About Daniel A.
Some lawyers prefer layers of bureaucracy. Daniel A. Singer chose a simpler route. He built a solo practice and has practiced under his own firm name since 2008. The move set the tone for a career spent regularly appearing in both state and federal courtrooms.
Singer’s legal training began at McGill University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in 1997. He then went on to Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, receiving his J.D. in 2003. While at Cardozo he was a member of the Moot Court Honors Society, an experience that left him comfortable in oral argument and appellate settings.
After law school Singer established a private practice that would later operate as The Law Offices of Daniel A. Singer PLLC. The firm name has been in use since 2008, and it serves as the primary base for his legal work. Over the years he has maintained courtroom activity at multiple levels of the system, relying on the freedom of a small practice to choose the matters he will take on.
He is admitted to practice in the State of New York and before several federal tribunals. His admitted jurisdictions include the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and the United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York. Those admissions allow him to represent clients at both trial and appellate stages where appropriate.
Membership in the New York City Bar remains part of his professional life. He lists that association as current. Membership in local bar organizations has offered him a steady source of professional contacts and a way to keep pace with shifts in court procedures and practice norms.
Singer’s day-to-day work involves courtroom preparation, filings in both state and federal dockets, and appearances before judges and clerks across New York. He approaches matters practically. He prepares for hearings and drafts briefs with attention to procedural detail. Colleagues describe him as measured in court and focused on the mechanics of moving a case forward.
He maintains his office under The Law Offices of Daniel A. Singer PLLC and continues to accept matters that require representation in New York’s state courts and in federal court. He currently handles matters in New York state and federal courts and appears in the Southern and Eastern Districts and the Second Circuit when cases require it.
