Provided great legal help during Order of Protection trial

I hired Dan Perlman during my recent civil court case. My wife had obtained an Order of Protection, and was trying to have me excluded from our marital home—and worst of all, our 3 young children—for 2 years (the maximum allowable period). His representation was great: we took it to trial an...d prevailed—my wife’s petition was ultimately dismissed. Today, I have shared physical custody of our children, and I couldn’t be happier. Dan's service was first-rate. He continually apprised me of all my options—and was always aggressive, and capable. Most importantly, he was very understanding, and made me feel like my case was always manageable—which was exactly what I needed during one of the most stressful times of my life. I’d recommend Daniel Perlman's services to anyone in a similar situation.

Responsible and Understanding

I was seeking child support from my ex-husband in a highly contested divorce. Daniel was fluent in the law and helped me win a substantial settlement. I was grateful that Daniel was calm, understanding and knowledgeable.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked together with Mr. Perlman as co counsel and after he relocated from my area, Syracuse NY, I retained him to do some work for my brother's company. I have provided a client endorsement too. I can say that Mr. Perlman's fearlessness in tackling complex legal issues and willingness to actually litigate criminal, divorce and civil matters has always impressed me."

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.
