Difficult matter resolved expertly.

David dealt expertly, timely and competently with my difficult matter. He was accurate in the guidance and direction he offered with solid knowledge of the steps involved in moving my matter through the court system. He was conscious of time frames without wasting time or expenses. I look forward ...to being able to recommend his services and expertise in the future.

Contempt of court case dealing with divorce.

I used David for a follow-up to my divorce. I used him upon recommendation of another attorney through a friend. He was extremely knowledgeable and did an excellent job. Always do your research before hiring a lawyer and don't try to say money up front.

Very Good Lawyer - Compassionate and Focused

I met David for what was to be a simple non contested divorce - which turned out to be a roller coaster ride from hell. David was more than just an attorney - he helped calm the waters during a what was a very difficult time dealing with the crazy person (of course we all say that about or ex's). He... took time to understand my position and offered outstanding advise. He was 110% in my corner and I was very happy with the results. I would highly recommend him to anyone going thru a simple or contested divorce. For a lawyer he is a great guy too. Cathie is great to work with too she was on top of things and extremely professional. Very nice lady and compassionate too.
