Love Working with Katherine

Katherine has been an outstanding asset as my business attorney. So I was thrilled to learn of her expertise in trusts and estates. She shined there in new ways. As always, she was responsive, professional, and efficient. She helped me be conscientious on spend to produce the best value given my ...goals. But estate planning involves not only complicated legal options, but requires working through emotionally difficult choices. And my case was not an easy one. She was wonderful! Her strong communication skills, her demeanor, and her experience in how choices play out practically for families made a big difference. She got me over the finish line with a structure and documents that give me new comfort. And her knowledge of business law meant that aspects of my estate involving my business could be addressed in the process. She turned what could have been grueling with another attorney into an empowering experience.

A Very Satisfied Client

My wife and I decided to retain Katherine to provide us with estate planning advice. We find the young lady very enthusiastic, knowledgeable, thorough, responsive, accessible, and hard working. On at least two occasions, Katherine responded to my emails on her days off, and I really appreciate this... responsiveness. It shows that she does not only work hard but also care about her clients. It is absolutely a pleasure working with Katherine. We look forward to working with her to complete the rest our estate planning efforts.

David, Brody & Dondershine Review

We engaged David, Brody & Dondershine following a friends referral. My brother and I need a variety of documents including a wills, powers of attorney and medical advanced directives. We worked primarily with Katherine David. We met several times to provide her with the necessary information, rev...iew and finally sign the documents. She was consistently engaged and helpful and responsive at each step. She listened to our needs made helpful and insightful recommendations at each step. I wouldn't hesitate to engage her again. Thanks Katherine, for all your help.

Professional and Understanding

When I was in need of drafting a will (Estate Planning), I was recommended to use the firm where Katherine David is employed. As I explained to her, and her fellow attorney, that I was interested in having my will combined with a trust, it became clearly evident to me that Katherine was fully listen...ing to my concerns and thoughts. She asked very pertinent questions, while also responding to my questions with clear and concise answers. She was well-versed in how to make it all work to my satisfaction, and she able to explain it to me, a non-lawyer, in terms that any layman can understand. And not once did I feel as if she was talking down to me, but rather that she was explaining it to me the way a favorite teacher would. On top of all that, once we got to the actual drafting of the will, Katherine was very timely in getting the draft, and final, versions of the will and trust to me. She, along with her fellow lawyer and the office as a whole, always beat the general deadlines that we had all agreed upon. And once I got the documents, I (of course) had numerous questions for clarity, as I find that "legal-eez" can really confound me. She was always available to speak to me, and her re-explanations to me were always on-point, making me very confident in the whole process. Katherine David is an extremely patient, polite, professional, knowledgeable, and personable lawyer, and she remained so throughout the entire process. I highly recommend her - she is an excellent attorney.
