Posted by anonymous | August 12, 2013 | Corporate & Incorporation

Creative, Dedicated and Solid

We required work on a complex fact pattern, with difficult deadlines and a novel issue of law arising under Delaware corporate law. As principal outside counsel to the client, we worked with David and his partner to craft a precise strategy and the pleadings to be filed. David's work was creative. ...He was dedicated and simply a solid litigator who earned our highest respect.

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.
