Daniel Woofter is a partner at Goldstein & Russell, P.C., a boutique firm that specializes in representing clients at all stages before the U.S. Supreme Court. Daniel has briefed dozens of federal appellate and Supreme Court matters—helping clients ranging from the world’s largest corporations like Google and Qualcomm to pro bono capital defendants—and presented oral arguments before the Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Ninth Circuits, as well as the Michigan Supreme Court and several state and federal trial courts.
Before joining the firm, Daniel clerked for the Honorable Pamela A. Harris of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit and the Honorable Judith E. Levy for the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. Before that, Daniel practiced law at the Boston office of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C., where he worked on commercial litigation, as well as civil rights and asylum cases.
Daniel received his J.D. from the Georgetown University Law Center. At Georgetown, Daniel had the pleasure of being in the inaugural SCI Judicial Clerkship Practicum, where he learned from the incomparable Dori Bernstein–who became a mentor and, more importantly, dear friend. Prior to law school, Daniel received a Bachelor of Music in Classical Vocal Performance from The Boston Conservatory.
