Daniel specializes in litigating personal injury matters with a focus on creative and zealous results for his clients. He has represented both insurers and injured clients since 1984, though exclusively plaintiff-side since 1990. He has practiced in many areas of the law, but has limited his practice since 2000 to personal injury, insurance and workers compensation.
Throughout his career, Daniel has served in legal, judicial and civic positions of leadership. He has been recognized by his peers as a “Super Lawyer”, and serves on the amicus committee of the Utah Association for Justice. Daniel has won numerous landmark appellate cases, including Bylsma v. R.C.Willey which establishes the right of Utahns to sue retailers for defective and dangerous products.
"I'll use my experience and knowledge of the industry to fight fiercely on your behalf."
