Sage Advisor, Skilled, Attentive & Dedicated Lawyer

David Sherman is one of the most capable and intelligent lawyers I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I received his referral form a professional colleague. David went above and beyond to make time for me whenever I had a concern or issue via phone and in his office. He dedicated his attention ...and always made sure to ask that all my questions were understood. He cares that his counsel is helpful as well. These are qualities of a skilled and attentive lawyer and I have found him invaluable. Thank you David - You are simply the BEST !

Best Attorney...EVER!!!

I simply cannot say enough About Attorney Sherman. I first met him almost 30 years ago, when I needed legal help after an injury at a gym. Without hesitation, he took the case, not in a way in which he was just taking a case for his own benefit, but he truly wanted to help me, and he did! He never... promised me that he could do anything extraordinary, and he warned me of potential difficulties. What I witnessed from him, though, was nothing short of miraculous! Attorney Sherman not only assisted me, beyond my wildest dreams, back then but, having needed his assistance even recently, I can say that he has not changed! If anything, he is even better than he was back then, and I thought he was the best, then! (On a side note, he remembered me. After all of those years, he remembered me and treated me like a friend, not a client. I will never forget him.) Though no one wants to need Attorney Sherman's services, because of the circumstances surrounding such a need, he will always be my first and only choice for myself, my family and my friends. He is wise beyond belief, compassionate and kind. There is none better!

Unparalleled trial attorney

David took on a case where we were convinced we were right but everybody told us the odds were low to get anything. It was significant damage from a storm to our house that came about because of a neighbor's negligence. David tirelessly fought the case for 3 years, long after we had given up on get...ting anything. I had the privilege to watch him in action in deposition. His ability to hone in on the critical details and drive them home so the defendant all but explicitly acknowledged he was right was unbelievable, it was like watching a movie. Finally, he was able to settle pre trial for 60% of what we were asking for which was unbelievably impressive. I will be glad to personally recommend david - please ask David for my contact information if you are interested in further detailed recommendation.

  • 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.
