For the past 20 years, Danny has put his heart and soul into building one of Denver’s premier personal injury practices. “If you expect the best results for your client you must roll up your sleeves and get to work. If you cannot achieve a successfully negotiated resolution with insurance companies then you have to go to trial and you’ll want someone with plenty of trial experience.” Danny received one of the top medical malpractice trial verdicts of 2016 and one of the top 10 personal injury trial verdicts in 2017.
