About Daniel J.
Daniel J. Tocci earned his J.D. from the University of Massachusetts School of Law, completing the program in 2020 after beginning studies in 2017. His time at UMass Law coincided with a period of rapid change in legal education, and he left school prepared to enter practice in the state where he had trained. Classwork, clinics and the routine grind of legal research shaped his early approach to client problems.
Tocci began his professional career at Killeen Law Office, LLC in 2020. He joined the firm as a lawyer and took on a range of responsibilities common to a small practice: handling filings, advising clients and appearing in court when matters required. Those first years helped him learn how to manage files and client expectations while navigating Massachusetts procedures.
Outside the office he has maintained ties to the broader legal community. He has held membership in a professional association since 2021 and continues that involvement. He also lists a Best Law Offices recognition from U.S. News among his credentials, a notation that signals an external measure of standing rather than a personal certification.
Tocci is licensed to practice in Massachusetts and directs his work to matters arising in that jurisdiction. He has been practicing since the year he left law school and has remained based in the state. Colleagues describe him as pragmatic in approach; clients have come to him for straightforward counsel and handling of procedural tasks that keep cases moving.
His career path so far reflects the arc of many recent graduates who moved quickly from law school clinics to daily practice. He learned early to balance court deadlines and client communications. That practical experience informed how he organizes cases and sets client expectations.
As of 2026 Tocci continues to practice law in Massachusetts, building on the work he started at Killeen Law Office, LLC. His current practice focuses on representing clients in matters arising under Massachusetts law.
