Excellent Attorney

I have worked with Dan Tota and Al Durante on a number of professional and personal matters over the past few years and have been extremely pleased with their services. Dan has represented me on multiple merger and acquisition deals as both a seller and buyer. His expertise and guidance help me nav...igate complex and challenging terms, while maintaining my best interests as well as the integrity of the deals at large. I highly recommend this firm and will continue to use them both personally and professionally.

Wonderful real estate attorney

Dan Tota assisted us with the purchase of our first home. He was wonderful to work with thoroughly walking us through the process and answering all our questions along the way. His team was also equally helpful and knowledgeable.

The best of the best!

Dan Tota represented us during the purchase of our first home. He and his firm could not have been more easy to work with, pleasant, on-the-ball and knowledgeable. He truly made us feel at ease during a very stressful time, and took the time to walk us through the process with a confidence that was v...ery reassuring. We would hire Dan again in a heartbeat. Wonderful experience!

Dan Tota

Daniel Tota represented us on a complex and difficult high-value real estate transaction. He was and is superb. We will be returning to him and his firm for years to come on whatever issue arises. We have been astonished by his competence and integrity. He ranks among the very best attorneys we have ...ever encountered. His fees are a fraction of his worth.

Fantastic communication! Highly recommend!

I met with Dan to review a problematic real estate transaction that I am involved in because my current attorney has been less than responsive. He was extremely professional and thorough even though I was not his client. He met with me for over an hour to review my documentation and discuss my situat...ion until I had a good understanding of what my options were even if I kept my current attorney. I am truly appreciative of the time and patience he had with me and I know I will be hiring him in the near future!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I recently had the opportunity to work with Dan on a very difficult short sale transaction in which he represented the seller. Dan was not only pleasant to work with but also very knowledgeable in this area. In addition to the short sale situation, there were other judgments that needed to be taken care of. Dan dealt with these other issues competently and efficiently which despite the difficult nature of this deal facilitated a very smooth closing. I welcome the opportunity to work with Dan again."

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.
