"Fortunately for us, Dan represented our company in an incredibly high-stakes, complex, and contentious litigation against a fortune 100 company. It was clear that Dan, in a very short timeframe, understood the issues and facts better than anyone involved, and his skills of persuasion were second-to-none.  Dan is an amazing litigator, and I would recommend him to any employer in a bet-the-company litigation or any individual who has an important case."  

Mike Grillo, General Counsel, Cidra Corporation

Client Testimonials

B. “The attorneys at Heyrich Kalish McGuigan were incredible. I spoke to several attorneys about an employment issue that I had, but ultimately chose HKM because the attorneys there took the time to fully understand my concerns, explain to me the costs involved in litigation, and describe the litigation process. Fortunately for me, I made the right choice! The HKM attorneys are not only very supportive and extremely knowledgeable about all facets of employment law, but are amazing litigators, and they worked tirelessly on my behalf.”
