Extremely Competent

Dan represented me in a Federal suit against a finance company and repossession company who violated numerous consumer protection laws. His representation and advocacy is top notch and no one out there understands the consumer laws better.

Compassionate Caring Service

Attorney Dan Myers and his staff displayed utmost professionalism and superb legal assistance in resolving my legal matters after a construction mishap by the contractor. I was overwhelmed with concern and trying to resolve the matter on my own was not going to happen. I would highly recommend the ...firm of Attorney Myers to anyone seeking help with construction mishaps and, he helped me find resolution and peace of mind.

Roofing Job Gone Wrong

Dan was referred to us by a close friend. He is very knowledgeable about consumer protection and handled our challenging case well. The wheels of justice do turn slowly, but Dan and his team hung in there with us! He is honest and communicated the realities of our litigation and achieved a favora...ble outcome for us. We appreciate all he did on our behalf!

Best Consumer Law Attorney in the Business

I retained Dan to represent me regarding a consumer law and breach of contract claim related to a custom-made suit retailer who failed to deliver part of my order after I had paid for it. Dan was very professional, well prepared, diligent, and confident in court. Although my claim was relatively m...inor (just over $1,000), Dan still took the matter very seriously, and his dedication paid off with a judgment more than 7 times my out of pocket losses. I would recommend anyone with a consumer law issue to contact Dan without hesitation!

Replied last November 3, 2016

While I appreciate and am flattered by the comment and its title, ethical rules require me to make the following statement: This is the result of one case and only one case based on the specific facts in that case. Results on this case or others are not indicative of other cases or future performance. Each case is different. Additionally, while this person believes I am the best consumer law attorney in the business, that claim is unverifiable.
