David Alan Nelson's Peer Endorsements

I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Nelson is an honorable man and I trust his judgement.

I highly recommend and endorse Attorney David Nelson. I consistently refer my family law clients to his law firm for criminal matters, which is the highest compliment I can give another attorney. Not only is Mr. Nelson a highly ethical attorney, he works diligently to provide his clients with excellent service to achieve the best outcome possible. He has also worked as a Guardian ad Litem (GAL) on cases in which I represent a party, and I have found his work as a GAL to be equally impressive. Mr. Nelson was previously the President of the Whatcom County Bar Association, he serves on the board of directors for Lydia Place, and he often acts as a Pro Tem Judge in various municipal courts in Whatcom County. Because of his vase experience, I consider Mr. Nelson to be a knowledgeable resource, and I seek his valuable input on a regular basis.
