Helped me get my license back

Dan Bain made me feel comfortable and confident from our first meeting. He gave me a specific list of requirements and made sure it was all in order before submitting it for examination. On the day of my hearing, he again made me feel at ease. He helped me get the clearance I need to reapply for my ...drivers license. Dan is a true professional! I highly recommend him!

Excellent service

Very professional. Always looking to benefit to whom he represents. No doubt about his experience, since he was able to predict which next steps, results and resolutions,could be during the process, He avoided serving straight jail time to a family member, even though the law calls for it,for job ret...ention. Highly recomended.

Thank Goodness...

For attorneys like Dan. He saved my daughter from a felony conviction on her record. Very fair sentencing with his efforts. Knows his way around a court and it's proceedings. So grateful to this man and reasonably priced compared to many.

HONEST , FAIR , EFFECTIVE

I was charged with an assault . I spoke with several other lawyers before I finally talked to Dan Bain. He was the first attorney I spoke with who did not give me some song and dance about how well connected he was . In my initial phone call to him , he spent a long time explaining my situation . I i...mmediately felt comfortable talking with him . I met him at his office and he fully explained my situation to me and gave me reasonable expectations as to what he thought the outcome of my case would be . I hired him , and though he was not the least expensive Attorney i consulted , his rates were fair and he was by no means the highest priced guy . When we walked in court it was obvious that the Court staff , other attorneys and the prosecutor knew this guy and liked him . He told me what our case strategy would be . Remember , he gave me reasonable expectations as to what would happen . He far exceeded those expectations when my case was DISMISSED !

All's Well That Ends Well

Mr. Bain defended me in a legal matter that had a few glitches and surprises along the way. 9 months into the case, we are back on track and probation is slated to be over on the original date, rather than 9 months later.

Avvo Rating

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.
