Dan Arshack is brilliant

Dan Arshack was recommended by a mutual friend. The short of it is that I was in a major soup facing felony charges in a case where the court does not take matters lightly. Mr. Arshack is courteous, professional and has a no-nonsense attitude. Throughout the process (still in progress), he has alw...ays kept me informed on the goings on and his brilliant efforts have led to a situation where the major worries and consequences are likely to evaporate. His advice has been crucial along the way and his guidance on what to expect in each situation has been spot on. This was entirely due to the innovative and “out of the box” approach that Mr. Arshack takes and his unique style is effective and sound. He is a veteran of the New York system and knows how to “play the tape to the end” for every turn, and provides clarity for the possible outcomes. I am certainly glad to have him representing me. I could not have asked for anyone better during this testing time in my life. I highly recommend him, and feel fortunate to have found him.

Review of Daniel Arshack

My husband and I hired Mr. Arshack to handle a criminal case and a settlement. Dan successfully had the criminal charges dismissed. He also negotiated a cash settlement for us. Dan is caring and professional. He was always available re cell for our questions and concerns. We highly recommend him....

Dan Arshack really came through for me

I was arrested very unexpectedly after an felony-level accusation by a girlfriend. My world was turned upside-down. I am an M.D. so had much to lose. I retained Dan after a recommendation by a trusted friend. I interviewed a number of lawyers, but I knew when I met Dan that he was the man. Mine wa...s a very difficult case. It got bumped up to the Federal level. Dan was always there by my side, and navigated expertly through very complicated legal waters. I always felt like I had a real professional by my side. His briefs and motions to the Court were very professionally done. I was facing 5 years prison time. I did not get off totally, but considering what I was up against, I was very fortunate to get only probation. I would recommend Dan Arshack to any friend I know that was in trouble and really needed a good lawyer.

Dan's the Man!

Prior to working with Dan, I had only dealt with inept attorneys. Ones that didn't show up in court, ones that did truly heinous things, etc. But Dan... Dan is not only incredibly kind, respectful, patient and gets results but he may just be the last HONEST and PROFESSIONAL attorney in the state. ...I feel bad that I had given him a hard time but I never realized that there were actual good attorneys left that care. My charges were dismissed. I will never be able to apologize enough for giving him a hard time nor thank him enough.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
