Dan was wonderful in setting my mind at ease!

Dan was very polite and respectful throughout our entire consultation. He reassured me that I have no reason to stress myself or worry over my situation. I was making myself physically sick from all the stress even though I was the victim and being threatened. He took all my stress from the situation... by breaking down the entire situation and explaining anything I needed to know. I would completely recommend Dan to anyone and everyone that is in need of any legal help. I had been advised by a different attorney before Dan and the other lawyer told me that "I" was in huge trouble and "I" the victim had to prove my innocence, even when the police already had all that information that they needed. The 1st attorney was telling me that it was going to cost several thousands of dollars to just to represent me even though the evidence was already there. I felt as if a 2nd opinion was needed and that is when I contacted Dan. He answered immediately and the consultation was set up quickly. He listened to all that I had to say about the situation and he never showed any disrespect. I would recommend him to anyone for any situation, I was very impressed with his manner and knowledge of the situation and finally I can sleep peacefully as an innocent citizen again. Thanks so much for just your time talking to me and reassuring me again!

  • 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.
