Knowledgeable and Savvy Attorney
Daniel handled a case for my son, and the whole time he reassured my son and I we had nothing to worry about. Our case was a joke and eventually was dismissed. His overall demeanor and professionalism was exactly what we needed in our time of need.

Dan is on my speed-dial for a reason!
Dan made me feel at ease over my case. The first time I had a consultation, he agreed to meet me at his office after hours as I couldn't get out of work early enough. He listened to my side and clearly explained to me what to expect regarding my case, how he planned on approaching it and also provi...

Not Happy with services at all!
I had a Order of protection case that I had Dan taking care of. At first I felt comfortable with Dan, but as the case moved forward, I felt less and less happy with him. The only regret I have at this point is ever hiring him in the first place. I would never recommend him to anyone!!!

Replied last January 29, 2013This post is from a client who already the Emergency Order of Protection (EOP) entered against him when he retained me. As is always my practice, the objectives of the representation were clearly established at the initial consultation. They were: Defend or vacate the EOP, protect the client from entry of a Plenary Order of Protection, secure access to the Petitioner's home to retrieve all of his personal belongings, secure the release of the client's rifle and FOID Card that were seized by the police, and avoid or defend any separate claims for back rent by the Petitioner. Every single objective, without exception, was achieved. We ultimately signed an Agreed Order disposing of the case by way of a Civil No-Contact Order that would not be entered against his record. The EOP was vacated, no Plenary Order was entered, I secured his repeated acess to the home (well beyond the limited period prescribed in the statute), all of his personal property was retrieved, as were the gun and FOID card, and he paid nothing to Petitioner on her separate claims for back rent. As I believe input from all clients is important, and in keeping with my efforts to always meet client expectations, I emailed a request to find out why he was dissatisfied with my services. No reply was ever received.

Very Knowledgeable
Mr. Galivan is an excellent, honest lawyer. He was always accessible to answer any questions that I had throughout the process and always kept me informed. He handled several different matters for me that demonstrated his broad knowledge of different areas of the law.

Traffic Violation
Mr Galivan was recommended to me by a trusted friend. He has gone out of his way to assist me and my family while I was in the hospital due to an automobile accident and unable to communicate. My case has been going on for some time only because he is not satisfied with the lack of information and...
