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.

Great will use again

From start to finish was knowledgeable, to the point, understanding even when we had a tone of questions. Work hard for us and made sure we were treated right and paid fairly. Didn’t over charge us treated us right, answered every email and call. Walked us through the whole process.

David is very communicative which is a huge plus!

He always timely answered and returned my calls or email messages. He worked hard for me and my rights that had been violated. He is easy to talk to! He never left me hanging not knowing what was going on. I would recommend David Weissman!

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.

Auto Accidents Happen

I put my trust in David Weissman's hands, and he handled the rest. Atty Weissman informed me of what he needed, and after that, he hit the floor running. After a few back and forth talks with the insurance company. Atty Weissman called me to pick up my check. Atty Weissman was kind and easy to talk t...o about my case. He explained everything to me in the simplest terms. David was always available by phone or email if I had any questions about the issue. Thank you, Atty David Weissman
