A Life Saver

Daniel Myshin is the sort of lawyer you want on your side. Dan is very knowledgeable and professional. He was a calm, powerful ally in a difficult situation. I could not have asked for a better outcome. As a professional myself, I always look for the best people to be on my business team. Dan is... number one on my list of lawyers.

Dan Myshin

Concerned and attentive to my issues. Dan is very responsive to your questions and needs while returning pjhone calls promptly. Although, in most cases, I needed not to call as he kept me aware of the legal process without me asking.

Great lawyer

I made a foolish mistake and Dan was able to soften the blow. He was very knowable and respected by the other lawyers and the judge. I liked that he was always honest with me.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have worked with Dan on several large multi-defendant Federal Indictments in the Middle District of Pennsylvania. Aside from being an excellent trial lawyer, Dan is very well versed and competent in Federal Criminal Law. While I have not worked with Dan on other kinds of cases, it is clear that he is an intelligent and knowledgeable lawyer and I trust this crosses over into his other areas of practice. I would hire Dan without hesitation and strongly recommend that you will not find a better, more aggressive and decent attorney."

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.
