You simply won't find a more strategic or comprehensive attorney in the City of Chicago than Danielle, particularly when it comes to real estate, land use and zoning. Her understanding of practical business needs and ability to find winning solutions have allowed our management team to focus on what we do best--running our business--having the utmost confidence that whatever matter Danielle is working on for us will have a positive outcome. She is ethical, smart, intuitive, a true strategist and someone who makes navigating tough situations more comfortable for the client. She has been our counsel on numerous issues with the City of Chicago, as well as with residential neighbors. She has been flawless in her advice, execution, strategy and representation of our company.

Danielle is extremely knowledgeable and is a pleasure to work with. I have used her services several times and she has always done an excellent job.

Danielle's is a great advocate and her thoughtful, results oriented approach to our matter was a great contributor to its ultimate success. Her advice was top notch and her ability to help all interested parties reach a mutually beneficial solution was invaluable. I look forward to our next project together.

Danielle has helped us (apartment developers) secure planned development approvals, zoning variances and zoning changes in the context of contentious communities, outdated zoning codes and difficult economics. On easy jobs she is quick and efficient; on complicated matters she is thorough and simplifies the process with thoughtful diligence and hard work. Danielle helps us (developers) to understand the local context and messages. Similarly, she helps the community, elected officials and local government staff to understand and appreciate our perspective as developers. She does this with an easy-going grace and respect for each party that often helps find common ground and/or compromises that bring disputes to resolution.
