Dan has traveled throughout the country meeting with and deposing victims, family members, and crucial witnesses.  He has secured dozens of multi-million dollar settlements for his clients against national manufacturers and distributors of asbestos-containing products, including individual clients whose recovery was in excess of $5 million.  Over the years, SuperLawyers magazine has recognized Dan with inclusion on its Illinois Rising Stars list.
