Great Experience

Throughout a stressful event in my life, David was helpful, responsive, and professional. The final court hearing was a positive experience simply because he was prepared and I only had to give simple answers to his questions- I saw many people flounder for answers because they were nervous and I'm ...so glad he made it so easy. I would certainly recommend him to friends and already have.

Excellent, Competent, Thorough Attorney

David Hoffman is an excellent attorney. He is very competent, knowledgeable, and thorough. He cares greatly about the interests of his clients and advocates aggressively to advance those interests. I highly recommend attorney David Hoffman.

Extremely efficient and thorough

I had a family law case that was not going everywhere. The case was open for a year and there was no movement so I hired David and could not believe how quickly he responded and followed-up on everything. He made sure that my rights were protected and he helped expedite the case. I have recommended ...David to a few friends and they have shared similar results with me. David is a fantastic and ethical attorney and when he says he will do something, he does it. Hiring David has been one of my better decisions and I wish I would have done so earlier. I will definitely continue to recommend David for any family law issues.

Mr Hoffman helped me obtain a permanent injunction for protection against stalking

Accompanied me in court on four occasions in July and August 2015. He helped me achieve my goal of getting a permanent injunction for protection against stalking. He was recommended to me by a relative, and proved to be quite effective in representing me. I highly recommend him to others seeking s...imilar services.

Helpful, Tech Friendly, Knowledgeable

I met David through a mutual friend and he represented me in a DVI hearing. He was very helpful, tech friendly, and knowledgeable on the applicable laws. In some (most) of the family law stuff, there's a certain amount of "therapist" required and David, gratefully, was a very gracious listener. Becau...se of these traits, I recommended my parents hire him to represent them in their DVI case.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
