Daniel attended the University of British Columbia (UBC) for his undergraduate degree and the University of Victoria (UVic) for his LLB degree.

More important than his legal expertise, he is proud of his direct work with hundreds of injured individuals and their families going from the hospital to the courthouse and maintaining contact after the case is done.  To prove the cases of those he has represented, Daniel has proudly spent thousands of hours listening to survivors, being in their homes, and doing his best to advocate for those who have suffered serious personal injuries.  Being able to advocate and genuinely help people following serious injury has been the most rewarding and motivating parts of Daniel’s career.
