I heard about David through a family friend a while back after getting a DWI on New Years eve a few years back and needless to say it was one of the best decisions of my life. Upon contacting David for services, he was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and experienced. I quickly hired him as my ...lawyer and he made sure to keep me informed throughout the process with regards to costs, what to expect, and what it will take to overcome. Needless to say, the outcome was exactly as he told me it would be and everything worked out in the end! Highly recommend David!

I first met David at about 10 pm on holiday after spending almost 22 hours in jail accused of driving while intoxicated. Unknown to me at the time, my husband had hired David earlier that day after receiving a recommendation from our family attorney. Without hesitation, David accepted the case and c...ame to criminal court in Manhattan to defend me on that holiday night. I have never been in a criminal court room, much less a defendant in a criminal proceeding, and I was scared and clueless as to what was going on. All I did know was that I had been up for over 24 hours, without a shower and sitting next to people charged with much more serious crimes than me. David handled the arraignment flawlessly. Because I had a high “blow”, the ADA was only offering a misdemeanor, 2 days of community service, a 6 month suspended license and an ignition interlock device on my car. That night David rejected their offer and afterwards explained the strategy he would use to convince the ADA that a misdemeanor was an excessive plea given my age, (read: Mature lady) and the fact that I have never been involved in a criminal proceeding. Well, it took several months, 2 postponements and calls to the ADA, her supervisor, and the lead ADA for both misdemeanors and felonies to get them to re-consider their offer. This was the hard, behind the scenes work that David did for me! Of course, there was no guarantee that David would be successful, but I felt very comfortable that David had the experience and the ability to argue for a reduced offense. In the end, David was successful, the charge was reduced to a violation, I had my license suspended for just 90 days and the community service was eliminated from my plea. I could not be happier with the work that David did for me. He is great guy that was fully engaged on my behalf with extensive court room experience, (he was also an ADA in the Bronx for many years). David has a keen mind and a friendly person.

When I got arrested at 3:00 am I called my brother from the holding cell at 5:30 am and he immediately conferenced David on the line. As soon as I spoke to him he alleviated all my fears and told me what to expect for the next few hours. When he arrived he was able to negotiate my felony down to a vi...olation and I was out of there in a flash. His contact information definitely needs to be shared with family and friends in case of emergency.
