About Daniel
Biography
I earned bachelors degrees in business and Spanish from Utah State University. I've lived in Argentinaand in Mexico. I graduated from The University Of Houston law school in 1996 and began working for the Law Offices of Bernardo Eureste, where I did workers compensation litigation.
In March of 1998, I spun off and created my own firm. We started handling primarily workers compensation claims. In 2006 we diversified into handling all types of accident cases, criminal defense, family law and immigration. I have been a board member of Workers' Compensation Section of the Texas State Bar since 2011. I have lectured annually at the Advanced Workers' Compensation seminar and various other seminars since 2005.
I have a network of attorneys that I work closely with that allow us to handle most types of cases. I am fluent in Spanish as is the majority of my staff. If you have a legal question or need assistance give us a call.

Cleaning Up My Immigration
I came to their office after a recommendation due to some problems I was having. They were able to fix everything quickly. Should have sought out the help sooner, it would have saved me unnecessary headaches.
