David A Avedissian

I have had multiple consulations with Mr. Avedissian on issues detrimental affecting our organization. On at least 3 occasions he provided us with sound advice, consultation, and rewrites to our organization and did it for us pro bono on 2 occasions and attempted to provide it free the 3rd, but we in...sisted he charge. Even then he charged us the minimum. Now, we just may need him for some serious representation and despite him trying to NOT take our money, we're gonna hire him anyone. Many attorneys are happy to take your money on frivelous lawsuits... David is not that guy.

I hired David A. Avedissian to help out with a insane claim by my son’s former landlord seeking compensation for unpaid property damages and unpaid utility bills. David told us upfront, that he didn’t usually take on small claims court cases because often the costs exceeded the amount of the claim. H...aving never been to court and not wanting the landlord to feel he could take advantage of “novice” renters like my son, I asked David to take the case anyway. Throughout the process, David demonstrated outstanding professional competence and was extremely helpful in setting my son at ease, obtaining the facts, and preparing him for trial. After hearing David walking my son through his side of the facts, the trial judge ruled in my sons favor and dismissed the case against him. Justice served! After reviewing a final bill for David’s services, I was quite surprised. While David’s hourly rate was high (but competitive) he charged what I believed to be minimal hours for the time he spent. David total cost was less than a third of what the former landlord sought in damages. Needless to say, I was quite pleased. I would hire David again and would recommend him to represent any one facing similar charges.

This was a property matter that involved a transfer of ownership, the creation of a new legal entity, and the creation of a lease agreement. Mr. Avedissian was very responsive in getting all the matters resolved in a prompt and cost effective manner. I was extremely pleased with his handling of my s...ituation especially since we were a bit pressed for time to get everything done. He did an outstanding job!

I would not recommend this attorney. An attorney is supposed to look out for the better interest of their client. The attorney was unresponsive, evasive, and untruthful on numerous occasions. Seemed that he was only interested in the money aspect (getting paid) and did little to nothing to prove m...y case. I believe that ethics may have been breached and that is unacceptable. Proof exists that I was lied to on more than one occasion. The Board of Ethics is interested in hearing about situations such as this.
