From the Capitol to the Courtroom

When not in session, Dan served on the House Select Committee on Property Tax Relief and Appraisal Reform, which held hearings throughout Texas to hear from taxpayers and officials on how to reform the property tax system. Following his service as a representative, he moved full time to the courtroom to dedicate his time to helping personal injury victims and their family members pursue the financial compensation they deserve in order to cope with medical expenses and other damages, as well as representing landowners against the government and others determined to take their land.
