10 STARS In My Book!

Posted by

After calling other bk lawyers for their services which were marginal and fees over-inflated, I took to Google and found David Cahn. I personally spoke with him, he was reasonable, and he outlined a plan for me to overcome a scheduled lawsuit by a creditor. I was skeptical at first--but, was soon very assured with his professionalism and willingness to go the extra mile. The plan succeeded! Even down to the wire David exceedingly did what he said he would do, as I too committed to my part, I emerged from the depths of drowning to a new life-line and peace-of- mind. I highly recommend David Cahn, he is an awesome lawyer, who is a devoted professional, capable, willing, and on-top-of-his-craft to assist anyone who is in need of his services. He is 10 STARS in my book if only these recommendations offered it!

Prompt, professional and concise

Posted by

He arrived at the time I expected and found me. The traffic citation that forced me to appear was dismissed. He did a great job of clearly explaining what was happening throughout the entire process. My first appearance in court was simpler and less stressful than I expected thanks to his expertise.

Everything you're looking for in a lawyer

After working with Mr. Cahn for 5+ years, I highly recommend him to anyone looking for legal advice. He is deeply knowledgeable of the law, compassionate, and personable. I have never been left waiting to hear back after leaving a message, and feel that his attention is 100% with me & on my issue when we meet. I deeply appreciate his thoughtfulness and willingness to fully explain the (sometimes minute) details of the law and how they apply to my current situation. I feel confident in his council and look forward to many more years of working together.

Wish I Could Give Him 6 Stars!

He has thoughtfully & thoroughly explained the various considerations of each specific situation and given sound, reliable advice time and time again. With his guidance, we have been able to navigate issues with ease and success. If there were 6 stars I'd be more than happy to give him every one. To find a lawyer who is not only highly knowledgeable about the law, but thoughtful, kind, respectful, understanding, AND affordable (!) is a very special thing. We are incredibly grateful to have him on our side, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for council.
