This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Not a positive experience

Mr. McCrary agreed to take my case on a Friday through his paralegal. He sent me a retainer and was working with Jeffrey Wax. I asked if he would drop me as a client and his paralegal said- “he is taking your case in the middle of litigation, I doubt he will dump you. It is going to be ok.” I conf...irmed again on Tuesday that Dan was taking my case and his paralegal said yes, he was taking my case. She said that he would be signing the attorney sub form. Six days later (from originally taking the case on Friday) and less than 48 hours before a scheduled deposition he dropped me as a client and voided my retainer agreement. Mr. McCrary spoke to my original attorney, his paralegal spoke to my original attorney and his paralegal spoke to my attorney with the understanding that he was taking the case and then they dropped it. This attorney and Jeffrey Wax will left me high and dry when I need the guidance of my attorneys the most. Clients should not be in a position to represent themselves less than 48 hours before a deposition.

I am sorry you did not have a positive experience. When we take a case on a contingency fee we accept a large risk. We explained to you in writing that we were still evaluating your case. I apologize if the business decision not to proceed with your case was upsetting. It is my understanding that you retained counsel and were fortunately not in a position to represent yourself. I wish you luck in pursuing the matter.

Mr Tab

I had car accident and contacted Dan McCary. Dan was very professional, handled the case in timely manner and I found him above and beyond to take care of his customer. I'm very happy with his services and definitely in future will come back to him and I already recommended my family, friends and oth...ers to take his services. Thank you Dan for all your help and support

Dan exceeded my expectations!

Dan is bright, caring, honest, and diligent, and he always returns my emails, or calls within a few hours if not minutes. He even makes 'house-calls'! Unlike most attorney’s I have known, he is refreshingly transparent and honest. On a scale of 1-10 in the TRUST department, I would give him a 10! I w...ould also give him a 10 in regard to his caring and friendly nature. And the fact that he spent 14 years representing 'the other side' by working for insurance companies made a huge difference for me as this meant that he knew exactly what the insurance companies would be looking for in settling my case. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone...even my own children.
