I needed some advice regarding a package that was sent to me. I had been contacted by a detective and didn’t know how to respond. Mr. Smith took time out of his busy day to counsel me and calm my nerves. I offered to pay him for his time, but he didn’t accept it. I truly appreciate him and his team for going out of their way to speak to me.

So glad I contacted Attorney Dan Smith for help!
He helped me verify an email scam for thousands if dollars. Kept me from sending unnecessary funds to a fraudulent site.

My husband & I had our vehicle seized so we did an asset forfeiture search and found attorney Dan Smith. I can honestly tell you that since day one they have been there for us. Attorney Dan Smith answered all of our questions and his team gave us daily up to date information on our matter. They made us feel at ease every step of the way. We were going have to pay lots of money to get our property back, but thanks to Dan Smith we paid almost nothing. I HIGHLY recommend San Diego Defenders to get the job done and in a timely manner. They are there to represent you every step of the way.

Received a notice of seizure letter for replica designer jewelry with a hefty appraised value. I left the consultation feeling much better than how I was feeling before reaching out to them.
