Danel helped me with my recent termination. I had a Dr. note to self quarantine as I am high risk. My employer found it to be fraudulent to have a 2nd job and work from home while I was waiting to get back into the office. Danel sent a letter on my behalf and through the negotiations he valued my input. He left me in the drivers seat but offered his suggestions and handled all of the negotiations. I would 110% hire him again. During this process, whenever something popped into my head (driving myself crazy), I emailed or text him and he would respond easing my stress. Danel - Thank you for that! Thank you for all your work and helping me through a difficult time!
Hired Dan and we both learned that hirring a family member I didn't need to have workers comp MN labor was coming after me for a lot of money until they found out I have a family member working for me I still have him covered but MN dropped the case thanks Dan
I hired Danel to provide advice and guidance with respect to my recent resignation from my past employer and subsequent potential impact to my security clearance. Dan took great care and time to listen to the circumstances of my resignation as well as provide a detailed plan of action to monitor and ensure that my clearance was active and that there were no adverse reports. I reached out to Danel upon careful review of credentials and past performance. After our initial consult, it was readily apparent that Dan is a true expert in his field. As a result, I hired him. Danel Dufresne's performance and execution of the plan was flawless and highly professional and I would strongly recommend Danel Dufresne to anyone with any potential employment or security clearance conflicts. He gets the job Done!!
I consulted with Danel about a very stressful situation with my current employer. I was being wrongfully accused of a serious mis -conduct violation. Which was just a careless mistake. Danel walked me through the process, and helped me formulate a well thought out plan. He helped me draft a well written letter and has made my extremely stressful situation much more manageable. He guides you step by step. I would highly recommend him. He is also very personable and pleasant to speak with.
Mr. Danel was assigned to my case and represented me very well. Extremely responsive.
During my family law case, Danel Dufresne provided me strong counsel during an emotional situation. He was proactive in his approach, always well thought out advice which I greatly appreciated and what was needed. A true professional.
Listened to my problems and came up with solutions. I am so far happy with how things are progressing.
Dan is a consummate professional who knows how to accomplish the mission. The mission here was for me to get my clearance back so that I could start work. He did just that. His perseverance and knowledge of the ins and outs of the security clearance process demonstrated to me why I hired him in the first place. Results count and today, I have my clearance and am on my way shortly to start work. Thanks Tully Rinckey and thanks Dan!
Danel handled my security clearance concerns extremely effectively. Together with his great legal mind and aptitude, Danel aided me in correctly presenting the relevant information for a security clearance application. The clearance application process can be very daunting for some and difficult to navigate efficiently. However, Danel will explain and consult with you in a digestible manner that leaves you feeling a lot more relaxed about any concern you may have. No matter how complex your case may be, he is very prompt and easy to work with whom genuinely cares about your goals working tirelessly to set you on the right path to leave you with great confidence. Furthermore, he has a very approachable character and is easy to get along with. I would highly recommend Mr Dufresne.
When I got arrested and turned to Dan to help decide how to report this to my FSO, he was very respectful, caring, and optimistic. This is very helpful when you make a mistake. There are certain nuances that determine reporting an arrest, how backed up Dod-caf is, what the current climate is, etc. Dan discussed those things at length with me to help me arrive at a decision and followed up after the reporting
