outside the box2024-05-02At this firm, you can expect to interact with genuine individuals who are truly committed to assisting you. Initially, my expectations were minimal, as my prior experiences with legal consultations had often been dismissive, merely providing fee details without addressing my queries. However, my interaction with this firm was refreshingly different. Upon calling, I was courteously attended by a polite woman who attentively listened to my concerns and subsequently directed me to Attorney Dan Smith. Facing a challenging situation with my brother, I sought guidance on the best course of action. Dan candidly advised that hiring him might not be the most beneficial approach for my case, yet he generously continued the conversation, providing thorough answers to all my questions, accessing necessary records, and offering actionable advice on how to proceed to best assist my brother. His empathy was palpable, perhaps because he too values his relationship with his brother. Remarkably, Dan even detailed the exact route I should take, down to the number of escalators to ride to reach the necessary contacts. This review is lengthy, but I felt compelled to express my gratitude for encountering such integrity and dedication in a profession where one often feels most vulnerable. If you are considering legal representation, I highly encourage you to contact them; a brief conversation will likely assure you that you are in capable hands. My heartfelt thanks to Dan! Update: Everything with my brother worked out.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

JC Garcia2024-03-25I’m grateful that I found Attorney Dan Smith. He helped me recover my vehicle and got my fee waived. I co-signed a car for my brother but unfortunately, he was transporting illegal aliens in San Diego. My brother was arrested, and the truck was seized by border patrol. Dan Smith and his team did a great job recovering my vehicle. I highly recommend them!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Gissell ramos2024-01-11I hired Attorney Smith for my seized vehicle that Border Patrol had taken back in Oct 3rd. Everything with border patrol is completely new to me.They got a claim in a timely matter. Border patrol got back to Attorney Daniel Smith within 3 weeks of receiving the claim. It took around 3-4 weeks for Border Patrol to provide the paperwork (disposition order) during the Christmas/New Year Holiday. I GOT MY CAR BACK BY JAN 10th!! Any questions that me, my grandma or mother had , Itzel was so sweet and always answered with a detailed response. Itzel even helped provide a note of authorization so i was able to pick up the vehicle on my grandmothers behalf, I definitely will recommend them to ANYONE, thank you Attorney Smith, Layla and Itzel!<3Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Jasmine Hernandez2023-12-27I’ve gotten caught twice, first time at the border with people in my vehicle, I was the passenger & I got a slap on the wrist. This second time I was caught again in San Diego with people & was the driver, my car was seized & impounded. I did my research & they proved to be the people to help me out with my issue. Attorney Daniel Smith was able to help me with my paperwork on my seized vehicle & get me answers on my vehicle in the time frame of 2 months or so & I was able to get out of it with no fines. Everyone who I spoke with in the office was knowledgeable as well & answered all my questions, also the for the price, I highly recommend them!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
