COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE

Daniel is working on my family’s trust and is completely unresponsive. He never returns phone calls and apparently is never available. If you would like an attorney that you can not ever reach, them this is your guy. There are so many other attorneys and law firms out there to choose from. I high...ly recommend finding one that will take the time to return a simple phone call.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse Daniel Clark Hales, Esq. Dan is my “of Counsel” for estate planning and trust and estate litigation. Dan and I worked together on a trust litigation and I found the expert advice and oversight of him and his staff first rate. I have found his knowledge of estates and trusts to be second to none. Dan has been instrumental in mentoring me with my personal transition from Tax Accountant to Tax Attorney and I have come to count him among my friends. I have no hesitation in recommending Dan to friends, family and clients."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
