Experience

As one of Wendel Rosen’s senior litigators, Dan handles a wide array of complex business litigation, including unfair competition, product liability, director and officer liability, and real estate disputes. He represents small and large companies, high net worth individuals, manufacturing concerns, distributors, real estate companies and public entities. He is equally comfortable in the courtroom representing his clients’ interests or in the boardroom providing advice designed to avoid litigation.
