Daniel Miller has experience in both litigation and corporate transactional work. Mr. Miller has litigated issues in real estate, entertainment, commercial litigation, and intellectual property. He obtained a multi-million dollar award for age discrimination, age-based harassment and constructive discharge. The Award followed a three-week arbitration hearing and included punitive damages and an award of attorneys fees under California's Fair Employment and Housing Act. He also successfully obtained a preliminary injunction preventing a lender from foreclosing on a large condominium project in Long Beach, California. The injunction saved the real estate developer from losing their interest in the project.

He also represented one of the largest homebuilders in the country in a multi-million dollar partnership dispute over a large residential development project. In entertainment, he defended a prominent music management company in a multi-million dollar lawsuit for invasion of privacy, sexual harassment, unfair competition and other claims which resulted in a settlement under which the music management company paid nothing to the plaintiff. Mr. Miller also obtained a dismissal of all claims against the same music management company in defense of a lawsuit for unfair competition and interference with contract.

In transactional, he has worked on mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance and intellectual property licensing agreements. Deciphering transactional documents and working on intense corporate finance transactions has given Mr. Miller a unique understanding and background for litigation. Mr. Miller's extensive experience with corporate transactions makes him an asset to the firm's complex litigation practice.
