A Professional Attorney Who Knows Dentistry Inside And Out

My wife's facial nerve was injured during dental implant. She found Dane through Google search. Dane was listed as the highest in the dental malpractice area. I did not get involved with Dane first. Later on, as I met Dane each time, I started to like him more and more. He is honest and professi...onal. He has a dentistry degree and that explains why he knows so much detail of my wife’s pain and suffering. Sometime we feel like we were seeing our doctor for counseling on how to cope with the situations. I think he would be the best attorney to handle dental malpractice cases in the southern California area.

Great Honest Attorney!

My lingual nerve was severed during a wisdom tooth extraction. The dentist who severed it did not seem to take it seriously and did not refer me to an oral surgeon. I needed help and decided to search for an attorney who could refer me to a good oral surgeon. I found Dane's website and gave him a cal...l. I spoke with the receptionist, who was very nice, and Dane called me back within ten minutes. He got me in touch with a great oral surgeon that did an amazing surgery to reconnect my severed nerve. Although my tongue will never be 100% back to normal, it is MUCH better than it was before the surgery. And it keeps getting better! Dane filed a lawsuit on my behalf and was realistic about the possible outcome. He did not overpromise or exaggerate. He was very honest and expected me to be very honest also. In fact, I don't think Dane would take a client who was being dishonest. I believe this gives him respect in the industry and allows him to settle cases quickly. My case settled less than five months after the lawsuit was filed. Dane gave me his cell phone number and kept me posted on everything that was going on with the case. He was very professional and very knowledgeable about the law and the dentist profession..

Finding an honest attorney

Finding an honest attorney can be a challenging task. Especially after putting your trust into a doctor whom has caused you harm. After much research online I found the best type of attorney to represent a dental malpractice case should not only have a law degree but also a dental degree as ...well. They have much more knowledge as to the harm that's been caused and have a better know-how to accurately argue your case. Dane was actually the only dental malpractice attorney I found with a dual law & dentistry degree. This was the main reason why I chose Dane Levy. But, not only was his educational background impressive, his actual experience gave me complete faith in him. He's been involved in huge cases which you can read about on his website. My whole experience with Dane was very positive. He's an honest attorney and he was completely upfront with me from the very beginning. Any questions or concerns I had he always took the time to explain. He also has a special quality that I find many attorneys lack and that's integrity. My case was a very unusual one in which he had never seen or experienced. He was always realistic as to the possible outcomes and never gave me false promises. My experience with Dane was positive throughout the whole process. And with that being said, I would highly recommend Dane to anyone who's been injured by a dentist or orthodontist and is seeking legal help. Trust is a hard thing to find these days and I honestly found I could trust him. Especially after all I've been put through, and that's saying something.

Top Notch Dental Malpractice Attorney.

It became clear to me based on his professionalism and the result that he obtained for me that Mr. Levy is the best in this area of the law. I suffered a nerve injury as a result of a dental implant that was placed in my lower jaw. Mr. Levy's knowledge of dentistry was second to none. I recommend Mr.... Levy without hesitation or reservation.
