Daniel Weiner

Daniel R. Weiner is the Founder and CEO at Weiner Law: Trust, Probate & Litigation Lawyers. He works with individuals and families across California on estate planning, trust administration, and probate, with a practical focus on helping clients make clear decisions during times that often feel uncertain.

Daniel’s background combines U.S. practice with an international legal perspective. He earned his law degree from the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom and later completed a Master of Laws (LLM) at Duke University School of Law. Before launching his San Diego practice, he spent more than a decade at international law firms, including Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe and Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, where he developed a detail-oriented approach to complex legal and financial issues.

Today, Daniel’s work centers on building estate plans that reflect real family priorities, as well as guiding trustees, beneficiaries, and personal representatives through trust administration and probate. His practice has also been described as including estate tax minimization planning, special needs planning, and Medi-Cal asset protection planning, depending on a client’s goals and circumstances.

Daniel is admitted to the State Bar of California and maintains an active license. He stays engaged with the broader trusts and estates community through professional involvement and service. He has also been invited to speak on topics such as charitable giving and international estate planning, and he supports nonprofit and community organizations through leadership and advisory roles.

Clients appreciate Daniel’s calm, structured approach and his focus on helping families understand their options before moving forward. At San Diego Probate Attorneys, he brings that same mindset to every matter: careful listening, clear guidance, and steady support from the first conversation through resolution.
