About Daniel
Biography
I'm a criminal defense trial lawyer who has first chaired dozens of jury trials to verdict in the last 6 years. That is on top of the hundreds of bench trials and contested hearings decided by a judge alone that I have conducted since beginning my career in McHenry County in 2015. I am now a resident of Crystal Lake, Illinois and have made McHenry County my home. I am committed to advocating for my clients to protect their rights from the government throughout all stages of the criminal process. I am also a strong advocate for victims of domestic violece in order of protection proceedings for petitioners and respondents. If your case involves the police, there is a good chance that I am the lawyer for you. Call me at.

Proven Defense Attorney
As an attorney myself, I have known and worked with Dan Nold for six years. Dan is attentive to his clients’ needs. He is a very skilled and successful trial lawyer. I would not hesitate to refer any of my own clients with criminal defense issues to Dan.

THE BEST traffic attorney around!
This attorney went to court for me for tickets that took a YEAR to dismiss! Consistently kept up with the court dates and ended up with fantastic results in the very end. If you got tickets and want a piece of mind he’s your guy!

A Little Too Much Fun
I highly recommend Donahue and Walsh for any severe traffic issues. I had a little too much fun in my sports car and was faced with a Misdemeanor A excessive speeding charge. Dan got me out of a jam.

Dan is an amazing lawyer. He helped me out big time. Always kept me in the loop with what was going on. I never felt stressed and would hire him everytime.
Daniel Lester Nold's Lawyer Endorsements
"Nold and I have tried a lot of cases together in the past. He is good with clients, works his files and is a tough negotiator."
"I've seen Dan operate in the courtroom and once appealed a case he worked on. As much as I tried, I couldn't find even a minor issue with his work on the case. When my kid gets arrested I'll have no problem sending him to Nold for help. You shouldn't have any problem send yours to Dan, either."
"Dan is highly motivated to get his clients the best results he can. He is an eager trial attorney willing to fight for the rights of his clients. He is knowledgeable in the areas of DUI, Domestic Battery and Orders of Protection."
