Daniel is an excellent attorney. I met Daniel when he was a prosecuting attorney for King County. We tried a DUI case against each other and he obtained a guilty verdict. Through the trial, and before and after, Daniel always showed class and integrity, even empathy for my client. I was impressed by his knowledge of the law and his courtroom presence, and I know now that he is representing clients on the other side of the aisle he is a dedicated advocate for them. I heartily endorse this attorney.
