Great Guy, Great Lawyer

I recently met Danny at a conference where he was obviously one of the top lawyers in the group. Not only does he display great knowledge to the other attorneys in his field, he obviously cares greatly about his clients and what is truly best for them above his own interests. He makes the good lawy...ers proud.

Giant Heart!!

Mr. Daniel was recommended to me by a friend of mine at a former law firm. I would not hesitate to use him again in the future and I will recommend his services to everyone that I come across in need. He's an extremely humble man and from what I can see the most honest attorney I've ever worked with.... I love the fact that I could get in contact with him whenever I needed and he did not exhibit any kind of attitude whatsoever. Definitely a hard working man and it shows.

DUI and DWI lawyer | Nov 26

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Anyone who is thinking about hiring an attorney to represent them in their DUI case in South Florida should realize that the penalties for DUI are incredibly harsh – especially if you are a professional and care about your license! The arrest is just the beginning... and if you don’t hire Danny it’s only going to go downhill from there. There are a lot of DUI lawyers in this town, but I highly recommend that before you hire a cheap DUI attorney or try to handle your case yourself, you talk to Danny first. There are plenty of other lawyers on the internet or in “El Clarin” - you know, the ones that take any case that come through the door. Danny is an attorney that specializes in DUI. He is the Attorney that Attorneys and other professionals call when they get in trouble – that should give you a hint as to the quality of his representation. However, don't call Danny if what you are looking for is a "$500 discount DUI attorney." Danny doesn't discount his fees--he doesn't need to."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
