Daisy, a fluent Spanish speaker, has been selected as an Illinois Super Lawyers - Rising Star for three consecutive years. She was featured in Univision—the major Spanish network in the US—discussing the $875,000 settlement of a case involving a client who was provided the wrong food and choked to death at a nursing home. She is also frequently invited to appear as a speaker on the nightly news to discuss other prescient issues affecting underrepresented communities.

During her time at Levin & Perconti, Daisy has worked on an array of cases, including a defamation lawsuit, a case involving a mental-health patient who was negligently discharged from a hospital and later jumped from her balcony and eventually died, and several other elder abuse, nursing home and medical malpractice cases. “This is an area of the law where one is constantly reminded of how the justice system impacts people in a very personal way,” she said. “Being a lawyer at this firm means that I can bring all my passion, compassion, and intellect to find legal solutions that quite literally change people's lives.”
