Unemployment compensation case

Dave is a down to earth easy to talk to attorney. He took the time to hear all my concerns regarding an unemployment dispute and was very thorough and persistent with everything. Going above and beyond to have several discussions prior to the hearing. He made me feel heard, understood, and made it known that my discrepancies were valid and of importance.

My automobile accident savior!

My Auto Accident Savior! David represented me in my worker’s compensation case and did a fantastic job. I was so pleased, I asked him to represent me in a subsequent automobile accident. David was able to get me the policy limits from the driver that caused the accident and then the policy limits from my own insurance carrier. He then negotiated with Medicare and was able to save me thousands more. He really helped out when I needed him most. Thank you David!

The only guy I’d hire

I’ve known Dave my whole life. When I got in a bad accident on my motorcycle, he was the only person I called. He was there from the hospital to helping me get social security disability. It’s been a long road but Dave’s been there the whole way. He gets my highest recommendation!
