Daniel Dinneen has the law in his blood. A descendent of the famous Supreme
Court Justice, Charles Evans Hughes, Daniel has known from a young age that
he was destined to become an attorney.
In that spirit, Daniel attended The University of Texas School of Law in 2004.
While there, he competed nationally and internationally in both moot court and
mock trial, winning several awards along the way. He was also the recipient of
two different merit-based Presidential scholarships, an associate editor on The
Review of Litigation, and a member of the Board of Advocates. In 2007, he
graduated, with honors, and moved to Houston to begin his practice.
Initially, Daniel went to work for one of Houston's largest defense firms where
he gained invaluable insight into the mentality of defense lawyers, insurance
companies, and the large corporations that have been sued for alleged bad acts.
While there, Daniel successfully defended cases of many different types,
including: breach of contract; negligence; wrongful death; fraud; bad
faith; premises liability; civil RICO; trade secret misappropriation; Deceptive
Trade Practices Act; Jones Act; and more. But after three years of defending
against such claims, Daniel decided that it was time to represent the people who
were harmed by such acts.
Consequently, Daniel left the world of defense to pursue a career as a
plaintiff's attorney with Jim Adler & Associates. Serving as one of only two trial
lawyers in Adler's Houston office, Daniel successfully obtained multiple
judgments and settlements in favor of individuals who had been harmed by other
people's negligence. Never afraid to take a case all the way through trial, Daniel
has great confidence in the ability of a well-informed jury to make a just decision.
Drawing on his past experiences from both sides of the isle, Daniel founded
The Dinneen Law Firm in order to help those who cannot help themselves.
Whatever the nature of a client's legal problem, Daniel is able to provide dynamic
solutions with an attentive approach to his client's needs.
