D. Daniel Woody, Esquire

Daniel Woody specializes in appeals and education-based civil rights claims, including special education matters, bullying, and cases of physical and sexual abuse. 
 
While in college, Dan studied child psychology and developed a passion for advocating for children with special needs. This led him to become a special education teacher before attending law school. After graduating, he worked for a law firm representing school districts and charter schools in a variety of matters, but primarily special education cases. However, his true passion remained advocating for students with disabilities. Thus, while also working in the Appeals Unit of the Delaware County District Attorney’s Office, Dan joined Woody Law Offices and began representing students.
 
In the District Attorney’s Office, Dan developed into a seasoned appellate practitioner and earned a reputation as an excellent writer and hard worker. He now is combining both his passions to help parents and students in complex special education, civil rights, and appellate matters. Aside from three years of studying law and skiing in Colorado, Dan has lived and then practiced in Media all his life. He is a graduate of the University of Denver, Sturm College of Law and Penn State University with a B.A. in Psychology.
