Outstanding Lawyer and Advocate

Dan was hired to handle a very serious three-year-old felony gun case that had been previously screwed up by a different lawyer. Dan came on board, last minute, knowing the challenges he faced from the errors of the prior lawyer as well as the tight timeframe to prepare. He was ready to fight from th...e start. His experience, his energy and his genuine concern for his client led to an incredible performance in court and ultimately the suppression of the gun and dismissed indictment. He worked as part of a team, working well with a co-defendant’s attorney as well as with the client and family. After the previous terrible experience with the prior lawyer, it was refreshing and assuring to know Dan was willing to listen and collaborate, while using his experience to execute an excellent defense. We would highly recommend Dan Smalls and his law office. His staff are highly knowledgeable and experienced, and together they all make an outstanding team.

Thee absolute worst

You’re better getting a public defender and after firing him I found he withheld valuable information.It’s not a fact I believe he’s selling his own people out.

The absolute best lawyer I ever had

Mr. Smalls is the best lawyer I ever retained. Every single case that he has taken for me he has been honest and goes way above and beyond to represent every case. He is more than fair with his prices and always works out a payment arrangement if I didn’t have the full amount right away and he would ...still go above and beyond to win my cases. I will never use another lawyer only Mr. Smalls.

Not a smart choice

Mr. Smalls was not honest . He did very little work on my case and charged alot of money

Posted by anonymous | March 23, 2019 | Hired Attorney

Mr. Smalls is very unprofessional.

I hired Mr. Smalls and he almost never communicated with me about my case. I always had to chase him down to find out what was going on with my case. I paid him up front and he almost never performed his duties. It took forever for him to handle my case and everytime I called all he had was excuses. ...I would definitely not recommend him for any case whether it be small or large. He is very umproffesional. I should have never paid him upfront until I was sure he handled my case. It seems as if he took my money and then left me out in the wind.
