Daniel Leigh of Davis Wright Tremaine LLP is an outstanding attorney with a deep understanding of commercial litigation. I enlisted his services for a complex breach of contract case, and his strategic approach and meticulous preparation were truly impressive. He was able to navigate the nuances of the case with a level of expertise that comes from being recognized by Best Lawyers in this practice area. The outcome was favorable, largely due to his ability to anticipate opposing counsel's moves and position us advantageously. While his legal acumen is unmatched, I wish communication could have been a bit more consistent, particularly during the busier phases of the case. That said, Daniel's ability to simplify complex legal concepts and keep me informed was invaluable. I would highly recommend him to anyone facing commercial litigation challenges, particularly in the California market. His firm's resources and his personal dedication made all the difference.
Dorothy Morales
Daniel Leigh handled our commercial lease dispute professionally, leveraging his recognized expertise in commercial litigation to negotiate favorable terms. His knowledge of California lease laws and Best Lawyers recognition gave us confidence in his approach. However, communication delays—particularly during the back-and-forth with the opposing counsel—made the process feel slower than expected. While the outcome was satisfactory, we often had to follow up for updates, which could be improved. His legal insights were sharp, but responsiveness was inconsistent. A more proactive communication strategy would elevate his already solid practice.
