I worked evening and my wife worked days in Lancaster, We were only married a few weeks when she went to the Grant Regional Hospital ER complaining of chest pains, dizziness, and breathing problems with hardly any physical activity. No tests were conducted to rule out a heart problem. Robin was diagnosed with a migraine, prescribed painkillers, and told to walk home. She got home around 7pm and suffered a ruptured myocardial infarct. I found her dead on the bathroom floor when I got home from work around midnight. family sent me to attorney Key. He got all Robin's medical records and the autopsy and put it all in a summary. The insurance company for the hospital claimed they did everything right and weren't responsible. I know Mr. Key ran the case by several doctors who added reports to his summary. It took a little bit over one year, but the insurance finally agreed to pay me the maximum amount of money the state allows. It was pretty clear Mr. Key had worked these kinds of cases before. He told me what to expect all along and in the end I got just what he said I would.

I heard Mr. Key was very good at defending DUI cases for people who had multiple arrests. Instead of prison, he was able to get me into a DUI treatment court program. It saved my job and placement with my kids.

At first I didn't know what was going on. In fact even after Daniel got my DUI arrest dismissed I'm still not sure what happened. He acts more like a police officer than a lawyer and put my case together just like he was the investigator. What I do know is that I am free!

He gives free consultations and really takes the time to explain what to expect in your divorce. I went to 2 other lawyers before seeing Mr. Key, and hired him on the spot. Glad I did!

Was charged $15,000 to handle my case but was never available when I tried to contact him. He was in Germany for several weeks. I had a DUI cases in 1989,93,2007,2009,&2018. He sent me an additional bill for $2880. I spent 6 months incarcerated 3 yrs probation and 16months treatment court. I feel I was over charged for what I received. I haven't sent him the $2880 yet.
