Law Office Of Mark Daniel Melnick

Mark Daniel Melnick's friends and clients call him Dan. He was born in Santa Monica and spent his childhood in the San Fernando Valley. After graduating from high school, Dan went to work as a production assistant for United Artists and spent almost a year making (and lending a cameo to) the film Fiddler On The Roof. After coming back to the United States, Dan attended UCLA and received his bachelor’s degree there in 1975. That summer, he helped a friend build a sixty-foot cement sailboat and joined him for its maiden voyage to Hawaii, a three-month journey of over 2500 miles! After this odyssey, Dan enrolled in University of San Fernando Valley School of Law and obtained his J.D. in 1979. While attending school, Dan worked both as a deli clerk and a member of the night crew at Ralph’s, a grocery store in Sherman Oaks, and he remains friends with many of the individuals with whom he worked during that time there.
