About David

Biography

I was raised in South Florida where I grew up fishing, boating, rooting for the Dolphins, and spending entirely too much time in the sun. After finishing high school in Fort Lauderdale, I attended Florida State University, home of the Seminoles. After graduating, I went to the Florida State University College of Law where I obtained my Juris Doctorate in 1989.

I moved back to South Florida where I began practicing law. I was fortunate enough to have a successful run with my own firm for almost twenty years. During this time, I was instrumental in growing the firm from a two attorney shop into an 11 attorney/ 50 support staff firm with two offices. I devoted my practice to fighting for the rights of the injured and aggrieved, dedicating 100% of my efforts to the rights of the individual, be it personal injury, social security disability or insurance/ contract disputes. I tried over 100 cases to completion in Florida and was successful in obtaining great results- largely by virtue of outworking the other guy. I developed many of the traits that serve me well today- organization, hard work, and a single- minded desire to do the best job possible for my clients.

Far more important though, it was there I met my beautiful wife Rosy. After being blessed with two great little girls, Jennifer and Jessica, we took a look at the proverbial landscape and determined West Palm Beach was not the place to raise kids. Our travels ultimately brought us to Middle Tennessee. I have found this to be the perfect place for us- peaceful, friendly and a heavy emphasis on education. Additionally, we love the people. Tennessee deserves its reputation as the "friendliest place in the country".

Since moving to Tennessee, I have learned to love country music and generally spent a lot of quality time raising my kids. I still fish, boat, and spend entirely too much time in the sun. Now, however, I root for the Titans! After all these years, I consider myself a lnatice.

Professionally, it was a priority to find a firm committed to providing the best representation available. I firmly believe the client deserves nothing less. Over the course of my career, I have earned certain accolades that reflect this dedication. I am AV rated by Martindale Hubble (the highest rating a lawyer can achieve) and a longtime member of Best Lawyers in America and Tennessee Super Lawyers. It was important to me to join a like-minded group. In that regard, I have been blessed to partner with David Raybin and be a member of Raybin & Weissman. This is a great group that works hard, loves the law and places the priority on the client's needs and results. I look forward to a long future in the Nashville legal community and look forward to helping you in any way I can be of assistance.

Fighting to protect you and your loved ones for over twenty years.

Greatest Attorney ever!

David was a pleasure to work with very personable and professional. If I ever need an injury attorney again he would be my first choice.

Jenna

I'm very grateful to have worked with David Weissman and his team on my case. A very traumatic accident left me with an injury that caused a lot of unnecessary pain and suffering. I felt very supported and guided through the whole process that felt so daunting. He was very responsive and always expl...ained everything so I understood what the next steps were in my case. I hope I'm never in this situation again but at least I know who I can trust.

Compassionate Attorney

When I was injured in a car accident I was already undergoing treatments for a complex medical condition. My hope was flickering when new injuries from the car accident added devastating complications to my day to day life. Dave was compassionate, kind and generous with his guidance and professional...ism. He met me where I was at - all along the way - and stayed honest with me about my options. I am grateful for his honesty and humility. His paralegal, Sharon, is a gem. She truly cares about each person they work with and goes the extra mile!

Perfect Outcome

Attorney Weissman did an amazing job. He was extremely communicative throughout the whole case. The outcome he projected the day we met was the outcome we received. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needed legal assistance with any personal injury case.

Professional, direct, kind, patient, and follows through!

I was rear-ended by a reckless/careless driver and have suffered greatly from the crash. David was very patient and kind during the process and insisted I focus on getting the right medical care and my recovery. He reached out to me regularly checking on the medical care I was receiving, how I was do...ing, and kept me abreast as to what was happening with the case. Thank you David.
