Exceptional Service
Danny and staff provided exceptional service during my case. Truly impressed with the level of detail given to my situation. His years of service was truly instrumental in getting my case dismissed.

A Breathe Of Fresh Clancy.
Looking for the right attorney at your most vulnerable time can be a scary ride, especially when you have just been through the financial consultation of hiring a law firm we thought was the ultimate choice for our family. In this "DWI Case" Danny made the "Substitution of Counsel" go real smoothly. As the transition took place, Danny hit the floor running...........knowing he had some catching-up to do. As a dad worried sick about my son, my most uplifting memories was noticing that Danny was giving us the truth from the start even if it wasn't what we wanted to hear. I near seen "Truth & Transparency" look and sound so clear. Driver's License issues, Vehicle Impoundment was just a few of the challenges in taking the case so late in the game, he showed his abilities to work tight deadlines and manage his time effectively to allow us to "Cry A Little Less" & "Smile A Little More" at the service we was receiving. Kind Regards.......Danny Clancy/You Rock!

Feeling Safe & Secure is Invaluable
Its never fun to need a criminal attorney but the right hire, providing confidence and security through years of courtroom strategy and success is priceless. Danny Clancy knows his way around the legal system and the courtroom. His expertise provided me the opportunity to prevail in may case and return to a normal life. Not only has he represented me, I have referred him to countless others, including my family.

Best lawyer in Dallas
I can't imagine hiring a better defense attorney that Danny. He's so on top of everything and intelligent, it was unbelievable. In the end I didn't need to hire him, but i things had escalated, I would be more than confident hiring Danny. Highly recommend!

One of a Kind Representative
I retained Mr. Clancy's legal services for a loved one. I was impressed with him from the very first phone call. In any sort of legal trouble (especially Criminal) you need someone strong, confident, energetic, and most importantly, some one who loves what they do. Danny is your guy! He is an excellent attorney, and is very knowledgeable and trustworthy. He's very thorough in explaining everything. Danny is very honest in presenting all facts and possible outcomes of the case.

Highly skilled and well known!
The work Councelor Clancy provided was not a criminal case. Nonetheless, I was impressed with the efficiency at which a resolution was reached that easily could have been a long drawn out ordeal. His skills were quickly apparent but I retained him for the name. I'd like to think this, and his highly personable manner, impacted a prompt resolution. Great name, great results. Highly recommend!

Mr. Clancy, "Danny" is our "Go To Lawyer"
Mr. Clancy, "Danny" is our "Go To Lawyer" for any type of criminal issues in Dallas. Period! In my families opinion, there is no close second, when it comes to Texas Criminal Attorneys. We have hired Danny on a couple of occasions to represent our juvenile and adult family members in situations where they had made some bad decisions as well as where law enforcement did not act in accordance with the guidelines and laws that they should have. Danny, his team and his brother Tim Clancy (also a criminal lawyer), acted swiftly and were very thorough every single time providing the best of results. Danny is a straight shooter and even though he is very intellectual and very experienced, he is very humble and gracious and his clients best interest always come first.

Great Defense Attorney
I hired Mr. Clancy for a ticket here in DFW and couldn't have been happier with the service. He was there day and night for me. Helped me understand the process and the steps I need to take to get this off my record. I would highly recommend him for all your defense attorney needs.

Above and Beyond
Having never faced criminal charges in my life, I had to trust others when they suggested I hire Mr. Clancy. They didn't let me down, and neither did Danny. Danny Clancy went above and beyond the call of duty on my behalf, and today there's not a trace of evidence left to suggest I'd ever been in any trouble. Thanks Danny!

Clancy
I called Danny Clancy for an appointment or consultation. He advised me on how to handle a situation my teenage son had gotten into and his council paid off. The advice was all we needed to resolve the problem. Very pleased with the council and results.

My Review of Mr. Daniel P. Clancy
I hired Mr. Clancy based on high recommendations. Mr. Clancy reviewed my situation thoroughly and immediately took complete control of every step of the judicial process. This is important to me because these experiences were all foreign to me. He established close communications with everyone involved and kept me informed and directed at every step. Mr. Clancy worked diligently to help create the best possible outcome for me regarding my situation. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of my case. Mr. Clancy handled every small detail with absolute precision and professionalism. I am pleased with my decision to hire Mr. Daniel Clancy.

Professional and compassionate
You never want to think you're going to be in need of a criminal attorney. Unfortunately, our family found ourselves in this position. We were fortunate enough to find Danny Clancy along with his brother Tim. They were upfront with us regarding the possible outcomes. Danny didn't lose sight that this affected our entire family. He spoke to our son about the need to make significant changes in his life and he made an impact with him. We were pleased with Danny's work on our son's behalf and he kept us in the loop as the case progressed. He was diligent in working on a good outcome for my son and he delivered! I would highly recommend Danny and his team to anyone needing representation.

Dependable
Clancy is an upfront, hard working, diligent, persistent and no nonsense lawyer. I was in a tough situation a few times. Clancy told me what he could do and jumped on my cases and got them worked out. I am a father of three little boys I needed someone whom was going to fight the fight I could not. Clancy did that and did not show any hesitation in getting my sistiation handled. He told me what to expect and communicated throughout the process, never was I in the dark about my situation and never was there a moment I doubted his abilities. If you need a warrior to fight your battle Clancy is your man.

Why you want this pro in your corner
Danny Clancy is an amazing attorney that delivered everything he said he would, in the timeframe he said he would and never waivered from the task at hand. Our results were beyond what we expected. Through his commitment and hard work he allowed us as a family to put closure very quickly to a very scary situation that could have had far reaching consequences for all of us.
