The Best Attorney Around!

I live in Colorado and had a hold on my license in Michigan for the last 10 years. I had literally done everything possible to get this resolved. I was referred to Mr. Bain by an attorney in Colorado. Mr. Bain got a hearing scheduled and prepared me perfectly for the hearing. The judge did not ask a ...single question that Mr. Bain had not told me would be asked. The hold was lifted and I had my license back immediately! His prices are reasonable, but his results are unbelievable!

Caring, Honest, Excellent Attorney

My husband and I live in Florida, but when my husband was denied a passport due to an old misdemeanor fine, that was mistakenly listed as a felony, we needed a lawyer quick. I found Mr. Bain on the internet. He told us, no need to come to MI, he would take care of everything. He researched the war...rant, and saved us $2000. I took one phone call, two days,and several emails to resolve the matter. He was able to have the warrant recalled and send us all the documentation, to provide to the Dept of State. We had my husband's passport within the next week. I have never met Mr. Bain, but I felt as though he really cared about my husband and I, that I was in good hands, and could cease worrying it would be handled. I felt that he knew what he was about, and excellent, caring, efficient Attorney. I would recommend him in a heart beat.

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 !

Client conscious lawyer

This lawyer was very knowledgeable with my sons case and went over and beyond what I expected. Because of his ability we were able to lower the charge considerably. I always felt very confident with this lawyer and he was very easy to deal with and always keep me in the loop of things. I would hig...hly recommend this lawyer to anyone of my friends or family.
