me navigate regarding changing the custody arrangement for my child. The results of my custody case due to his guidance and expertise was better than satisfactory. My child's life is forever changed for the better. I now have the majority of time with my child and can provide the stability he deserves. Additionally, Brandi (Dan's paralegal), was also instrumental through my custody case. She delivered timely responses and information or documentation. Brandi is organized and accurate in her work. Working with Dan, Brandi and Team has been a pleasure. I would highly recommend their services. RID: 227948

 2/2/18   5     5     5     5     5   Dan helped me this past year with a complex custody modification that was very contentious. Dan's advice was sound, he made adequate time to get to know me and my case, and he worked hard to get a result that worked best for my family. RID: 195557

 1/31/18   5     5     5     5     5   Dan and his team exceeded expectations in every way. They were quick to respond to emails or meet in person as needed. We appreciated Dan’s honesty, integrity, work ethic, and genuine concern for what was best for the kids. His experience and insight into judges, opposing counsels, and mediators were invaluable. He also didn’t try to rack up billable hours. Where it made sense for us to draft documents, Dan provided us with templates and his assistant Brandi edited them, thereby saving us money. However, when things were crucial and required Dan’s expertise, he provided it. Dan understands trial is expensive, and encouraged us to settle our case outside of court if at all possible. Dan’s paralegal Brandi is incredible. She’s dedicated to her job, committed to performing it with excellence, and always remains calm. You can count on her to be efficient, responsive, attentive to detail, and friendly. She made a huge difference, and saved us literally thousands of dollars in legal fees. RID: 195460

 6/3/17   5     5     5     5     5   Hiring Dan Hardee was the best decision I could have made! My original divorce attorney dropped the ball 6 years ago and I ended up with only 17% custody of my son. I tried to modify custody 2 years back with that original attorney and the judge stopped me even before I got started. I hired Dan in July of 2016. Here we are almost a year later and I now have 50/50 custody of my son year round. Dan will do what he promises, He will do his best to keep costs down. His staff is wonderful to work with. He is very good at letting you know what will work and what won't and having you ready for court, a deposition, mediation and a parenting evaluation! Thank you Dan for what you helped me accomplish. Do yourself a HUGE favor and hire Dan for a divorce or custody modification! I wish I had Dan Hardee during my divorce, I would be money ahead! I would also like to highly recommend Carey Imeson in Eagle for a parenting evaluator, she was also instrumental in me getting 50/50 custody. RID: 185662
Click to report rating    4/10/17   5     5     5     5     5   Dan is very knowledgeable and thought of many details for my case. There was even once he called me from his house because he wanted to discuss details he had thought of. I would highly recommend him! RID: 183148

 10/18/16   5     5     5     5     5   Dan is a very experienced attorney who is both honest and trustworthy. He took his time to get to know all the details and nuances of my case to be sure he did his absolute best to represent me. He communicates honestly, even when the news may not be what you want to hear, and has good solutions to fix any problems that may arise. His staff is also quite knowledgeable and friendly, and communicate quickly. I am very Gald I chose Dan, I've worked with a few other lawyers in Boise and he outshined them all in every category imaginable. I've recommended him to family, friends, and co-workers. RID: 175707

 10/18/16   5     5     5     5     5   Dan is different from the rest. He is honest and truly cares about his clients and the outcomes of their cases. Dan has been very honest with our family in regards as what to expect throughout litigation, even when the truth isn't what you want to hear. Dan is extremely dedicated and invested. He is more than just an attorney. He is also very skilled and knowledgeable. We had a very complicated case, involving jurisdictional issues. He went above and beyond, helping us locate a qualified attorney in Oregon and assisting her from afar in regards to the case filed in Idaho. When the Oregon courts determined that the case belonged in Idaho, Dan was quick to update himself with the details and promptly filed temporary papers with the Idaho courts. Dan won't make you promises he can't keep, but he will give it to you straight and assist you in making decisions that make sense. We've never regretted choosing him to represent us and have recommended his services to family and friends. RID: 175696
Click to report rating    8/25/16   5     5     5     5     5   I came to Dan with very little hope due to a previous attorney. Dan was always 100% honest with me and was not afraid to be blunt when I needed it. Emotions can easily take over and cause you to make the wrong decisions when it comes to your child. Dan and his team who are equally awesome, changed our lives and gave my daughter the chance at a life that she may never have had without his involvement in the case. It's clear that Dan, his brother Greg, and paralegal Brandi truly care about the people they represent. My family will be forever grateful for what they did for us. RID: 173451

In a short period of time, he accomplished what two other attorneys couldn't tackle and settled the case. He demonstrated professionalism to all parties involved, prioritized my kids and was fair to both sides. I highly recommend Dan and value his advice. On a personal level, he cares about his family and offers advice that you will thank him for when you're thinking clearly after all the dust settles. RID: 150750

 2/13/13   5     5     5     5     5   Mr. Hardee is amazing. He set the expectation and always followed through. He is knowledgeable and always straight forward with me. His experience shows in his methods, working with him was virtually stress free (as much as a divorce could be). Most importantly, he cared about my case. I couldn't have asked for better representation. I am very satisfied with how he settled my divorce, he had my childrens best interests at heart, and highly recommend him. RID: 101035
Click to report rating    1/28/13   1     1     1     1     1   All the other comments are dumbfounding to me as I saw NONE of it. Dan wrote up my decree and left everything so ambiguous it has kept my ex and I in court every single year since the divorce was finalized. He did not do anything to protect the minors, only his and future attorneys job security by providing ample room to argue just about every little thing. There is so much wiggle room for my ex, there is now no accountability for even basic parental care! He's a MORMON so I expected him to be ethical. He wasn't. I hope and pray his God judges him with the same framework and bias he has guided the Idaho court system. I want him to know he has deeply hurt the children of divorce and caused so much unnecessary strain on them through his neglect and poor legal writing skills. Shame on you, Dan! RID: 99361

I found myself in the midst of a very contentious modification situation and really needed someone I could trust and someone who could really fight for what was best for my children.

Click to report rating    11/29/11   5     5     5     5     5   Dan Hardee is the best family lawyer we have ever worked with. Combined, my husband and I have been through 4 family attorneys, 3 divorces, and 4 divorce modifications and were never as pleased with our counsel as we have been with Dan. We searched a long time to find Dan and he has exceeded our expectations at every turn. He has provided excellent advice when we have run into problems with co-parents. He was the best at explaining the law, the costs, the risks and the protections available to us through the court system. He negotiated settlements with wisdom and an eye towards our future. We have yet to go to trial but Dan is absolutely brilliant when it comes to live depositions and case strategy development. He has helped us to fix divorce decrees that were botched by other attorneys. Our lives are so much better now that we have good decrees to keep the peace. We are so grateful to know him and to have him looking out for us and our children. We can't recommend Dan enough. RID: 56030
