After finishing Law School at UGA I moved to Middle Georgia to start my legal career. I have been practicing here for 21 years, focusing the entirety of that time on representing seriously ill or injured individuals in a variety of claims. Over this time I have represented hundreds of clients in workers' compensation claims and in disability cases before the Social Security Administration. I have also handled numerous personal injury claims, whether arising out of motor vehicle accidents or else from other instances of injuires incurred due to the negligence of another. My firm is experienced in handling injury issues of all kinds.
Outside of my work life my biggest joy is spending time with my wife and two children. I have been coaching little league baseball for 7 seasons, and I have been blessed to be able to spend that time with my son.

"David is probably one of the top Worker's Compensation attorneys in the area. He has a wonderfully calm disposition, which certainly gives his clients reassurance in tough times. I know from personal experience that clients out of work from injury require special handling, as the temptation is to settle too early, before obtaining full compensation for an injury. David's equanimty helps his clients wait until the optimum moment to receive maximum recovery."
"David has been my partner for 10 years. He provides excellent representation to his clients with a hand on approach."
"I first worked for David as an associate for 6 years and I have been one of his law partners for the past 5 years. David is one of the best workers' compensation and social security lawyers in the state. He works tirelessly for his clients and no one know the law better than he does. He was a patient and knowledgeable mentor, and is well respected by fellow claimants' lawyers as well as by defense lawyers."
"David knows all the ins and outs of Workers' Compensation law. He will fight aggressively for his clients' rights and do everything within his power to seek a fair and just result for his clients. I endorse his work without hesitation."
"David is a terrific attorney who represents his clients to the fullest. I've discussed various areas of law with David, and he has a grasp on the changes in the law as they occur. He is a team player, and not afraid to reach out to other attorneys, whether on his "side" or the other. His respect in the community is impeccable, and I would not hesitate to recommend his services to someone."
"I endorse this lawyer. David and I have worked on many cases together for the past several years. He is very knowledgeable in workers compensation and social security disability. He truly cares about his clients and is an asset to the Middle Georgia area. We tried a case together in Greene County, Georgia in 2007 and had a successful result."
