Few eight-year-olds say they want to be a lawyer when they grow up.
But Daniel Schneiderman did.
And though most other adults end up in careers quite different from what they’d envisioned at age eight, Daniel achieved his childhood goal. Currently a name partner in Gingery Hammer & Schneiderman LLP, a California firm specializing in personal injury law, Daniel previously served as a deputy district attorney for Sacramento County and ran a solo practice. Among other accolades, he has been rated by Super Lawyers as being within the top 2.5% of attorneys under 40.
All this, he says with a laugh, makes him “the odd duck” in his family. His parents and his brother are physicians, and his paternal grandfather, an engineer, was the project manager for several Mariner space missions, including Mariner 4, which provided the first close-up photos of Mars.
