Daniel Christopher Lyon

I met Danny with a story so unbelievable that it took the urging of my husband and co-workers for me to even seek an attorney's help. With my entire body shaking and tears pouring down my face, I somehow got my story told between the sobbing. When I finished, I expected a look of doubt on his face bu...t what I saw was concern and compassion. Danny promised at that moment that he would do everything he could for me. Over the next several months Danny listened as I explained, mostly through tears, how women are still mistreated and at a disadvantage in the workplace. Danny listened as I explained how helpless and vulnerable as a women I had felt in certain situations at work and he understood. Every time Danny asked me to go over some part of my story I know he was thinking, 'oh no she's going to cry again', and I usually did. Danny's confidence in me never wavered, not for one second. Knowing that Danny believed in me gave me the strength and confidence to not give up when the attacks came as the other side scrambled for a defense. Danny always answered my emails and calls and made me feel important. Danny never got upset on our conference calls when he could hear the river in the background and I had to put him on hold to catch a trout. What a nice guy! After months of constant encouragement and that unwavering confidence that Danny had in me, I was able to testify for hours and hours and hours, all the while being bullied, belittled, my words twisted and accusations thrown at me from the opposing counsel. I was not a sobbing, shaking, mess, I was strong because I knew Danny believed in me. Now, I'll admit that I did cry after that but just because it was a long stressful day. Telling the truth and doing the right thing has always been very important to me. I asked God for an attorney that felt the same way. I asked for an attorney that cares about people more than money. I was lead to Danny, and I'm pretty sure that God is well pleased with his efforts. I know that I will be forever grateful for how kind Danny was to me and how he went out of his way and above and beyond for me And just like he promised he did everything he could for me and he did great.

I consulted with Daniel Lyon because I needed an expert in employment law to review a separation agreement with my employer. He responded quickly to my initial phone call and he explained that he charged a reasonable set fee to review the documents and consult with me for about an hour to better und...erstand the situation. He accommodated my schedule for this consultation and I emailed him the necessary documents before our meeting so he was prepared as well. During our meeting he asked many questions and asked to see additional documents regarding stock options, my sign on bonus and other compensation. He gave me helpful suggestions for wording changes in the separation agreement that protected me and my reputation as well as secured the full amount of severance. He suggested wording changes in the agreement that enabled me to keep a sign-on bonus that I initially thought I would have to pay back to my employer. He made these wording changes to my separation agreement within a few days of our meeting and without charging me more money than the initial set fee. I'm very grateful for his expertise, honesty and integrity. I certainly highly recommend him for employment law and will be the first lawyer I will call if this need arises again for me.

It is my privilege and honor to recommend Dan Lyon as your attorney. Dan is a very thorough and competent professional who always had my best interests in mind and will yours as well. I always felt like I was in very good hands. He never missed a scheduled meeting and he always took my calls. What ...I especially liked about Dan was his ability to remain calm when I was upset. He would calm me with his tone and calming manner. He is a solid lawyer who practices nothing but the best interest for his clients. I was informed mid May I was in violation of a policy and it was possible I would be terminated. I was referred to Dan, who I called immediately. He gave me excellent advice, was looking out for my best interest from the very start. He gave me his cell phone right away so I could contact him at any point. From the time I was first made aware of my job situation until I was terminated (10 days) he was available, even called to check on me to see how I was doing. His expertise with NC employment law is amazing, he knows what they are looking for and how employers can and will use your words against you. He will not need lead you down the wrong path. His prep work for your case will be well-researched presenting a compelling case on your behalf. I highly recommend Dan Lyon for wrongful termination and if necessary unemployment hearing. I also recommend you listen to him, do what he tells you to do and he will not lead you down the wrong path!
