Daniel is an active member of the Houston Trial Lawyers Association, Texas Trial Lawyers Association, and the Louisiana Association for Justice.
Daniel was recognized as a “Texas Rising Star” by Texas Monthly in 2020, 2021, and 2022. Rising Stars recognizes up-and-coming attorneys in Texas under the age of 40 or who have been in practice for less than 10 years and is an honor bestowed upon no more than 2.5 percent of eligible attorneys in the state. Their selection process to identify attorneys selected for inclusion on the annual listing of Texas Super Lawyers includes peer nominations, third-party research, and a “blue ribbon review” process. The result is a credible, impartial, comprehensive listing of the top attorneys in the state of Texas that can be relied upon.
