David Lee Sellers's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse David
Susan Ann Bleiler headshot
Susan Bleiler

Personal injury lawyer | Jun 21

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Sellers is a consummate professional and tireless advocate on behalf of his clients. His many years of experience and extensive knowledge and legal abilities in the areas of personal injury and criminal law make him a formidable foe in the courtroom and in advancing the legal objectives of his clients. While Mr. Sellers has no difficulty being direct and addressing the hard issues with his clients, he never fails to do so in a caring and compassionate manner -- a "real plus" for those who are trying to negotiate the legal system in what is often a difficult time in their lives."

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2006.

Admonishment issued in FL, 2006

updated on 05/18/2016

An admonition means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The Bar gives the lawyer an admonition in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

David’s comment:

“This was due to a loss of records and displacement of the courthouse and clerk's offices, which occurred following Hurricane Ivan, resulting in not filing a motion (for which there was no arguable basis) within the time allowed”
