I hired Daniel Dutko at Rusty Hardin & Associates to handle a personal injury case after a significant car accident in the Houston area. His professional reputation and recognition by Best Lawyers in Personal Injury Litigation were major factors in my decision. When it came to the legal strategy and navigating the complexities of the claim, Daniel demonstrated clear expertise. He understood the nuances of Texas law and his background with a firm of this caliber was evident in the preparation of my case. However, my experience was mixed. While the ultimate outcome was satisfactory, the process itself felt disjointed at times. Communication was not as proactive as I had hoped; there were periods of several weeks where I received no updates unless I initiated contact. Response times to emails were often slower than expected. Additionally, while his legal advice was sound, I sometimes felt my questions about procedural steps were answered in a somewhat rushed manner. For someone seeking a highly skilled attorney who will secure a solid result, Daniel is a capable choice. Just be prepared to manage your own expectations regarding client communication and the day-to-day engagement throughout what can be a lengthy process.
