Knowledgeable, innovative and caring, Dan is the best anywhere!
Possessing a high intellect, excellent talent for legal argument and caring demeanor, Dan’s skill in representing me throughout the difficult process of divorce was impeccable. Dan is knowledgeable, ethical and creative. His advice along the way helped me to make well educated decisions. When I required referrals to obtain a realtor to list our property, or to find an accountant, Dan referred me to top notch professionals in each field. Dan stands out in the crowd of family practice attorneys. I am so grateful to have found the right and bright lawyer to represent me. I highly recommend Dan, he helped me to obtain the best of outcomes, better than I ever thought possible. My heartfelt thanks to Dan's staff as well, with a special to Gina!

A Perfect Performance
As POA for my father, I engaged the firm Daniel was working at to handle dad's divorce and Daniel was assigned to work on the case. It was a very trying time and took nearly 2 years, but in retrospect I now realize what an amazing job Daniel did for us. Every single one of the many recommendations he made was absolutely correct. With instincts that seem positively uncanny, he precisely charted the perfect course through an extremely difficult series of obstacles and got dad the settlement that he deserved. I can't recall any time where I have seen a lawyer put in such a flawless performance.

Very knowledgeable and fair
I did not directly have Daniel as my attorney. I was involved in complicated case regarding custody. My attorney and I worked along side of Daniel and his client, my step sons mother. He worked with us both, keeping the best Interest of my child and my step son in mind for visitation with their father. He is very knowledgeable of the law and will recite the definition of words if you do not understand them or to make you better understand wording in regards to court documents. He is personable, easy to talk to, and professional. He will not back down on what he feels is right for the matter and is very detail oriented. I felt comfortable corroborating with Daniel and my attorney to get the best outcome for our children. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a family law attorney in NJ.

Excellent and Caring Lawyer
Daniel was a fantastic choice for a lawyer to handle my child custody dispute. He always made me feel as if he genuinly cared about my case and my family, which was not only comforting, but very helpful in building a trusting relationship. He was very honest and accomodating at all times. Dan is a fantastic trial lawyer who blew me away the first time I saw him in trial...very assertive, stern, and smart. His paralegal, Gina, is also very helpful, caring, and smart. Without their dilligent work on what I believe was a very difficult case, my trial could have ended up with a very different outcome. I am so grateful to have worked with Dan and Gina and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for relief from an unhealthy and abusive relationship in order to better the lives of their children.

Genuine and Experienced Lawyer with your Best Interest in Mind
I met with Daniel Tune and he took the time with me to listen to my case concerning my mother's estate/inheritance. He was willing to proceed with my case on contingency. He made me aware of all the possible outcomes before I decided to proceed and made sure I would be prepared for the complex legal processes that were to be involved my case, which he has had plenty of experience with. Throughout the entire process, he was sincerely caring and empathetic, since it was a delicate situation dealing with the death of my mother. If you want a lawyer that GENUINElY wants to consider your case and help you-- go to Martin & Tune.

wonderful family lawyer
Daniel is smart, kind and ethical - I recommend him without reservation. He was very generous in taking time to understand the specifics of my situation and gave me excellent advice. I was impressed by how quickly he understood the nuances of my situation and that he clearly had my (and my child's) best interests in mind. I am extremely grateful to Daniel for his time and advice.

Brilliant Divorce Attorney
I try not to imagine what would have happened if I did not switch my divorce lawyer to Daniel Tune after speaking to a friend about my concerns with my previous lawyer. She told me she interviewed about 10 other lawyers and immediately knew Dan was right for her; assertive, clever, kind, very knowledgable of NJ divorce law and with reasonable rates. She was exactly right, he was the complete package. Dan immediately recognized my abusive relationship for what it was and helped me do the same to finally take a stand against it. This was just the beginning of Dan demonstrating his capabilities to me; as an intense and clever litigator, respect he has from other colleagues in court, his intense hard work on your case, his knowledge of the law and clever solutions despite some harsh New Jersey divorce laws. The reality of divorce law in New Jersey was a shock to me and down right unfair in my opinion. After I finally got the courage to leave this relationship with my kids, I found myself facing a lifetime of alimony payments that would cause significant financial hardship for my kids and myself as well as child custody concerns, despite all the abuse. However, Dan was able to come up with a brilliant alternative. He is clever, assertive, prepared, kind and professional. His wonderful support staff, Gina and Alaina were always available, very knowledgeable, reassuring and kind as well. I am so thankful to Dan and his team for their outstanding abilities. If you are interviewing divorce attorneys or trying to get the courage to leave an abusive marriage, there is no doubt in my mind, no matter how difficult your situation, Daniel Tune and his team will exceed your expectations and work diligently towards the best possible solution for you and your family.

Hire Dan Tune to be your lawyer!
Dan helped me out with a VERY sensitive situation that was troubling me both personally and professionally..I never felt uncomfortable or unaware at any point during my time with Dan as my Lawyer.....Not only did he explain everything to me in a way that I could understand but he took the time to text or call with updates and his staff is also extremely helpful and attentive. Dan is extremely knowledgeable and if he isn't sure about something he takes the time to do the research and figure things out....and when he does, hes on the phone with you explaining things every step of the way. This was the first time I've needed a lawyer to fix a problem and the process was a a good one with a positive result for me and my case. I hope to never need a lawyer again, but if I do, I will be calling Daniel Tune 100%.

Wonderful Attorney
Dan was awesome! I have had an ongoing child custody and child support case for years. After dealing with a few different attorneys who were not able to get me anywhere with I decided to give Dan a shot. Starting with the first letter Dan sent to the court, things starting looking up for my case. Dan was straight forward and honest about what to expect with my case, what my options were and what he though the best would be for me. Dan was very knowledgeable, compassionate and understanding. I am happy that I have finally found such a wonderful attorney. I would highly recommend Mr. Tune to my family and friends.

Intelligent,Capable,Caring.......Dan's "THE MAN"
Dan's legal erudition is second to none. In a very difficult divorce that included a myriad of issues from child custody to economic matters, Dan's facile mind handled all situations with immeasurable tact and competence. Additionally, Dan's calming and caring nature consistently focused me on the issues at hand during a very tumultuous emotional reality...............divorce. Dan always treated me in a very professional and ultimately "human" fashion; I never felt like just another client. Therefore, I highly recommend Daniel Tune, he is as Istate in my title......"The Man." Thanks again, Dan!

Our very own Super Hero
Someone mentioned 'Super hero' was more like a title for Mr. Tune than an Attorney, and I would have to agree 100%. A very emotional few years for my daughter and I have been handled by this amazing Attorney, now considered a friend. I felt very confident in Daniel's ability to fight for what was right with my case but I had no clue how great of a lawyer he was until we went to trial. Mr. Tune not only has the experience and knowledge to take on a complicated case, he has the drive to fight for his clients best interest. My case has ended, in my favor of course, and now Dan continues to make sure every string is neatly tied going forward. I will be forever grateful to Daniel Tune and his staff for their passion, dedication & professionalism they have shown both of us through the years.

A Divorce Client
It's been almost 4 years since I have known Daniel B. Tune. I had one of the shortest yet most complicated marriages in the state of New Jersey. The divorce was completed in less than 12 months. Ironically, If you know the "Tortoise and the Hare" story. Mr. Tune was the Tortoise. He took the high road maintained the integrity of the case respecting both sides and was still able to successfully meet my agreed targets. I'm happy and more importantly my sons are happy. Thank you.

Top notch professional
Dan has been helping me out with some of the paperwork for starting my new business. Dan has been very helpful and professional throughout the process. Would definitely recommend him. He's a hard working guy and has your best interests in mind at all times.

smart, caring and very clever
Dan listens and asks all the right questions to come to an almost scary understanding of your case and then outlines for you not one but several courses of action. Whether it be in court or out of court direct negotiation, Dan has a presence and is persuasive and usually successful.

Flexible, Knowledgeable & Trustworthy
Daniel and his team were able assist with my family and estate planning. It's a tough subject to have to think about, but the people over at Martin & Tune helped make it as painless as possible. They were very accommodating in working with me using my preferred methods of contact instead of requiring me to take endless days off to go into their office. When I did have to go in, they were timely with their appointments. Their knowledge and experience on the subject was helpful as well. It was my first go around on planning but they were able to bring up topics that I should have been concerned about; but had never crossed my mind. I found the team trustworthy, and I would highly recommend them.
