Professional, Experienced, and Determined. Need a highly competent lawyer? Better call Dave!

When I was in search of private council, I luckily found Gaurav Dave. I spoke to him on the phone where he provided free consultation and took his time to listen to me and then fully explain the details regarding my matter. Compared to the many other lawyers I spoke to, Dave was more concerned and kn...owledgeable about my matter and to great importance, had a much more reasonable fee. Upon hiring Dave, he stayed driven and optimistic about helping me get the best outcome I could with my case. Throughout the case, he kept me updated, informed, and also, assured that he was doing all that he could. Though it was a hard case to fight, to great surprise, Dave got me the lowest charge. Gaurav Dave conducts himself in a professional manner. He is very friendly and insightful with his clients. You won't feel like you're just another case with him. He is genuine in his concern and will put in the necessary time and effort to best benefit you. Though he may seem young compared to most lawyers, his energetic youth allows him to operate with great persistence and eagerness in helping his clients, where many older lawyers have become jaded and lack dynamic. From what I saw in our court location, he is well known and respected by the members of the court, including the prosecutor and judge. Though my case was a long process, Dave stayed focused and achieved the best possible result which made the time it took well worth it. I hope to never have to hire an attorney again, but if I do run into some legal trouble once more, I know who will fight relentlessly for me. If you're looking for a highly competent and experienced lawyer who will fight the odds for you, Gaurav D. Dave Esq is your friend.

Accident and points dismissal

Mr. Dave handled both these cases with extreme professionalism and we'd like to thank him for the dismissal of two sections in the court. In the future, if attorney services are needed, we would not go to anyone else. Thank you Mr. Gaurav.

Charges Lowered

Gaurav did a great job at having my charges dropped from Theft of Services to a municipal ordinance in Ewing Twp! As a student, that did not look good on my record. He has a lot of connections within the court house, especially with the prosecutor. After speaking with her, he managed to get my charge...s dropped to an ordinance and all I had to pay was a small fine. Gaurav is experienced in his area and did a great job representing me. Also, he is flexible with payments as well. I was very happy with my outcome and I definitely recommend him!

Traffic citation owner operator 18 wheeler

Dont hire if your livihood depends on it. We hired them to remove traffic tickets or points. They dropped the ball. Sent personal summons/affidavit information to a non existence email. Called them out on their mistakes. Of course they back pedaled. Now we end up paying attorney fees plus tickets and... my favorite a warrent out for an arrest. Instead of tickets costing 200.00 we should of plead guilty and went on our merry way. It cost us 600.00 plus from this mishap.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse Gaurav as a defense attorney because he's a talented advocate with visibly satisfied clients; and he has tremendous relationships with counsel, judges, and prosecutors. And I was particularly impressed with his co-handling of a multi-defendant firearm indictment that resulted in an outright dismissal by the state after the Superior Court ruled in our favor after a suppression hearing."
