About Daniel

As a member of one of the noblest of the public service professions, I care and believe that every person who needs some type of legal service, whether it be mere legal advice, drafting of a simple will or deed, or legal representation in a matter, deserves the best. With my years of experience working in government and the private sector, and in various areas of law, ranging from criminal to personal injury, family law to probate, real estate to contracts, trials to appellate work, I bring a wealth of knowledge, training, and experience to the table. And, as I have had to work hard for what I have achieved, I know what perseverance and tolerance of less than ideal circumstances can bring to a person if they wait long enough.

      Review Daniel Rice

      Excellent Attorney

      Posted by

      I hired Mr. Rice to assist in my divorce and he was phenomenal. Very efficient, speedy response times, and showed a true dedication to his client. I would not suggest any areas of improvement, only to say that he is an amazing lawyer! I would highly recommend him to anyone.

      Helped with my will

      Posted by

      I contacted Mr Rice to help with my will. I did not know how to write a will. He told the steps that would need to be done and gave me a little bit of prep work. Then he prepared the actual will. I then got it notarized. Done! It was easy and fast! Thanks Mr Rice!!
      Daniel Rice's response: Thank you for the review, but unfortunately, I do not remember assisting you with any will. Do you possibly have the wrong attorney?

      My highest recommendation goes to Daniel Rice.

      Posted by

      I have worked with Mr. Rice on both family and estate law cases. He is my preferred source for all legal matters. He will take the time needed to thoroughly research your case and is both trustworthy and responsive. With Mr. Rice, you can be assured that if he is providing legal advice that it is accurate.

      Excellent Attorney

      Posted by

      Mr. Rice is an attorney who cares about his clients. He listened to our concerns and made sure they were all addressed. I was amazed at how quickly and accurately our wills were prepared. I highly recommend Mr. Rice and can't thank him enough for his service.

      Re-write wills for multiple family mambers

      Posted by

      Mr. Rice handled a re-write of wills for several family members at one time. He listened to the concerns of all and offered sound advise on how to construct each will so it would stand any legal challange. I would have no problem recomending him in estate planning and preperation.

      I really enjoyed working with this lawyer

      Posted by

      Daniel helped me through my divorce/ custody proceedings. He is respectable, professional but was also sympathetic towards me through the duration of the case. I would use him again in the future, though I hope to not have to.

      Awesome Attorney!!!

      Posted by

      Daniel Rice is kind, personable, and professional. He is very knowledgable and timely and kept me informed through the whole process. Divorce is not an easy thing to go through, but having an attorney like Mr. Rice, made the experience much easier. You can easily tell that he takes much pride in his work and goes above and beyond for his clients. I would recommend him to anyone.

      Knowledgeable and Quick to Respond to Questions

      Posted by

      I highly recommend Daniel Rice! He helped me with divorce proceedings, which can get rather sticky and complicated. He has a firm grasp of the law as well as which way judges tend to rule in certain situations. He gave me detailed, helpful advice, and he responded to emailed questions promptly, usually on the same day.

      Two thumbs up!!

      Posted by

      Daniel has gone above and beyond to help my family through a difficult time and case. I would consider myself to have a general concept of family law but Daniel really knew his stuff. He was also easy to reach and did a GREAT JOB explaning things on a level that we all could understand. In my previous dealings with attorneys, I have been left with unfufilled expectations and empty pockets. DANIEL REALLY IS PASSIONATE ABOUT WHAT HE DOES AND ABOUT YOUR SITUATION AND IT SHOWS! I give him 2 thumbs up!!!

      Trust is important

      Posted by

      The only thing that I did not like about this lawyer was that I felt that he was not impartial in my case. I felt that he lacked profesionalism and based opinions about others that were incorrect. I felt like I could no longer trust him.
