Daniel J. Brazil

Dan received a B. A. in Speech Communication from the University of St. Thomas, and went on to receive a J. D. from Hamline University School of Law. While pursuing his degree at Hamline, he spent time working as a law clerk for the 10th Judicial District in the Public Defender’s Office. He spent most of this time working on criminal defense cases. The last two years of his education was spent working for a midsize civil litigation firm, preparing personal injury cases for trial. After passing his bar exam, Dan spent 6 months in Costa Rica studying Spanish and working for The Costa Rica Trade and Development Board. This experience has led Dan to be drawn more closely to working with the Hispanic community, while also developing other areas related to his personal practice.
