About Daniel R.
Daniel R. Dalton attended Brigham Young University where he completed a Bachelor of Science before earning his Juris Doctor at Charleston School of Law. The combination of a large university undergraduate experience and a regional law degree shaped his approach to legal problems. He learned substantive law in the classroom and practical client work in the clinic. The result is a lawyer comfortable in courtrooms and in conference rooms.
After law school he built a practice that spans state lines. He is admitted to practice in both South Carolina and Georgia and holds current memberships in the State Bar of Georgia and the State Bar of South Carolina. Those dual admissions have guided the kind of matters he takes on and informed how he advises individuals and businesses that operate across the Southeast. He has handled filings, motions and court appearances in both states, developing a working knowledge of their statutory frameworks and procedural rules.
Colleagues describe Dalton as methodical. He approaches cases by breaking issues down into clear steps. That practical approach is evident whether he is preparing pleadings, conducting factual investigation, or counseling a client on compliance questions. He does not rely on broad promises. Instead he lays out options, explains likely outcomes, and sets realistic timelines. That direct style helps clients weigh trade-offs and make informed choices.
Dalton works at Mickelsen Dalton LLC. The firm placement places him in a small-firm environment where attorneys tend to handle a wide range of tasks for clients rather than narrow specializations. At Mickelsen Dalton LLC he collaborates with other lawyers and support staff to manage filings, negotiate settlements, and prepare for hearings. He is an active member of the local bar associations and participates in professional events that address changes in state law and procedure.
In practice he applies the training he received at BYU and Charleston School of Law to the daily demands of civil matters in South Carolina and Georgia. He balances courtroom work and client counseling, often guiding people through procedural hurdles or statutory questions that cross state lines. His practice at Mickelsen Dalton LLC centers on legal matters arising under the laws of South Carolina and Georgia.
