Dan did two things that really impressed me. First, he understood and grasped the legal issue quickly and with ease. Second, he always either personally picked up his phone when I called or called me back within the hour. I am so impressed!

Mr. Chammas advised our company on addressing a situation with an employee out on disability leave. He gathered all the facts, reviewed all of the documents, advised us every step of the way, helped us through a sticky termination, and stayed well under the initial budget he provided us with. I now go back to Mr. Chammas for all of our employment needs.
