Daniel Anthony Hunt's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have worked with Daniel for several years and he is a great litigator with expert knowledge of the CA probate code. He is very devoted to his clients and always has their best interests in mind. I would recommend him to anyone who needs assistance with a litigated probate matter."
"I have worked with Daniel for nearly 5 years now. He has an expert knowledge of the probate code. Since most litigators do so generally or in civil court, this expert knowledge sets him above many of his peers. Daniel has a knack for finding ways to get a client what they are after without giving away what they already have. Daniel is conscient of his client's needs and pursues those needs in the most cost effective way possible."
"I have known Dan for many years and have personally seen his work. I have found it to be quality work. He also knows the area of law of which he practices. If I ever have a question about Estate Planning, Probate or Wills he or a staff is quick to get back to me. There are a number of good lawyers that I know that handle Estate Planning and Dan is one of them."
"Dan is well-versed in estate planning and probate law."
"While I've never personally worked with (or against) Mr. Hunt, he has a strong reputation in the Sacramento legal community as an aggressive and competent litigator. I've referred complex matters to his office before, and I'm happy to endorse Mr. Hunt for any matters related to the Probate code."
"Dan is honest, knowledgeable, and takes the time to listen and understand your needs. He is also an effective advocate in court when things don't go as planned. I recommend Dan to all my close friends and associates who need estate planning guidance."
