Great Attorney who advocates for clients

Interestingly enough I met atty Daniel Grey on an off chance. He was at mediation that I was not a party to, and I was in the building for other reasons. As we crossed paths and began speaking he gave me his business card and said something to the effect of “you never know when you may need my servic...es”. As I walked away I thought ‘how did he know’. Long story short within 6months I needed his services. That was about 13 years ago. He not only was a great attorney but he advocated for all sides which is not like many family law attorneys. He helped me see things from my child’s perspective and my spouse at the time. In doing so it made the divorcing with children much more smoother for all parties involved. Over the years I have referred over a dozen of friends & colleagues to him during their time of need and he has always shown great detail and concern to them in the same manner he showed to me. I am only writing this review now because I recently referred someone to him. Though he could not represent the guy due to the county he lived in he still took the time to call him after work hours and be a calming voice and help him him understand the process, ease his mind and refer him to two other lawyers that specialized in that county. I am blown away by this. No charge and he gained nothing other than respect and this review. So many other lawyers won’t even talk to paying clients during the day and a night call is not a thing. So for Daniel to do this was going beyond the pale. I am so thankful for our chance encounter all of those years ago and all the help he has provided to me and to all that have been referred. If you want a lawyer who shoots straight and treats each client even opposing counsel as family & friend to work on a fair settlement he is your guy. This is not about money for him, he truly cares. Thank you Atty Gray. Your father was a great mentor to you. You’re appreciated.

Best and Only Attorney you will need

Daniel is the best family attorney I have ever dealt with. He has been my family attorney for almost a decade. There is no one I trust more to have my back when it comes to my kids. He will shoot it straight with you, it is not about the money for Daniel, its about you and the kids. I would and have ...recommended Daniel to anyone looking for the BEST family attorney. I would give more than 5 stars if it were possible.

When it time to end the madness

Daniel Gray put an end to the madness of my divorce. He’s extremely knowledgeable with civil law, fair and pretty entertaining while he’s doing his job. If you’re looking for a great mediation attorney, look no further!

Amazing Attorney

Going through a custody battle for my daughter was difficult to say the least with my finances however Mr. Gray went the extra mile to fight for my case always considering my finances. He provided information in a way I could understand the legal process. He truly cares about his clients and is acce...ssible and responds quickly to any concern you may have. So grateful for having the opportunity to work with him and his assistant Liz who is wonderful. Truly pleased with the outcome! He won’t disappoint!
