ACD
I found Dan due to his high ratings at Avvo. I had never been in a situation where I needed a defense attorney, so given I didn't have any immediate family in law, I was going in pretty blind. Dan walked me through the case and implications over the phone for free, and was totally calm and informativ...

Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2018.
Reciprocal - Suspension issued in MA, 2018
updated on 10/12/2018This means that the attorney's misconduct in another state, or jurisdiction, also violated the rules for practicing law in Massachusetts.
Daniel’s comment:
“The suspension involved failing to disclose an incident of academic misconduct on my application to the bar of another jurisdiction which took place in 2010, and after consulting counsel who advised me that the incident of academic misconduct did not have to be disclosed. See: https://bbopublic.blob.core.windows.net/web/f/bd18-008.pdf”
