Amazing!!

I used Daniel twice. He did an amazing job and would recommend him to anyone!! Goes above and beyond to help and truly cares about you as a person not just a client!

Very sensative to the clients needs!!!

No one can ever imagine that when they get married, less than ten years later you'll need an attorney to handle your divorce. Getting married is easy, staying together is rough, but getting out of a divorce is terrible. Mr. Sczesny stayed in contact throughout the entire process from befioand even af...ter the end. I cant imagine how terrible this could have been without his expertise and timely response to all my needs. I guarantee you will be pleased with this man representing you. And thank you Mr. Sczesny for making this as painless as possible!!!!

Difficult divorce

Daniel got me through a difficult divorce I thought would never get resolved. He was aggressive when necessary and patient when necessary. He really worked magic to get it resolved. I would recommend him.

Excellent Attorney

Mr Sczesny recently handled a parentage/custody case for us. He was very informative and helpful during this very stressful process. He was always quick to respond to any calls, text or emails answering whatever questions we had. He was very knowledgeable about the process & straight forward with ...us as to what to expect. With his guidance & expertise we were able to take the necessary steps for my son to be awarded custody. I would definitely recommend him and he would be my first call if the need arises again.

Great Representation

I used the services of Mr. Sczesny recently in my divorce proceedings. I was recommended to him by another party. I was very impressed with the way I could contact him via text or phone with questions and with his busy schedule, returned contact that same day. Of course going through any sort of d...ivorce the client is going to be nervous and Mr. Sczesny did a good job keeping the situation light while still giving me great representation. He definitely made me seem like I was his top priority!
