Great results!

David represented myself and two others after we were involved in a car accident. Throughout the process he was very informative and transparent as to what the process would entail and to the court prices on a whole. I am very happy with him and his office's conduct and handling of our case and would... not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in a similar circumstance.

My Awesome injury Lawyer!

I met David back in 2011, I was in pretty bad car accident the day before my first son was born. So needless to say I needed an injury lawyer. I talked to a couple injury lawyers and they seemed almost irritated by my case I guess because it wasn’t a multi million dollar one and it gave me a bad gut... feeling. Then I talked to David and we hit it off right away, it was like talking to a close friend or family member. He put my needs first and made sure everything was taking my care of during the whole process. I barely had to lift a finger. He did all the work and everything went really well. I was beyond happy the way everything went. He truly is amazing at his job and a very good man. I’m happy I hired him. It’s now 2018 and I used him 2 more times for cases since my first case and they all went extremely well just like the first case. I highly recommend hiring David, you won’t be disappointed that’s for sure.

Caring and Thorough Counsel

I came to Mr Weissman through his partner, David Raybin, who has an excellent reputation in Nashville. Mr. Raybin referred our case to Mr. Weissman, who specializes in personal injury and auto accident cases. Mr. Weitzman did not disappoint. He showed excellent judgment in planning our case and t...hen true expertise in prosecuting the case against the insurance company. The result of his efforts led to a truly extraordinay settlement in our favor in light of the particular facts and circumstances of the case. Mr. Weitzman and his staff were responsive and professional throughout. I highly recommend Mr. Weitzman for auto accident and personal injury cases.

Moms Fall in Hotel lobby

My mother was on a vacation with her church group to Nashville,TN. Upon the last day of her trip getting ready to leave from the hotel, Her foot caught in a bad area rug in the hotel lobby and fell and broke her femur with a compound fracture. Realizing that mom would face a lot of pain and rehabilit...ation, I ask for the hotel to share their part of responsibility for the accident. To no avail I was unable to get any cooperation from the hotel corp. I began my search for a local attorney and was lucky enough to find Mr. David Weissman. Wow!!!!! Could not have been a better selection. It was almost like a God send. This man was exactly the type of Attorney my mother needed. My mom is a quite and humble christian mother never looking to cause trouble or blame but needed someone just like David. When I called David and told him what had happened and where and sent pictures, he was also amazed. He had had a similar case recently from the same hotel with the same rug with the same picture and was surprised I was sending him a picture of the fall area in which he had the very same from the previous client he represented. Furthermore, David was so caring and compassionate towards my Mom and my family. It was as if God himself chose him to represent my Mom. David , every step of the way kept us informed about what he would be doing and how he would be helping. We never felt neglected or put off. It felt very personable. As if we were his very own family members. We cannot sing enough praises for his compassion and tireless efforts to help give my Mom the representation she needed to help her achieve a settlement claim that was worthy of her injury and her pain and recovery. I most certainly would recommend David with a 10 Star review. I am very grateful as a son trying to help look out for his mom to have someone like David who took such a personal interest in helping mom have the representation legally that she needed. Thanks again David for all of your hard work, legal knowledge and tireless and personal efforts you offered to my mom and family.

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.
