AMAZING!

Daniel and Cali were absolutely amazing! I was in need of an urgent stay away order. I called them and within 15 minutes they were writing up the paperwork. I was in court that same afternoon and granted the order to protect myself and my family. Not only were they efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable about their field, but they were kind and caring through a very embarrassing and emotional time in my life. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism and support through this time. I highly recommend Daniel Szalkiewicz & Associates, P.C.

Wonderful Lawyer and team

As Vice President and cofounder of BADASS Daniel has been such a great help and asset to us. When we were just digging in and getting started he was a wealth of information for us and has continued to be a support, not only for us as an organization but for countless victims of image based violence/revenge porn.

Really good defamation attorney

I was going through some SERIOUS defamation and called up a couple law firms that seemed really lazy to listen and do the work but the moment I called Daniel`s firm,I was speaking with him from the get go and he wasted no time in listening to my case and offering advice on the appropriate way to go.We took action and the issue was resolved :).I highly recommend him to anyone going through a defamation issue.Daniel IS the lawyer you need.

Helpful, honest and caring

I needed help in a Libel and Slander case. He was very helpful, caring and most important one, honest with me. He took free consultation time for me and explained things in details.

Caring, perseverant, and very qualified. Great legal professional

Daniel was amazing. He persevered, even though my situation was a challenge, being honest and up front with me the whole way. He was creative in thinking of different ways to tackle this problem I had, and he succeeded in getting the problem removed!!! I couldn't be happier with his work, his attitude, his professionalism, and the success he had with this case. Even though I was beyond stressed out, he was calm and always honest with me in our chances of coming out on the winning end. I would recommend Daniel with the highest confidence that he will do everything possible to solve your problem, definitely give him a call!!

Excellent

Dan took my difficult case head-on and the other side settled. Dan knows the law - he is very bright and an excellent negotiator- everything I wanted when I was looking for an attorney to represent me. Dan was responsive to my calls, managed my expectations, and addressed all my questions/concerns. I felt 100% confident in his abilities. Excellent to work with, would highly reccomend.

The next Johnny Cochran.....

Daniel is one of the best attorneys I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He has no fear and can take a case from inception to trial. He has a better command of the law than anyone I have met, including myself. Although some might think he is too young, he has used his years to learn more than many his senior. If I needed a lawyer, he'd be the first I would call. If I needed a second opinion, he is the first person I call.

Interstate Child Custody/ Support

I needed a lawyer who could handle "fighting" a narcissist in court. I was intimidated by my ex spouse's behavior which was the complete opposite of my mild mannered & sincere self. I thought "good can't win because good has to play by the rules". Now don't get me wrong Mr. Szalkiewicz played hardball when necessary but it was always with the utmost diplomacy. Final outcome all judgments in my favor. Cheers!

Exellent Attorney

After being unsatisfied with two attorneys I hired Mr. Szalkiewicz to handle my divorce. This turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. He was personable and made me feel at ease in such a difficult time. He was very clear when explaining what I should expect from my ex as well as what I may be entitled to. He was always accessible and willing to listen to my concerns. If you are looking for an outstanding and professional lawyer, I would highly recommend Mr. Szalkiewicz to handle your case.

Great Lawyer. Highly Recommended

I've worked with a number of lawyers in my life, both through work and personal cases, and Dan is definitely on the top of the list in terms of reliability and trustworthiness. My cases with him were small, but I never felt that he prioritized the interests of other clients over my own.

- Samuel

★★★★★

I recently used this law firm to help me with some business matters. From the time of my first phone consultation to the final end result, I received the best professional and personal attention any lawyer has ever provided me with.

I highly recommend Daniel and his firm. If I could give him 100 stars, I would. He helped me solve a situation that was derogatory to my business in a less than 24 hours. Daniel made sure to constantly follow up and made me feel like my issue was exceedingly important. That is the type of service that one needs when looking to get rid of defamation of character comments online and online privacy issues. He is truly a one of a kind, specialized lawyer, and I wouldn't hesitate to use his services if ever need again. I would undoubtedly recommend him to anyone and everyone. Thanks Daniel!
