A Great Lawyer

David is an excellent lawyer, listens carefully to minute details. He helped me untangle my car crash situation with the insurance and updated me of the evolution of my case all the way to the end. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who wants a successful output of their car accidents and injur...ies cases...

Best Lawyer in Boston

I was in a really bad car accident back in 2010 and the insurance guys were giving me such a hard time. I wasn't getting anything resolved except denial of their responsibility. I found Altman & Altman and I met with Dave after meeting with two other law firms. I was very impressed with the professio...nalism and attention to detail I was given with Dave's firm. I made the right choice by hiring Dave to handle my case. He handled all disputes with the insurance company, sorting out all my bills, keeping me updated, and in the end delivered as promised. I would totally recommend this guy and his team. You're in good hands when you got these guys on your side. Like he says "they are the best lawyers in Boston"....Thanks Again man.

  • 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.
