Daniel Kaplan helped me resolve all issues regarding a very complicated post divorce custody and relocation agreement, I could perfectly say that he is hands-on and does not underestimate the opposing counsel. He has a vast knowledge of family law and is extremely good in oral arguments in court. He is very just in billing his fees. Danny is the type of lawyer that you need to control an aggressive and abusive opposing counsel. I would definitely recommend him.

Daniel has helped me on multiple occasions with my former spouse. He was able to get me custody and a very favorable financial deal. I would recommend him to anyone that needs an attorney.

If I had known about Danny prior to now. He hands down would have been my first choice. He pulled my case out of a huge slump. Danny is definitely about his business. His staff as well as himself is very professional and fashionably responsive to a clients needs. I recommend him to all. He's a bull dog is his category. A plus material.

Hired Attorney Daniel Kaplan

Danny’s representation caused my family sever emotional harm and extreme financial loss. I often wonder if he didn’t make a deal with my ex-wife’s attorney to shake me down. He seems like he enjoyed the thrill and game of the extreme battle that ensued between myself and my ex. He intentionally encouraged strife to force high fees. What a nightmare I lived under Danny’s “care.” He is a self-centered, self-servicing, corrupt lawyer.
