Great Attorney

Dan has assisted my company in several commercial real estate purchase and lease transactions. He is extremely knowledgeable, responsive and never loses focus of getting the deal done. He has also assisted us in setting up operating agreements for various entities as well as our personal wills. He is... an excellent general business and commercial real estate lawyer and I would highly recommend him.
