  Janice absolutely knows her stuff. She’s professional, intelligent, & considered all things in my questions and situation. She was also so mindful of how hard things are and will be for me, giving me invaluable advice for how to move forward to best provide for my children & myself. I can’t recommend her & her practice enough.

  Excellent I had a great experience working with Janice Dantes. Not only does she treat you like a human being but also as a friend. I had a great experience with her and really appreciated the wonderful advice she was able to give me to help me get started on the right foot. I have a long journey ahead, but I feel like I’m not in it alone anymore.
