Amazing Experience!!
David was amazing! He was referred to me by a friend who also is a lawyer & it spoke volumes about his expertise. He was extremely knowledgeable, diligent, and strategic. He is not only a lawyer but also an attorney who has been to trial - a true subject matter expert! I cannot say enough great thing...

Got me a better severance package
I hired David to represent me in negotiating a severance package based on wrongful termination. He was very empathetic to my situation, which I appreciated, and he asked me a lot of questions to fully understand the scope. He also got the job done and got me more money. I definitely recommend working...

Superb Service and Advocacy
David represented me in a discrimination complaint against an employer and led the action to a successful outcome. He was attentive to my needs and dealt deftly with the respondent. Couldn't recommend him more.
