This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Great attorney! Would highly recommend.

David was great to work with. He was professional, friendly and went out of his way to accommodate us. I would definitely use him again for any legal needs.

Posted by anonymous | February 25, 2009

Outstanding Attorney! Would gladly recommend and/or use again!

I referred David to assist a family member with a very complex tax issue. Without his expertise and timely response to our need, it is unlikely we would have had a favorable result. He was not only thorough in his explanations of what is the law and how we could apply it to our particular situation, ...but he constantly took time to ensure we completely understood what the next steps were. Additionally, he consistently set our expectations of the probable outcome correctly. He went above and beyond what we expected, and I would highly recommend David again. As a matter of fact, I referred him to two other clients who also had excellent results from his service. He would be an asset to any person or company in need of fantastic legal advice.”

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.
