Additionally, he represents lenders in the negotiation and documentation of workout agreements, loan restructuring, forbearance agreements and loan sale agreements.

Represented client who was victim of trademark and copyright infringement in obtaining a non-dischargeable judgment liquidating the trademark and copyright claims against the debtor. Counsel of record for the defendant in Abel & Buchheim , P.R., Inc. v. Citibank, Nat’l Ass’n , 1:16-CV-24663-KMM, 2017 WL 3731002, (S.D. Fla. Aug. 28, 2017), in which the plaintiff sued the bank under a fact-pattern that the bank permitted the plaintiff’s former officer/director to transfer funds from the corporate account despite the existence of an injunction. The depositor sued the bank under theories of aiding and abetting as well as negligence. The Court dismissed the aiding and abetting counts because the factual assertions in this complaint did not allege that the bank had actual knowledge of the underlying torts or that the bank assisted the former officer/director’s tortious conduct by merely allowing her to withdraw funds from the accounts. The Court dismissed the negligence claim against the bank because plaintiff’s claims were not for the recovery of bodily injury or property damage and “there is no common-law duty of a defendant in negligence to protect a plaintiff from mere economic losses.” Daniel was named a SuperLawyer in 2022 and a “Rising Star” by Super Lawyers in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2020 and was recognized by Florida Legal Elite in 2021 for Commercial Litigation.
