Outstanding Resolution In My Auto Accident/Injury Case

Dan Clare has been an absolute pleasure to work with! Dealing with most insurance companies is all great when you're paying your monthly premium. Things change drastically when you encounter a situation that requires them to provide you a return on your investment! After a recent car accident my lif...e changed drastically. I was forced to take a leave of absence from work because the pain was interfering with my activities of daily living. I tried handling matters on my own with the insurance companies to no avail. That's where Dan Clare comes in to the picture. He rejected their laughable initial settlement offer, and worked diligently to get me the settlement I deserved. Dan kept me in the loop every step of the way. I would recommend Dan to anyone seeking an attorney with not only decades of experience, but also one with integrity, and outstanding professionalism! Thank you Dan for taking on, and resolving my accident/injury case! Sabrina

Clear and Honest Counsel

Dan showed empathy toward the challenges of divorce and mediation, and remained solidly on my side throughout all of the proceedings. He provided strong, intelligent, clear and honest counsel. During that very difficult time I always felt fully represented. Now I can move forward, confident with ...a new life that allows my children to be well supported both emotionally and financially, thanks to a fair settlement due to the excellent work provided by Dan and the rest of the staff at Clare Law Firm.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Clare assisted me with my divorce. While the divorce was not contentious, his kind and compassionate advice made the process even simpler. I would highly recommend Mr. Clare for a family law situation.

Helpful, kind, responsive

A friend highly recommended Daniel when I had a post-divorce parenting issue to resolve. Daniel responded to me right away and consulted with me over the phone. In 15 minutes, Daniel answered with clarity the legal questions that had confused me for months.

Highly Recommend!

Dan educated us and helped us navigate through the legal system which we were very unfamiliar with. He helped my husband receive an insurance settlement from an accident he was in. Dan worked quickly to meet deadlines that helped us settle the case before stature of limitations was up. In doing so..., we received the cash settlement my husband deserved, which we now know we would have been unable to do on our own.
