About Daniel
I am a partner and trial lawyer at the firm of Tomasik Kotin Kasserman. Prior to founding this firm, I was partner with the prominent firm Corboy & Demtrio. My experience handling personal injury and wrongful death cases in the areas of transportation, product liability, medical malpractice, and construction has led to great success for my clients in the courtroom. My results have given me top positions on several mass tort litigation steering committees, and my reputation has earned me elected leadership positions in various prestigious legal and civic organizations.
