Origin: One Attorney, One Practice Area, Three Decades
Daniel Siegel earned a B.S. in Finance from Indiana University before attending Valparaiso University School of Law, graduating and being admitted to the Arizona Bar in 1994. He established his own practice, Daniel J. Siegel, P.C., that same year, and has practiced family law exclusively from that single Phoenix office ever since.
Practice Areas
Siegel’s practice covers contested and uncontested divorce, high-net-worth divorce, legal separation, dissolution petitions, default divorce, paternity actions, child custody and legal decision-making, child support, and post-decree modifications. As a solo practitioner, Siegel handles matters personally rather than assigning them to associates.
Track Record
Arizona family court outcomes are generally confidential, so there’s no public settlement or verdict table to cite here. Siegel’s professional record instead runs through three decades of continuous, exclusively-family-law practice and a genuine examination-based state certification.
Note: Past results, where applicable, do not guarantee a similar outcome in any future matter.
Client Voice
Siegel holds 10 reviews on Avvo. One client described him handling her divorce with professionalism and care, calling him honest and straightforward with no surprises throughout the process, and noted she called him again five years later for unrelated legal advice, which he provided promptly. Another reviewer, describing a different matter, called him an amazing lawyer who came through for their case.
Community
Siegel authors the Thomson Reuters-published Arizona Family Law Rules Handbook, updated annually — a practitioner reference used across the state’s family law bar, not just his own practice.
Recognition
Siegel’s Board-Certified Family Law Specialist designation from the State Bar of Arizona is a genuine, examination-based credential. He has been selected to Super Lawyers in 2010 and every year from 2022 through 2026 — a peer-influenced, research-driven selection process. Awesome Attorneys notes the “American Institute of Family Law Attorneys” 2015 recognition referenced in some of Siegel’s older marketing separately from the credentials above, since it’s the kind of legal-marketing-program award that’s more common and less independently vetted than Board Certification or Super Lawyers.
The Arizona Legal Backdrop
What follows is general legal information, not legal advice.
Arizona divorce and legal separation proceed under A.R.S. § 25-312. Custody and parenting time decisions turn on the best-interests factors in A.R.S. § 25-403. Child support follows the state’s guidelines under A.R.S. § 25-320, and spousal maintenance is governed by A.R.S. § 25-319. Arizona is a community property state, with a presumption of equal division under A.R.S. § 25-211.
The Awesome Attorneys Assessment
Siegel’s genuine strength is depth through narrowness: three decades practicing nothing but family law from the same office, with a genuine specialist certification and a role as an annually-published reference-book author for the state’s own family law bar — a level of subject-matter continuity a newer or more diversified practice can’t match.
The honest caveat: as a solo practitioner, capacity is inherently limited — clients with a matter requiring significant bench depth or a large support team for document-intensive litigation may need a larger firm instead.
