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. 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.Katherine

There are lawyers and then there are real lawyers. Dan Horowitz is a real lawyer in every since of the word. Dan is a Certified Specialist in Criminal Law. You will not find very many attorneys having such recognition especially one that hits on all cylinders as Dan. In addition to his knowledge of the law and his experience, which I found to be unmatched, i appreciated the fact that he at all times is genuine, which for me says it all. Thank you Dan.Cory N.
