About Daniel
He received his undergraduate degree in political science and philosophy from Texas State and earned his J.D. degree at Lewis & Clark Law School. While at law school, Mr. Messenger served as editor for the Animal Law Review and as a board member for the Public Interest Law Project, a student-run legal advocacy organization providing assistance at legal aid clinics, public defender’s offices, and other public interest organizations.
Daniel has experience in a wide range of legal practice areas including immigration law, corporate law, veterans affairs, labor and employment law, animal law and class-action litigation.
He also worked as chief researcher for a legal academic who published works covering several VA topics, including disability and other issues for those serving in the military.
Born and raised on a cattle farm in Tennessee, Mr. Messenger worked as a third-generation farmer prior to law school.
Daniel worked as a volunteer at Kid’s Club, mentoring and tutoring youth in after-school programs, as a volunteer for Austin Pets Alive! and enjoyed spending time with his dog, Rowdy. Before transferring to Texas State, he played football for the University of Mary-Hardin Baylor where his team won the American Southwest Conference in the 2010. Daniel enjoys reading, running, hiking, and playing music.
In 2017 Mr. Messenger decided to focus his law practice exclusively on Disability Law when he joined the Texas disability law firm of Bemis, Roach & Reed.
His clients have included those seeking long term disability insurance, including ERISA plans, and Social Security disability. He is admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, the Southern District of Texas, the Western District of Texas and the Eastern District of Texas.
