William Smyth, Estate planning Attorney
Relationship: Worked together on matter
Danielle is an outstanding lawyer. I have known Danielle for a long time and have had the pleasure of working with her on several matters. She is professional, knowledgeable, and really cares about her clients. Her tech savvy is second to none! I recommend Danielle without reservation.
Amy Martell, Mediation Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I have known Danielle for many years as a fellow attorney-mama colleague, and most recently I became a client. Danielle has always impressed me with her insight and knowledge, but what really sets her apart as an estate planning attorney is how deeply she cares about her clients and the level of precision and personalization she brings to the plans she drafts. I enthusiastically recommend her!
