A Gefilte Fish Among the Sharks

David represented me twice: First (in 2006) in a personal-injury case (rear-ended by a youth-driven SUV at a highway toll plaza), which he passed on to a Workers' Comp specialist; the second time (in 2007), as well, in a personal-injury case (again, rear-ended by an uninsured immigrant, at a stop lig...ht). In both instances, David worked diligently on my behalf. What was very important to me was that he did not allow any "ego issues" to prevent referring me to someone else who could best represent me. In both instances, David represented me faithfully, met with me regularly, and always kept me "in the loop"; he never made decisions where my input was necessary, without first consulting me, informing me of the "why" and "how" of the choices, and the "pros" and "cons" involved. David was, truly, an advocate for me and my best interests. I continue to consult with him on all my legal matters, and do not hesitate to refer others to him.

Personal injury lawyer | Jun 15

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. David Pefka is very experienced in the handling of personal injury cases. He has been representing injured people for more than twenty years and it shows. He knows how to get the maximum settlement possible when someone is injured, how to help a client get his car back on the road and most importantly, how to help an accident victim get back on the road of life. His compassion is unparalleled and is only exceeded by his knowledge of the law and of life. David is known as the "lawyer's lawyer" and all of us look up to him for both his knowledge and his ethics. I recommend David Pefka without any hesitation."
