About David
Biography
In addition to my professional experience as an attorney, I have served as an officer in the United States Army Reserve since 2004. Currently I work as an Engineer officer. My time in the service has been spent doing construction and logistics management, and I am a veteran with a tour of duty in Kandahar, Afghanistan. My time in the service has only increased my desire to help people with their legal issues, as I saw first hand how the trouble from a small legal issue could balloon to affect the Soldiers under my command. I want to put the dedication and hard work that I have applied to my military career to work for you as an advocate and counselor to help you resolve your legal issues.
