Employment Law - Professional Attorney with the Nordstroms Treatment

Finding the best attorney is not an easy thing to do! Whom do you trust in hopes that your case would be presented in the best possible manner? I have used many attorneys in the past and by far Daniel Holzman exceeds all expectations. Follow up is crucial to any case and so is a good attorney and fir...m with a complete staff to assist. Daniels firm does exceed my expectations and I hopefully will not need him in the future. If the situation does arise in the future, I will definitley use Daniel again. Some of the issues handled by Daniel include wrongful term and all aspects of employment law including loss wages.

Dan and the Dedicated Professionals at Caskey & Holzman are Top Notch in Every Way!

Like so many people, I never dreamed I would find myself in a situation where I would need to seek legal counsel. Dan was recommended to me by an attorney friend in Dallas whose colleague had nothing but praise when he gave her the referral. From the beginning, Dan showed compassion for my situation... and demonstrated the utmost professionalism. He answered all of my questions and explained everything in detail so I was capable of understanding and making the right decisions. Dan operates with the highest of ethics and integrity and has an exceptional work ethic. He has outstanding follow through which is a rare find in this day and age. Dan’s passion, legal expertise, and genuine caring are what separates him and makes him stand out among his peers. I’m so grateful to have had Dan and his team of experts on my side, as I would not have made it through this ordeal without their guidance and expert legal skills. I feel confident in saying that the dedicated professionals at Caskey & Holzman are top notch in every way and highly recommend Dan and his legal team.

An excellent Attorney

I am writing this review for one reason and one reason only. Dan Holzman deserves to have new potential clients know that he is an excellent attorney and that he is an man of his word. He will analyze your case from the beginning and layout your potential outcomes in the upmost realistic fashion. He ...will outline possible costs involved which are extremely realistic and helpful to you as the client. He will and does constantly keep you informed on the status of your case and is always available to personally talk to you when you have a question. As you may know or will experience there are many times that information in your case may come to you and you want a quick answer....Dan will be there for you. You will not lose sleep waiting to hear back from him. But most of all Dan is very knowledgeable in his area of law and it shows. He will not only give solid recommendations on how to proceed or not to proceed, but will listen to you and how you may want to proceed. A rare quality I have found in attorneys and Dan possess it. I am grateful that we found Dan and his law firm. They have a great team that all helped us out in our case and the outcome was excellent. Thank you Dan.

So Lucky

I was referred by a friend and it was the best decision I made... I had previously contacted many lawyers to see who best suited me and my case. Immediately when I made the call to Daniels office they made me feel extremely at ease and explained clearly what my options were. We are in the middle ...of the case and they have always answered my calls and emails and even calmed me down when I was anxious. I can't express enough how lucky it was for me to get Daniel and Tom. Keep fingers crossed I'll let you know what happens either way I would and will use them again.

Stellar Service

Filing a David vs Goliath lawsuit was a scary and overwhelming process. From my initial consultation to mediation, the legal team at Caskey and Holzman has been extremely kind, efficient and knowledgeable. They provided a steady stream of expert guidance and support during this emotionally draining ...time.  Dan's no-nonsense demeanor with opposing counsel clearly displayed that there was no room for petty tactics or actions. I recommend this firm with great confidence that they will do the same for all their clients.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I emphatically endorse Dan Holzman. I first met Dan as an opposing counsel on a wrongful termination case. Dan was at all times professional and honest, but at the same time a staunch advocate for his client. I came to respect Dan for his ethical and reasoned approach to the case we opposed each other on. I have had occasion over the last 10 years since meeting Dan to refer potential clients to him several times. In every instance Dan was straight forward with the clients and with me about the case's merit. I have also sought out Dan's advice for my own client's cases and he has always taken the time to listen and offer his take or advice on the case. I wouldn't hesitate to call Dan as the first lawyer on my list."
