Highly Recommend

My company has worked with Dave for several years. Dave is excellent in many ways but his ability to explain rather confusing law terminology in a clear relatable manner is what helps me the most. Dave has friendly staff and will use his resources in the event of a need outside his scope. Dave plays ...an active role in my companies success.

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.
