Review for Dan

Dan has a knack of making you comfortable the minute you see his friendly and personable self. He helped me through an issue involving a clash between domestic laws of two countries and differences of interpretation of international law, especially Vienna Convention on Diplomatic and Consular relatio...ns. His kind, reassuring yet confident manner impressed me at the beginning. He was thorough with his legal knowledge, always had a clear strategy and communicated it clearly to all stake holders involved. He had great skill for public dissemination of our position and dealt with international media on my behalf. His primary interest was my welfare and he was decisive and aggressive when it came to protecting it, despite pressure from various quarters. He was also available at any hour to talk to me or consult others, considering we were in the midst of an international issue. Dan was very resourceful and he had access to the best of experts in every field. I was thoroughly satisfied with his legal counsel and his defence of my case and would whole heartedly and confidently recommend him.

Excellent Representation

I consider Dan Arshack more than just my attorney, but my friend. I was in a very difficult position when I was arrested and Dan calmed me down and walked me through what turned out to be a very complex and intimidating case. His briefs and motions to the court were meticulously prepared and delivere...d. I was very impressed by his legal acumen. I am a physician, so had much to lose. I consulted with a number of lawyers before I chose Dan. He has a very calming presence and knows how to talk to judges and opposing attorneys. His staff was very professional also. I hope I never need his criminal-law services again, but I would highly recommend him to anyone that does.

A lawyer that cares about his clients best interest

When your lawyer tells you "It is not in your best interest to go to trail", even though by going to trail he makes a lot more $$$$. Now that is a lawyer you can trust. That alone would be reason enough to recommend him to anyone. When it is your well being on the line and your lawyer puts it before ...his bank account, that is a individual that is true to their profession. You can count on getting the best possible representation from someone like that. This is what Dan Arshack did for me. I truly be leave that Mr. Arshack did his very best, considering the situation I was in. I would recommend him to anyone.

The best lawyer I could have ever asked for

I am a 62 year old man, never arrested before and was accused of assaulting a woman that I had lived with on and off for 8 years. I was arrested and charged with assult. Although I could have pled to a violation, we chose to go to trial to protect my good name. Dan was the best. First, Dan took t...he time to understand my case. He had a total grasp of the details and was able to present them in a clear understandable way. The net result. NOT GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS. I can’t give him a higher recommendation and I would trust him with my life.

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.
