About Daniel
Biography
My law firm and I have been developing successful legal strategies for clients for more than 30 years. We fight hard for you and we fight to win.
We work with clients to develop legal strategies intended to set them on a winning course. The firm's key to litigation success has been our ability to clearly explain our client's side of the story and create a path for achieving our client's objectives.
The Law Office of Daniel S. Willard, P.C. represents individuals and businesses in Maryland and D.C. The firm's attorneys work hard to know your business and to understand your legal needs and concerns. The firm has achieved Martindale-Hubbell's highest rating for legal ability.
Daniel S. Willard, P.C. is an independent law firm, located in Bethesda, just inside the Beltway, convenient to Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. We represent primarily individuals and small and mid-size area businesses as well as national businesses that need a presence in Maryland or the District of Columbia.
We work hard to know your business and to understand your legal needs and concerns. Because we're a smaller firm, we can give you the personalized attention you need. At the same time, our fees are advantageous when compared to those of larger fims offering the same areas of practice!
You can find more about me and about the firm on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
