Dan is a trial lawyer who focuses primarily on catastrophic injury
claims with a significant emphasis on class actions, product
liability, medical malpractice and abuse litigation. He has
represented clients in the British Columbia Supreme Court, Court of
Appeal and Supreme Court of Canada.
Dan appeared in the Supreme Court of Canada in a case that will
dictate how judges across Canada render their decisions. He has
participated in hundreds of mediations, successfully resolving
complex multi-party product liability claims, sexual abuse claims,
and catastrophic injury claims.
Dan achieves outstanding results for his clients by thinking
outside of the box and paving non-traditional paths to resolution. He
is always conscious of his client’s well-being, considerate of the
level of care they need, and takes all the necessary measures to
protect their privacy and interests. If the case is one that needs to
go to Trial to get the best results Dan is up to the challenge. He
will not shy away from a tough fight. He has achieved tremendous
results for his clients at trial. Having said this, if the case can
be resolved to the client’s satisfaction outside the court room Dan
will find the way.
Dan’s free time revolves primarily around his family, Cooper,
Talia, and Ruthie and, in particular, their interest in the arts,
sports and their understanding of why the world is the way it is and
most importantly Dan’s belief that the world is what we make of it.
