Client Oriented Lawyers

Best Only Works if the Lawyer is “Best” for You

The “Best Lawyer” is not an objective criteria.  The proper phrase is “best lawyer for you as a person and for the very specific circumstances of your case”.   

Daniel Horowitz strives to team you with lawyers (and paralegals) who are compatible personally and with legal expertise that matches your needs.  This is why we promise that if we cannot meet your legal needs we will assist you in finding an excellent lawyer who is the proper match.

    “Dan Horowitz was the best attorney I could have asked for during a difficult time in my career.”
    Dan Horowitz was the best attorney I could have asked for during a difficult time in my career. From the moment I met him, I felt believed, respected, and safe. He and his team were endlessly responsive and empathetic to me and my family. He fought for my case day and night, always keeping my best interests at the forefront of his mind. As I learned from Dan, it is never a good time in one’s life to need legal representation - but if you need it, Dan is your person, your advocate, and your best friend. We are forever grateful for his tireless commitment to justice for the people.

    “Tough, humble, has integrity - simply THE best.”
    Tough, humble, has integrity - simply THE best. With Dan it is not so much about the money but about doing what is right. A very rare breed. He has honesty and integrity and the jurys see it. If he doesn't believe in the case or the client he won't waste your time or his. But you better listen to him!...Believe an trust in him. I did and I am totally indebted to him. He is "The best of the best." Thank you Dan for all you have done and continue to do. Carole~ Arbuckle v. Board of Chiropractic Examiners
