Responsive Lawyer
Daniel was responsive to all my many questions and helped walk me through the process. Fought hard for my case and we had a great outcome. Hopefully I never need to use him again but I recommend him to anyone who does!

Thankful for my peace of mind
Mr. Sullivan and his firm have been nothing but a godsend for me and my daughter. My mother found him for me when I was faced with a difficult situation in relation to the father of my child and custody and he had all of the answers whether they were good, bad, or ugly he and his staff had them. I am thankful that they never made me feel anything but like they were my own family fighting for me. Use them and you will not be dissapointed. I am a living witness as a young single mother what they did for me no one else could have done by the grace of God.
