      Review Daniel Romano

      Got money from Detroit even with bankruptcy

      Posted by

      He told us what would happen throughout, got an arbitration award from Detroit before bankruptcy and refused to take less when Detroit tried to get us to. He told us we were going to get them to pay 100% on Our case against the police. He was right! He knows the law and is always nice. Busy guy but he will get back to you. No BS

      True advocate. Aggressive, caring, and tireless fighter for me

      Posted by

      Did an amazing job. Two other lawyers told me that my injury was not serious enough to reach the Michigan Injury threshold. I almost ran out of time but made one last attempt with Romano Law. They filed just In time and I was awarded the other guy's insurance limits

      Great Trucking Accident lawyer

      Posted by

      Romano did an outstanding job recovering money for my family when the trucking company did not want to take responsibility. Very tough and willing to go all the way

      Wrongful Arrest

      Posted by

      wrongfully arrested, 3 days in jail, charges dropped. I contacted Romano Law and they sued the police for me. I received a large settlement for the pain and misery, loss of employment for my illegal arrest and detainment! Romano restored my faith in the justice system but never in the police!

      Great Law Firm

      Posted by

      A few months back I made some statements about Mr.Romano and his firm that were not true. I used Mr.Romano and his firm in a PIP case against AAA. My case was a hard case due to various facts about me. Mr.Romano and his firm did a great job on my case with what they had to work with. I would recommend Mr.Romano and all the lawyers at his firm to anyone. They are all very nice people. No one is making me write this,I just want to make things right about a great man and a great firm.

      Great lawyers to fight the police

      Posted by

      Aggressive, true advocate who cares for the client. Excellent and responsive support staff He took on the City of Detroit and made them pay for what their cops did to me.

      Great Lawyer

      Posted by

      This is the greatest lawyer I have ever met. Mr Romano and his law firm picked up my case after my previous lawyer dropped the ball and said nothing more could be done for me. Mr.Romano and his law firm are awesome. I do not know how to explain it they did more for my case in less than a month than my previous lawyer did in 2 and a half years. If you want quality caring results in your time of need go with Mr. Romano and his law firm you will be getting the best there is.

      WORST LAWYER IN MICHIGAN

      Posted by

      This law office is a joke. As a business owner for the past 15 years, I have never experienced such lack of expertise when it comes to legal assistance. I have no earthly idea on how the others reviewed this person's business and put such nonsense. My experience with this firm over the last year was horrific. No one called and or even cared when my husband and I would combat them on not keeping up with our health status (dr. visits.) etc....the case as a whole. We never met Daniel G. Romano moreover recently found out he was our lawyer not the "glorified male receptionist" who couldn't cut it as a real lawyer and posing as our attorney. I thought living in Michigan was bad as a southerner... well I gotta say this law firm places the cherry on top of the whip cream! I never write reviews, but I have to do my duty as a person and let others know you will get the "run around" here. Eventually, they will close your case and say good luck with living. May G-d have mercy when it's Daniel G. Romano and his businesses time to be judged.
      Daniel Romano's response: I have no idea who this person is but he is a coward. The person does not identify himself and likely is not a client, but a disgruntled competitor. The only case we lose are those where people who lie to us or get caught on video doing things that they say they say they cannot do. If this coward is real, the he is likely someone who had a bad result due to his bad acts or we withdrew because he lied

      Attorney walk off the case right in the middle .....

      Posted by

      I had the worst experience of my life with this firm. I spoke to Mr. Romano and he agreed his firm would handle my personal injury case on a contingency bases. I was never really defended or advised on anything. After Katrina received all of my documentation , and gave it to the other attorney, she basically walked off the case right in the middle of the settlement, jeopardizing my case. And I never received a dime. I was left with medical bills, and pain and suffering from the injury. My case was not handled with my best interest in mind. Please if you want your case to be handle right I would suggest finding someone else.
      Daniel Romano's response: We withdraw from cases where people lie to us because we do not tolerate fraud. Probably this post is by someone of the above ilk

      I agree

      Posted by

      I hired this firm in the Fall of 2009 for a PIP case against my auto insurance company. I am disabled for life from this accident and suffered brain damage and it made my mental health worse. I turned over all bills I incurred and my caregivers submitted attendant care and they never got paid a penny.They do not communicate with you at all, I used to call and leave messages all the time and no one would answer. When I did get someone on the phone they were really rude.
      Daniel Romano's response: This does not happen in our cases, EVER, UNLESS SOMEONE IS NOT TELLING THE TRUTH. We represent thousands of people. Unfortunately, the happy ones seldom post

      Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

      Dan Ramano is a leading authority in the tough field of police misconduct and civil rights. He and his team fight for those who have been betrayed by those in positions of authority. He is a skilled trial lawyer who has the respect of other lawyers and has obtained excellent results for his clients.

      Mark Bello, Personal injury Attorney on Oct 29, 2008
      Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

      Dan Romano is an intelligent and aggressive advocate for his clients. He is passionate in his quest for civil justice for the injured and disabled and has also had significant results in police misconduct situations. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking justice in a battle with big business or insurance or the government.
