Daniel Goldberg spent his childhood in Tel Aviv, Israel. He graduated from Bellaire Senior High School. He received his undergraduate degree in International Studies and Political Science from the Virginia Military Institute, during which time he spent semesters at the American University in Fez, Morocco, St. Anne’s College and New College in Oxford, England. Daniel then earned his doctorate of jurisprudence from the South Texas College of Law in 2006 and was immediately admitted into the Texas State Bar. Since, he’s also admitted to several districts of the United States District Court of the Southern District and into the Tennessee State Bar. He is also member of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association, Houston Trial Lawyers Association, and several other legal groups.
Daniel has devoted his career to civil litigation, trial law and simple problem solving with a heavy emphasis on probate litigation with a dozen multi-year lawsuits: successfully removing corrupt administrators from estates without a will; defending the validity of Wills; fighting to overturn corruptly created ones; and just fighting over poorly written wills; along with guardianship fights. For the first decade in practice, he was also appointed as an attorney ad litem in dozens of adult guardianship cases. All this fighting over estates and guardianships frames his urgency for everyone to have a properly crafted will & powers of attorney.
Since Daniel has no private time, he has no hobbies or passions to report. Despite his best efforts, Daniel was chosen as a Super Lawyers Rising Star each year from 2016-2020.
