Fabulous Labor Lawyer
I was referred to Dan by friends. Hiring an employment lawyer was new territory for me and I was looking for someone who was both assertive and collaborative. Dan was perfect. He listened to my situation, put together a compelling argument and also kept my expectations realistic. In the end, he got me a fair settlement without ruffling the employer's feathers. I would recommend him to my family and friends, should the need arise.

Excellent Champion for Clients
I was referred to Dan by the New York City Bar Legal Referral Service, and feel I lucked out. He listened to my situation, advised on whether he felt I had a legitimate case, and worked closely with me towards a resolution. In the end, I feel I was made whole, and for that I'm incredibly grateful.

Very lucky to have Dan Braverman on my side.
I was referred to Dan Braverman by a friend and her husband who had great success with him. I was quite nervous because I had never hired an attorney before. My work situation was causing extreme stress and had come to a breaking point. From the very first call, Dan was attentive, thorough and straight-forward. He talked me through all my options and was incredibly patient. I was so nervous about taking action against my employer. I am so glad I took the plunge with Dan Braverman. He fought for me and managed to get me a comfortable severance and the satisfaction of exiting the job with my dignity and monetary compensation that I deserved. I will refer him to everyone I know who needs a savvy lawyer on their side.

Highly recommend
Daniel's help was indispensable to me considering that my company offered only 6 weeks of severance and cut off my health insurance coverage. Daniel pointed out the aspects of my work environment which were not met by my former company and helped to negotiate additional 3 months of severance as well as 4 months of health insurance. This made tremendous difference during difficult times for me and I highly recommend Daniel for such matters.

Dan Saved My Family
In the summer of 2022, I was let go by my company before I even started. With Dan's help, I was able to persuade the company to give me a generous payment to keep my family afloat during a challenging time. Without Dan's patience and expertise of employment law, this positive outcome would not have occurred. I will be forever grateful for his work on my issue. 5/5 highly recommend.

Expertise and Compassion!!!
Dan has represented and supported me on multiple occasions, both issues big and small. He never fails to impress with his expertise and keen legal insights, and even more importantly he never forgets you are a person and kindness matters, Despite always being available for me and going above and beyond, Dan is very generous with his time and fair with his rates!

Got me additional 3 months
Dan, who I know as an acquaintance for a long time, actually got me an extra 3 months of severance from my company, beyond the original offer. I was very nervous about the whole process and he and his team were very professional and responsive. Most importantly, I can now take a deep breath after the settlement. Highly recommend Dan & team.

Excellent Lawyer - Outstanding Experience - Beyond grateful for Daniel Braverman
Daniel was incredible from the moment I reached out, until a fair settlement was reached with my former employer. Daniel was the perfect balance of professional and personal. He contacted me the same day, I inquired for his help. Immediately made me feel better, about a situation, that I felt couldn’t get any worse. He always had my best interest in mind, but more than that, he checked in with me frequently to see how I was doing emotionally. A work divorce can be difficult to say the least, especially when one of the parties if being treated unfairly. He gave me and my family the piece of mind we needed during and extremely tough time. I never questioned his support or professional persistence to resolve my situation, quickly and fairly. I would recommend his services to anyone questioning, wether or not, you were treated fairly and most importantly legally. It’s wonderful to know there’s people like Daniel who are relentlessly advocating for employees rights. Incredibly grateful Daniel, thank you!

A true lawyer who gets you results.
Dan is the true essence of a lawyer who zealously advocates for his clients. His empathy and desire to help his clients pushes him to relentlessly get them the best settlement. Dan helped me get compensated where I was wronged. Despite much resistance, he didn’t give up and pushed forward to get me the justice I deserve.

Trusted adviser and advocate!
This is not the first time I’ve turned to Dan for trusted counsel — and true to form he is just as supportive and wise as ever. Unlike many other attorneys — Dan will try to understand you and your situation on a human level — serving your interests with empathy, humility and compassion; and it makes a huge difference, Dan is the man!

BEST LAWYER
Dan Braverman was amazing to work with. I was in a very horrible position and Dan assured me every step of the way. Dan explained the proccesses in full detail and believed in me. I never had to hire an attorney before and had no idea what to expect. Working with Dan was such a pleasure and he made the experience so much easier . Dan was not only my lawyer but a friend . I would highly recommend Dan to anyone I know. Dan is compassionate , truthful, honest , understanding , patient and gets the job done .

You will feel you are working with a friend
I worked with Dan on both sides of an issue now, both as an employee and an employer, and both times I found Dan being the opposite of the typical stereotype of the lawyers. Dan went above and beyond explaining the issues to me, acted more like a friend than a hired professional. The communication from Dan was always top notch, VERY timely and organized, very friendly and pleasant. Dan was very transparent and showed me his communication with the adversary's legal team, and advised me to copy both for the sake of efficiency, so I had full trust in all his actions. Dan shines in the areas specific to NYC law and if you are dealing with any labor issues in this city you need an attorney knowing the technicalities of the city laws. I will recommend Dan to all my friends and will not hesitate to use his services again.

Great attorney
Dan did a fantastic job negotiating a separation agreement for me. He walked me through every step of the process. I found his knowledge and approach to be perfect and he was able to ultimately deliver a great result. I'd highly recommend working with Dan!
