Dan regards his law clerk experience at Oliver, Walker and Wilson as absolutely invaluable.

Dan earned several awards during law school. No other award is more cherished by Dan that the Order of Barristers. The Order of Barristers is given to only ten students in each graduating class. It is for excellence in moot court. During law school Dan showed his proficiency in the courtroom by winning the regional moot court competition. While in law school Dan also received the R.

Dan graduated from law school in 1997 and later joined Oliver, Walker, Wilson as an associate attorney. In August of 1998 Dan accepted a new position as an attorney with the law firm of Inglish and Monaco, P.C. in Lake Ozark, Missouri. After working for three years with Lewis Bridges and Tim Cisar in the Lake Ozark office of Inglish and Monaco, Dan, Lew and Tim decided to form their own practice.

In November of 2001 Bridges, Cisar and Mizell, LLC opened for business. Dan was extremely proud to be a named partner in his own law firm. Bridges, Cisar and Mizell, LLC initially practiced out of the Cliffside Center in Lake Ozark. However, the success of the firm allowed Bridges, Cisar and Mizell, LLC to build its own law office building in 2004. Bridges, Cisar and Mizell, LLC moved into the new space at 750 Bagnell Dam Boulevard in Lake Ozark in October of 2004.

Dan's practice continued to grow throughout the first decade of the new millennium. Dan has always accepted automobile accident cases, workers' compensation cases, boat accident cases, slip and fall claims, wrongful death claims and other tort claims.

Dan and his family decided to relocate to Lebanon, Missouri in May of 2007. Dan purchased Darrell Deputy's law office at 120 East Second Street in Lebanon, Missouri in June, 2007. After careful deliberation, Darrell and Dan entered into an agreement whereby Dan would purchase Darrell's law practice. While Darrell continues to actively practice law in Lebanon, it is Darrell's intention to slowly and gracefully transition to a more limited role in Deputy and Mizell.

Under Dan's management of Deputy and Mizell, LLC the firm has grown exponentially. 2008 saw the opening of a new location at 16 Camden County Northeast in Camdenton, Missouri. In 2011 the firm purchased Kerry Rowden's law practice in Tuscumbia, Missouri. Kerry Rowden became the Associate Circuit Judge in Maries County, Missouri.
