Janice Dantes
Janice Dantes, Attorney at Law
Janice is a passionate attorney dedicated to increasing access of Filipinos to high quality legal services, especially in the areas of divorce, custody, child support, and alimony. She was born at Clark Air Force Base in Angeles City in the Philippines. She graduated from the University of Chicago with a Bachelor's Degree in Public Policy Studies in 2005 and DePaul University College of Law in 2013.
Janice noticed that there were few attorneys providing legal support to Filipinos, especially women and single mothers, in family law. Because of the strong Catholic tradition in the Philippines, divorce is a taboo topic with little support available to Filipinos seeking advice and assistance. Janice hopes to provide understanding and compassion to Filipinos struggling to find support with these legal issues.
Being fluent in Tagalog and having strong ties to her Filipino heritage, Janice is able to effectively advocate for her fellow kababayan in the American court system.
