Our Professionals

Danny O’Connor

I was born and raised in Arizona, and my last name is not a coincidence. I grew up listening to my parents discuss their legal cases and arguing with them about law and politics at the dinner table. Eventually, I learned the virtue of humility when I attended law school myself. In school, I focused on areas related to civil litigation and trial practice. I practiced as a Rule 38 Intern at the City of Phoenix Prosecutor’s Office, where I prepped dozens of trials and conducted five of them to verdict. I was also fortunate enough to travel to Hong Kong to compete in the Vis International Arbitration Moot East. Today, I find the work we do here engaging and deeply rewarding for both me and our clients. My favorite thing to do these days is spend time with my baby niece, Bobby. She brightens up every day, and hearing her laugh melts my heart! I also enjoy any activity that gets me outdoors: hiking, fishing, skiing, etc. Despite my age, I do not identify as a millennial.
