I've worked with many other firms over the years, but this is one of the few that I feel a real connection to and in which I have great trust and confidence.

I find them to be great negotiators. I appreciate that when they see something, even if
we aren’t engaged in the issues, if they see something applicable in the market to our
company they reach out and keep us in the loop. It’s a very good partnership.

Chambers USA

Honestly, he is the greatest attorney I have ever known. What makes him so marvelous is his ability to take multiple points of view In addition to being an attorney, he has run
businesses and venture capital firms. When he gives advice, it is based on his experience in all of these domains He always has the law in mind, but he is also always thinking about what is best for the business In this way, he gives advice that we can actually use. Daniel is a practical realist with deep experience, and that’s what makes him so valuable.
