Responsive, Professional, Knowledgable

I have worked with Dan on the sale of my small business. He has been extremely responsive and helpful . He has been a strong advocate for me and the goals I needed to meet as a business owner in transition. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable attorney to work w...ith.

Fast Response, Priceless Advice

Just worked with Dan on a recent acquisition. Dan is a very talented and hard working individual. His excellent bedside manners combined with a strong grasp of knowledge and refined communication skills made him a critical part of our acquisition team.

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.
