Aggressive, Swift and Successful

I hired Mr. McBreen as a litigator based on some references and I was very pleased with the outcome. He communicated with me all the way through the process and acted exactly as I would want my attorney to act when litigating against a fraudulent business. He was extremely knowledgeable and aggress...ive, which led to a very quick resolution in my case. In the event that I choose to litigate again, there is no questions that I will be calling Mr. McBreen to lead the way.

Civil Litigation

I hired Mr. McBreen to help me with a civil case in 2012. Dan was very knowledgeable and extremely professional. He was able to assist me in a favorable outcome. His fees were very cost effective compared to another attorney I interviewed.

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.
