Beyond grateful for Dan!

After a lot of research and consulting other lawyers I hired Dan, he is amazing at what he does and I loved that he was very blunt and honest about possible outcomes and the steps that would need to be taken to have a successful outcome. He made the reinstatement process for my license so simple and ...easy. He helps to guide you the entire time. His office is amazing! Because of Dan and his team I was able to successfully reinstate my license from out of state. I will forever refer anyone that needs help to Dan and his team! Thank you for being a trustworthy and honest person and attorney! Thank you again Dan!!!

License Reinstatement WIN!

Mr. Geherin and his team were very helpful in helping me navigate the license reinstatement process. They made it very clear what I needed to do in order to put myself in the best position possible for the outcome that I wanted. They made sure I was in front of the right person to hear my case and ...was able to walk out of my hearing with a WIN!

Thank you so much Dan

I hired Dan because I was wrongfully accused of a crime. Dan advised me at every decision point, protected me from myself when I would've done or said something unhelpful to my case, and was my contact point throughout the investigation. I can say without a doubt I would not have had the same outcome... if I hadn't of hired him. All I can do now, as a thank you to him and his office, is make sure anyone else who finds themselves in an unfortunate circumstance similar to mine knows that he's the right guy to call.

Dan The Man

If you value honesty and transparency this is the lawyer for you. Dan was excellent in trial and shows passion for his clients in and out of the courtroom. With his years of experience he outlines your personal options and his profesional recommendation based on the terms of your case. In my own... situation he dealt with my stress and uncertanty with blunt honesty, in a way that actually helped. He always reminded me to check in with him if I have any concerns and would listen when I brought them up. I highly recommend his legal services to anyone in need of counsel.

helpful and straight forward

As a non US-citizen from Europe Daniel helped me with my DUI. Communication was always respectful, clear, understandable and straight forward with the next steps. Response time was excellent and I mostly got response on emails after office hours ever time. Being a foreign, busy engineer without sign...al at daytime this was very helpful. He clearly pointed me out the options that I had in my case and the whole process ran like he predicted in the previous conversations. My early probation discharge issue with the local probation officers was resolved within one day due to his good network in the Ann Arbor area.
