Daniel A. West

I laughed aloud at the bad review below. Sounds more like someone disgruntled on the other side​ than a client of Dan's. I had a stellar experience with my case thanks to Dan and staff.​ He's my second attorney, my first had been great, but slowly became less organized and it cost me dearly. ​So​... I asked several professionals in the court system ​ who they would use if it were them and their child going to court, and the most common answer I got was Dan West. Now, unlike many attorneys, he isn't a slick s​chmoozer​ type....​but I've been to court enough to know judges see through that. They focus on facts, honesty and respect for the law. With my child​ on the line, I chose Dan. Dan exceeded my expectations​ when it mattered the most.​ ​He made sure I was prepared for court, he knew my case details inside and out, was unflinching in the face of an insulting opposing counsel and knew the law to reach my and my child's best outcome. ​I am thrilled with Dan's skill as an attorney and trust his advice and abilities in court implicitly. ​

We hired Mr. West for custody issues after the divorce. He did a great job although the Judge did not apply the law properly Mr. West then assisted us with an appeal which we ultimately won!!! Mr West was easy to work with, Very honest and straight forward. He gave us realistic advise on what to expe...ct. I would recommend Mr. West to everyone and I do!!!

Dan West is an exceptionally professional Lawyer who actually cares about his clients. He has helped me in 2 cases not even related to divorce, which is his specialty. I then referred Dan to a close friend going through a rough & difficult seperation. He took charge, carried my friend to the end, an...d smoothed the sad transition she was facing. I know she is grateful and so am I. He is always available and promptly handles all matters proficiently. I highly recommend Dan West, my attorney and friend.

I hired Dan West to do my divorce that had several custody issues. It was an incredibly stressful time in our life. Dan has a wealth of experience that kept us one step ahead and I always felt like he was available. It's confusing to me to read other reviews that claim he or his office was unrespo...nsive, that was never the case. I would take those reviews with a grain of salt and are most likely the result of an outcome that could not be avoided. With almost 20 years of experience, Dan was able to navigate me through a difficult time with his expertise. He not only had a plan from the start, he also knew all of the players. This is when experience counts!!

Dan West is AWESOME! I highly respect him for the fact that he's 100% honest and up front, never giving us any false hope. He keeps our feet on the ground and doesn't present us with expectations of something he's not absolutely sure of. He is an aggressive, honest, hard core, tell it like it is kind... of guy and in my opinion, there's no better quality in an attorney. Sure, just like most attorneys, his rates are a little high, but the quality of work and results are 150% worth the price. Other attorneys charge the same rates, but pad their hours, don't maintain constant contact with their clients, and don't produce the same results as Dan. Going into our contempt case, Dan was very honest with us that it wasn't black and white, and based on the evidence, it wasn't a sure win, yet Dan took over that courtroom and his confidence, and blatant, tell-it-like-it-is demeanor, turned our case into not only a win, but an absolute GLORIOUS VICTORY! We got more than we were asking for, and we owe it all to Dan! And let's not forget about his fantastic staff! Just like support staff is crucial in any office environment, the same goes for an attorney needing a GOOD paralegal. Melanie is just that to Dan. She is friendly, honest, responsive, organized, and always follows through with what she says she's going to do. So I have to HIGHLY recommend Dan West and his staff to anyone who is in need of an AMAZING Family Law attorney. He's well worth the money!
