Excellent Attorney

Dan has represented me for nearly 10 years in my divorce and custody case. He is excellent and will go to whatever lengths needed to protect your children. He is straight forward and matter of fact. He will represent you and your children, keeping their best interest in mind. He takes the time to exp...lain your options and the pros and cons to all options. I would highly recommend Dan and will use him again if ever necessary,

Knowledgeable, Communicative and Compassionate!

I contacted Dan to help with our custody case. During our first meeting he gave us the confidence that he was going to do everything in his power to make sure we would see our little girl more. He exceeded any expectations we had for him. Every question, e-mail or phone call; Dan made time for us. ... Even on short notice he made sure to address each of our concerns. He treated us like family and fought our case with compassion. Before going to Dan our custody case was overwhelming and draining. Thanks to Dan we were able to move through the case smoothly and eventually settled out of court with the offer we had hoped for. I highly reccommend Dan for his knowledge, care, discipline and heart he gives to each case. We will always choose Dan for our legal needs and feel fortunate to have had such a positive experience with such an incredible lawyer!

Best custody lawyer you could ask for

We have been working with Dan on our custody case for over a year now and he has been everything we could have asked for. His wealth of knowledge and expertise was the only reason we were able to get the ruling we were hoping for. Dan is a bull dog, he is passionate about what he does and he gave u...s the confidence to stand up beside him and fight for what was right. He is a no-nonsense lawyer and would not stop until we received the ruling that we desired. His interpersonal skills are what you need from someone in his profession, with Dan you will not only get the guidance your looking for, but you will build a friendship for the years to come. I would HIGHLY recommend Dan to anyone who is looking for his kind of services.

Highly knowledgable, no-nonsense, tells you how it is without making promises he can't keep

I used Dan for a modification and during the first consultation, he wanted to make sure I knew what was unrealistic to ask for because it wouldn't be awarded. I appreciated that up front honesty which just continued throughout the process. He made sure I knew all the risks, some of which we could mit...igate and some of which where not in our control. The only promise he made is that he would do his absolute best to represent me. I believe he full-filled that promise. I feel he considered my children's well being very important during the whole process. As for the technical details, he is well versed in family law and well practiced. During the proceeding, he gave options that included time, emotional (especially for the kids,) and fiscal costs which was nice. His only agenda was in fair representation. I have called him on a couple of occasions after the initial modification and he convinced me that the cost vs potential rewards didn't add up.

Outstanding Family Law Attorney

We've used Dan's services for approximately 5 custody related battles with ex spouses, I wouldn't go as far as to say that I'm happy to have used Dan but if you find yourself in a situation where you need a family law attorney you can't do any better than Dan. Dan is compassionate, professional,... aggressive, talented, honestly tries to save his clients money and represents his client well even if it's telling the client something they don't want to hear like "You don't have a case" or "You should settle because you aren't likely to get a better resolution at trial." Based on our numerous experiences with him and other Boise attorneys I have no doubt he is the best family law attorney in Boise, hire him before the opposing side does :).
