1. Why We’re Writing This

At MesotheliomaLawyerCenter.org, we’ve seen just about every kind of law firm marketing under the sun — from the genuinely good to the “too good to be true.” Our job isn’t to praise or attack; it’s to help families understand who’s actually behind the website they’re trusting with life-changing decisions.

So, when Danziger & De Llano, LLP relaunched their site (dandell.com) earlier this year, we took a closer look. Not as competitors, but as professionals who care deeply about truth in this space.

Let’s be honest: most people visiting a mesothelioma law firm’s site are scared, grieving, or exhausted. The least we can do is make sure the information they find is real.

2. What Danziger & De Llano Says They Do

The firm positions itself as a national asbestos and mesothelioma law practice based in Houston, Texas. They’ve been around for decades (the domain dates back to 2002), and they claim billions in settlements. The site’s clean, direct, and focused on asbestos victims — at least on the surface.

There’s a mix of pages highlighting meso case results, client testimonials, and practice areas beyond asbestos — including personal injury and, somewhat surprisingly, crypto fraud. It’s a reminder that even established firms are expanding into modern niches.

One small but nice touch: they do publish real settlement examples, like a nearly $6 million award for a demolition worker exposed to asbestos! That’s the kind of transparency more firms should adopt.

3. What They’re Getting Right

A. They’ve Got History (and it Shows)

In an age of pop-up “mesothelioma claim” sites that disappear in a year, Danziger & De Llano has staying power. Two decades online, with a legitimate Houston office, suggests a real operation. Look at one of their founding partners on Avvo, Paul Danziger.

Their May 2025 relaunch was smart timing. The new site feels cleaner, faster, and written for humans (not just Google crawlers). There’s also a visible phone number and clear disclaimers — details that build trust almost subconsciously.

B. They Know Their Lane

A lot of law firms chase every trending keyword. This one mostly sticks to asbestos and mesothelioma content, which is good. That specialization matters in litigation you want a team that’s been in the trenches and knows all the players, not dabbling on the side.

C. They Speak to Emotion Without Exploiting It

The testimonials page isn’t over-the-top. It’s emotional, sure, but not manipulative. There’s a line between empathy and marketing and to their credit, they seem aware of it.

4. Where the Red Flags Start to Show

A. The Privacy Curtain

Here’s the first thing that gave us pause: the domain is privately registered. Now, that’s not illegal or even rare, but it does hide who actually owns the site. When you’re claiming to fight for transparency and justice, public-facing clarity goes a long way.

B. The Review Problem

Let’s address the elephant in the room: Bad Reviews. At the time of review, Dandell.com has a 1-star review from six reviewers vs 100’s of positive 5-star reviews. That’s rough. Some might dismiss it as internet noise every firm has unhappy clients, but a consistent pattern of poor communication or unmet expectations usually points to deeper operational gaps.

C. A Step Toward More Public Transparency

Until recently, it was hard to find much independent reporting about the firm’s actual activity in asbestos litigation and cases they have co-managed with other law firms. That changed with a new report released through PR Newswire, highlighting how families and veterans are driving a rise in asbestos-related claims nationwide.

The piece doesn’t read like fluff it underscores the long tail of asbestos exposure and the firm’s continuing involvement in these cases. That kind of visibility helps counter criticism from other competing law firms in the space.

5. What This Means for Potential Clients

If you’re a patient or family member thinking about calling Danziger & De Llano, here’s what we’d tell you if you were sitting across the table from us:

• If you’re a patient or family member thinking about calling Danziger & De Llano, here’s what we’d tell you if you were sitting across the table from us:
• Ask direct questions. Request specifics, actual case results, attorney bios, and references. The best firms don’t hesitate. In fact, the strong ones welcome those conversations because they know transparency builds trust.
• Clarify the fee structure early. Every mesothelioma firm works on contingency, but the percentage (and expenses) can vary. Get it in writing. A good attorney will walk you through it clearly and won’t make you feel rushed or pressured that’s a green flag, not a red one.
• Check bar listings and disciplinary records. It takes five minutes and could save you a lot of regret later. The top firms tend to have clean records and, more importantly, reputations they’re proud to stand behind.
• Notice how they make you feel. The best mesothelioma lawyers treat families like partners, not transactions. If you leave the first call feeling respected, heard, and a little lighter that’s a sign you’re probably in good hands.
