Posted by B | January 29, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Litigation

If you want to lose your case, hire him.

David Frondiled’s conduct fell well below professional standards. He was late to a scheduled hearing and joined the incorrect Zoom proceeding. He appeared unclear about fundamental procedural requirements and was unable to articulate the proper course of action. His behavior was disorganized, unprepa...red, and accompanied by a visibly bad temper, creating an intimidating and unprofessional atmosphere. This conduct wasted judicial resources and resulted in a highly negative experience.

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.
