Daniel MacQueen Hanifin

My son was going through a difficult time in his life. Because of that, he received 3-4 traffic tickets for speeding among other issues. If convicted it would affect his continuing schooling and possible hiring in the automotive industry as a mechanic. Dan got him through each one successfully eve...n though a couple in his words were seemingly hopeless.

I received my first DUI back in October 2018 and hired Dan to work my case. In addition to being very knowledgeable about the DUI court process and knowing how to work the PA law system, Dan went above and beyond for me when working my case; when my BAC results came back at my preliminary hearing and... was found to be a borderline result of the lowest tier, Dan went out of his way to try to get my charges dropped by talking personally to the DA. Dan is the type of lawyer who you can find a friend in and trust completely to give you the best advice during the court process. He won't treat his clients as just numbers and takes the initiative to understand them which I feel most lawyers don't care to do, but should do. I highly recommend him to anyone who looking for a great attorney, and would definitely consider hiring him again if I ever get into another situation with the law. Thanks so much for your help Dan, you've been so great! And keep up the great work!

I was shocked at how little he did for my case. I truly feel that if he could have styed in his chair and "phoned it in" he would have. He relies way too much on plea bargains and turns away from putting any effort into a case. He deals in quantity of cases not in quality of defending your case. O...ther attorneys have said that I was not represented very well. He claims to have an "exclusive criminal practice" yet even on Avvo he lists divorce and general litigation.

By a stroke of luck, I came across Dan's name & number in an online yellow pages search. I hired him to represent me in custody case involving my granddaughter. From my first consultation through receiving final court papers, Dan was always available to answer any/all questions I had. In addition ...to his extensive knowledge, he is very warm and compassionate. I felt he had a genuine interest in me and my case and I wasn't just another client. I would not hesitate to call Dan in the future should the need arise and I highly recommend him to anyone needing representation in Chester or Delaware County.
