David Laufman Weigert's Lawyer Endorsements
William Harris
Environmental and natural resources lawyer | Dec 19
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"David's precision to detail, tireless work ethic and passion for what he does makes him a great lawyer."
"Over the years and in countless conversations, I have greatly benefitted from David's keen sense of justice and his sharp and logical perception of the law in its many ramifications. As a clear thinker and driven litigator, David would excel anywhere."
"Dave is a smart lawyer with good judgment."

"I have known David since law school, and his wit and enthusiasm for the law is just as keen now as it was 20 years ago. In a profession known for gentlemen and scholars, David stands head and shoulders above his peers as a keen legal mind who is not afraid to get his hands dirty and dig into all the minutiae of a case. I've tried to lure him away from the government into private practice at least once in the past, and now have simply resigned myself to seeing him steadily climb the steps at the Department of Justice. When I get a call from him in a few years announcing that he is head of DOJ Environmental, it will not surprise me in the least. I heartily endorse his work."
