Amazing lawyer

David was very understanding and professional. This was our first time having to hire an attorney and given the situation with our case, I truly believe we could not have won without him. We were the defendants and it was quite clear David put in the research to form a strong argument for our side in... the trial. We felt so relieved when we found out we won our case. I would recommend David Sanborn for anyone who is unsure who to hire to represent them.

he was my lawyer for my unemployment benefits.

I hired atty. David Sanborn for an unemployment benefits hearing. I must say he was great and my case went great. The decision was in my favor. I will definitely recommend him. He took his time to understand and my decision was reverse, I could not ask for anything more.

Happy with result

Mr. Sanborn successfully represented my family in a landlord/tenant dispute. I found him to be very easy to work with and professional in his interactions. He took time to fully understand the issues and formulated a reasonable and effective approach to resolving the problems. It is my opinion t...hat one of his best traits is his ability to listen to and counsel clients that have no experience or expertise in legal matters. He is kind, he is competent, his fees are pretty standard and I saw no waste or over billing. If the need arises I will certain retain him again.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
