He nailed it !!!!
David handled my case like a pro. He was always honest with me, although sometimes I did not want to hear it . He listened to me and did what was right for me. He got the job done: My case was dropped. Thank you so much David . I wish you the best !!!

Wonderful lawyer!
David not only got me exactly what I wanted in terms of my court case but he is also sympathetic, kind and answered all of my questions immediately through a call or an email no matter what time or day it was. Could not ask for a better lawyer and I highly recommend him.

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2016.
Suspension issued in NY, 2016
updated on 12/07/2017Suspended means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

This firm has represented over one thousand clients and there has never been a complaint from a client and no discipline has ever been administered as result of the representation of a client.”
