HIs guidance and knowledge kept me grounded. I would recommend him and his team to anyone seeking legal ...support you want be disappointed.

Dan is a top notch divorce attorney, very experienced and knowledgeable. My divorce entailed several very unusual circumstances, and Dan took it all in stride, remaining calm throughout the process. He was readily available, giving prompt, useful answers to my questions. Dan gave honest feedback whil...e always considering what was in the best interest of my children and myself. In court, he was professional and quick-thinking. I was very glad to have Dan beside me, guiding me through the legal process.

Any custody case can be difficult, but with a narcissist you will be in for one of the most painful, stressful and expensive rides of your life. I knew I needed the best. I chose Dan - after meeting with several attorneys - because he actively listened to my needs and wants and responded intelligentl...y. He also didn’t just tell me what I wanted to hear. His view was informed and balanced. I knew, no matter how willing I was to compromise, I was in for a battle. I needed an attorney who would take the high road but would also be aggressive when need be. Dan is honest, seasoned and smart. I am extremely happy with my decision to work with him and with the job he has done representing me. Dan zeroed in on the immediate significant issues for me and my small child, as well as the future I wanted to build for us. After many years of squabbling with a narcissist and getting lost in crazy-making circles of disagreement with no resolution, I needed a plan in writing that we both agreed to. I got that and I was pleased with it. It took a lot of negotiation (because the other side created barriers) but in the end it was well worth it. Dan also did an excellent job of distinguishing the limits of the law. Many times he encouraged compromise where appropriate and he repeatedly encouraged me to only pursue what a judge would uphold. Throughout my case he was an advocate and helped me avoid court for some time. However, in the end, because of the other side, it was unavoidable. Dan was incredibly well prepared for the trial, and he did a phenomenal job. He argued fairly and intelligently; he is a quick thinker and he didn’t miss a beat. We were successful on every single issue. This outcome makes an enormous impact on my child’s life. I would definitely want to work with him in the future and I have already recommended him to friends and colleagues. Dan has decades of experience. He is also empathetic and has fair billing practices. Top-notch professional and decent human.

I had a very high conflict divorce, dealing with an extremely difficult ex and a signed Marriage Settlement Agreement (MSA) that was not fair or just. Dan was very clear from the beginning that fighting an MSA would be difficult, regardless of the unjust circumstances. Dan was highly knowledgeable, p...rofessional, level headed, and compassionate throughout the entire process. He always let me know all of my options and would give me facts so I could make informed decisions. Dan always gave me all options with the pros and cons, and had me make the decision that was best for me. When we would have phone conversations, he would start them asking how I was doing and about my children. We did end up having to go to a multi-day trail due to the complexities with my case, and it was comforting to know I had a trusted attorney. Dan was highly prepared and carried himself with the utmost of professionalism during the entire process with the end result bring the court dismissing the MSA and making a fair ruling. I now finally have a completed divorce with a result that I could not be happier with, receiving what was fair after a seventeen year marriage. I highly recommend Dan to anyone going through this process, as he is hard working, responds quickly, and truly has his client’s best interest at heart. The entire staff at Stephens-Margolin are compassionate, thorough, and highly professional. Top notch.
