On Point!

I am a small business owner that has been fortunate enough to experience significant growth over the last two years. With growth comes growing pains and Dan has been able to walk me through them all. He has helped me with a business purchase transaction and several other agreements to help keep me pr...otected. Thank you Dan for the impeccable follow up and attention to detail!

This is the Business Attorney you want on your side!

Dan was professional and knowledgeable with the issue we brought to him. He gave us realistic expectations on the amount of time and money it would take to achieve different results. He didn't try and push us to move forward, he gave the pros and cons of both sides and answers to all of our questions.... We would not hesitate to refer him to our family and friends.

Great Business Lawyer

I've used Dan Etlinger's expertise in two business situations and both times he has been informative, to the point, strategic, realistic and practical. His advice was spot on (even if it wasn't what I wanted) but he gave me step by step instructions on what would occur and that's what occurred. I wou...ld highly recommend him to any business owner that has a situation they want to handle properly and to good completion.

Saved my partnership agreement

Mr. Etlinger offered invaluable advice for setting up my partnership agreement, and suggested a few items to protect each of the partners. Thinks like a business owner, and very thorogh in his analysis.

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.
