A job exceeding anyones expectations WELL DONE!

Dan Policastro performed an amazing job for me and retrieved money I never knew if I could reclaim. He tracked down the person in question who took off to another state and got a settlement for me. He sincerely cared about this wrongdoing and it showed in his efforts. A previous lawyer would not t...ake the case, and my friends [well meaning] said I would never get money back! Thanks to Dan's legal talent and determination, and my stubbornness, he got the job done.

Family lawyer | Jun 03

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I highly endorse Dan Policastro! I am a Board Certified Family Law attorney with 25 years of experience that practices in Texas. My client desperately needed the help of a Florida attorney. We needed to confirm Florida law on a family law subject, and discuss litigation strategy. We were recommended to another attorney in Florida. That attorney has years of experience and is Board Certified, but she did NOT know what she was talking about. She didn't know the basics of jurisdiction and couldn't think outside the box. That caused me to search the market for other attorneys. I scoured several attorney websites, and will tell you, it's frightening how many have bad information on them. Then I found Dan. Dan's website had the correct law on it and when I consulted with him, he was extremely impressive with the amount of knowledge he had. Moreover, Dan is extremely ethical, and turned down the offer of work because he advised a less expensive route for my client to use."

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.
