Dan Hess goes above and beyond for his clients. He was very thorough with all of the evidence I gave him in a very complicated and difficult custody case. I feel he had the best interest of my child and understood what I was fighting for. I was constantly kept informed and talked to in a way I would understand everything that was going on. In court, Dan is very hard working, professional, persistent, and gets the job done. I was more than pleased with my choice of having Dan Hess as my lawyer. I highly recommend Gordon & Hess, PLC.

This firm helped our family out a couple times. They were excellent in keeping us up to date on our case, returned our calls/text promptly even after hours. Very understanding in a time of crisis. Highly recommend this firm for all family matters.

Brian has helped many clients of mine that were going through divorce situations. He is a rockstar attorney. He is incredibly fair with his prices and has his client’s best interest at heart. Clients have saved money and come out with a stress free outlook after using him. Thank you Brian!

I retained Brian Gordon as my divorce attorney. He was very honest and upfront about everything and guided me through the difficult process always explaining things and having my back. His rates were reasonable and i highly recommend him if you need someone you can really trust and count on.

Hired Dan Hess while going through my divorce. He walked me through the process with each individual step and was available upon request when needed. He was able to help ease my mind with the financial burden this divorce had given me and was gracious enough to help work with me and my income.

I obtained Brian Gordon for a custody case. Not only was he professional and timely, he related to me on a personal level and helped me through all of the legal jargon I didn't understand. I was very apprehensive about the process but his knowledge and professionalism helped ease that. Great lawyer and personable. He is very no-nonsense. I would highly recommend him.

Dan Hess is a great attorney. My very, very challenging divorce took almost a year to finalize but he got it done and I ended up with 98% of what I wanted which is pretty awesome! He was prompt with replies to my questions and available when I needed him. No complaints, at all.

Gordon [Brian] is a bulldog! He not only won my case, he got the case thrown out entirely. I sleep better knowing he has got my back!

Brian has been professional, knowledgeable, honest, trustworthy, and always responded promptly. Being away from the area, it was imperative to find an attorney whom we trusted and represent us while having a full understanding of the issues and circumstances as they are complex and entwined. Brian has encompassed that and more. Without hesitation, I would recommend Brian to anyone whom asked. Thank you Brian!

Met with one of the lawyers there for a 30 minute consult. Was super excited based on reviews. However, when I got there they made me spend 15 of the 30 minutes filling out paperwork. Once we got to the dialog portion he barely spoke at all. He answered almost nothing I asked and I left the meeting more confused than when I walked into the meeting. If you're looking for a lawyer that is attenative and actually wants to fight for you....this is not the group for you. Obviously they are too busy with other more important things.

Dan, just want to say thank you so much for everything you have done! Never had a doubt you wouldn't put your best foot forward in my best interest. This wasn't a easy case aprox 1.5 yrs of up and down drama. I truly appreciate everything you did for my family. Would highly recommend Gordon and Hess (Daniel)

I hate all attorneys, they all lie. Save your money and get bent over alone, unless your a woman, then attorneys are great, they will bend over the father everytime, I believe most of them were made fun of growing up, and that's their way of paying back their bullys from school. Attorneys, how do you sleep at night, knowing your greed hurts children? Line em all up against the wall.

I could not be more happier with this group of people! Everyone is SO nice and helpful at this office! I had the opportunity to have Dan Hess represent my custody case. It was a long road but we came out on top and won! His professionalism and the drive that he has to go after what you want and deserve is something you wont find just anywhere! He was honest about things that was worth the fight and what was worth leaving alone! If you are looking for an attorney to fight for you and/or your family, I would HIGHLY recommend Attorney Dan Hess.

Brian e Gordon will act like your best friend he runs off with your cash like he did with me took $500 cash never answered his phone or office. Then he screwed up on my child court order after 9 time's then billed me for everyone. The ottawa county court said that was his fault .i wouldn't trust this guy at all save your money and look for a GOOD attorney. Yes ill be bring the pics of you taking the $500 and 2 days later never showed up for court didn't answer phone. Who steals money from a clients? This guy here and everyone will see who this guy is after i get him in court. Do your research before you pay this guy seriously he will steal your MONEY. I DO HAVE PROOF.

Brian represented my son in a juvenile matter. He did an excellent job explaining the process and helped us to understand our options. Brian was accommodating to our needs and left us in control of the final decisions. This made a difficult situation feel more comfortable, and it was invaluable. He has a lot of experience and I would recommend Brian and his firm to anyone needing counsel.

Efficient, cost effective, and aggressive in seeking a desirable solution

I retained Brian and Dan's representation for the last year of a nearly two decades long family court case. A complicated case though it was, Brian and his team expertly navigated through the litigation, past and present, until everything possible was done in the interests of our family.

Being no stranger to the legal system, I knew that oftentimes compromises were the order of the day. In our case I appreciated both the attitude and method by which a positive resolution was resolved that I am quite satisfied with.

Brian walked me through a very tough divorce and calmed me down many times and assured me that it would all work out. He was very timely in his responses, knew when to fight for me and told me when I was wrong, but most importantly looked out for me financially. His rates are the most reasonable in the area and his expertise is second to none. I wouldn't hesitate to use Brian again and his law firm. Great decision on my part and I owe a lot to Brian and his team.

So my brother been in this ongoing custody battle with the mother of his daughter. And I have hired a few lawyers for him all of which turned out to be crappy in my opinion and just didn't know how to be a lawyer. So I made it my mission to find him a great lawyer and I found Mr. Brian Gordon of Gordon and Hess law firm and when I tell you I couldn't have pick a better lawyer for my brother. Mr. Gordon was honest with me and didn't promise me any fake false dream like results. Instead he realistically explained how these cases worked. Gave the best advice and represented my brother in the best way. I wished I would have found him in the beginning I could have saved myself and my family a lot of money and grief because my brother would have been represented the right way! Mr.Gordon works for his clients and he fights hard for them. If you are looking for not only a great attorney but an attorney that will fight for you with your best interests in mind please do yourself a favor and hire Mr.Gordon at Gordon and Hess

Brian Gordon took on my case to fight for more parenting time with my son. He was efficient in handling my case and transitions between court and mediation sessions. Brian took time to discuss scenarios thoroughly so that I was prepared for all possibilities at hearings. I would highly recommend Brian as a representative in family legal matters.

Brian is an excellent, down to earth attorney who treats you like a human being rather than a client. He doesn't give you advice to maximize the money he can make off of you but rather talks through your options from a cost-benefit perspective. I strongly recommend using Mr. Gordon if you need sound advice not slimy, lawyer antics.

Brian Gordon is an excellent, honest and straightforward divorce lawyer that helped me with my divorce while I was living out of state. His communication was great throughout the case and had me feeling like I was across town instead of across the country. Brian dealt with a challenging case and opposing counsel in a professional manner that got me the results that I wanted. If you are local or anywhere around the country, I highly recommend you hire Brian Gordon and get a lawyer you can trust.

I wanted to choose a lawyer from out of town and after an exhaustive search I found Dan Hess. He was easy to communicate with, was always available to me, and walked me through the whole process. A custody battle is a horrible experience but Mr. Hess made it go a lot smoother than I had anticipated. He had to travel quite a distance for my case and was always on time and fully prepared. He never over charged me, and in fact charged a very reasonable fee compared to other attorneys in the area. I now have full custody of my daughter and would recommend Daniel Hess to anyone.

Brian Gordon is an excellent choice for a divorce lawyer. Knowledgeable, energetic, empathetic, dedicated, and sensitive to your resources. I liked his emphasis on mediation. My divorce was long, adversarial, and difficult. Due to mental health issues, I needed custody of my children. His efforts and advice to me for navigating the legal landscape was outstanding in a world that discounts the rights of fathers. I received custody. Brian’s help and advice had authenticity and understanding I needed and appreciated, and helped in bringing healing to my family.

Brian was personally recommended to me by another father who had used his services handling a divorce with minor children.

I highly recommend this firm and Daniel Hess. He helped me with a very complicated family court matter and a probate matter involving removal of my name from Protective Service Record. This was successful and a huge vindication of an injustice and such a relief. He was very competent and aggressively advocated for me throughout the process. I felt respected and that my voice was heard. If you are looking for a lawyer, you can trust this firm.

Dan Hess was extremely helpful in understanding the process and worked hard for me each step of the way. Dan was both personable and knowledgeable, traits you don't find very often with other attorney's who quite honestly can be jerks. I would recommend Dan or his partner Brain Gordon to anyone who is looking for honest attorneys who are very good at what they do. It is a nice bonus that their rates are reasonable, especially with the level of service and professionalism they offer.

Brian Gordon helped me through a bankruptcy case. He was very thorough and able to provide me with good advice. What I really appreciated was his honesty on the matter and his support (as I did not want to have to do this..). He advised me as to what to say in my hearing and what the next steps would be to start rebuilding. The entire process was smooth and easy despite my anxiety. I would do business with Gordon and Hess in the future, after my experience I would trust them with other personal matters if applicable. Thanks Gordon & Hess!

I am currently using Gordon & Hess as my attorneys for an ongoing case. I have never had an easier attorney to deal with than Brian Gordon. There are so many rude attorneys with egos that are above the clouds that they sometimes miss out on opportunities to represent clients to build their prestige. Ever since day one, when I first contacted the office, Brian has been nothing but good towards me. Any issues I ever have, he's always quick to get back to me whether it be a phone call or even an email. I would highly suggest checking them out if your case is something that they specialize in, I promise you won't be disappointed. Not to mention, their prices are very reasonable compared to a lot of attorneys on the market.

If your a man like me that loves his children then I strongly suggest Gordon and Hess. When my then wife left me for someone else I knew what was really important to me my children! They got me much more than what the man usually gets in time with his beloved children. They did a great job of getting me time "more than half"! with my children I was so lucky a good friend told me to talk to them. Trust me call them they really care.
