Construction

David helped us with a construction issue. Our home was destroyed by a contractor and he kept us out of the courtroom and getting money through the insurance and contractor in litigation. He was professional, timely, and remembered every detail off the top of his head. We were very impressed and happ...y with the outcome.

Family Law/Custody

David is truly one of the best attorneys around Indiana. He was VERY attentive and determined when it came to our case. Personally, I had an emergency custody situation that needed attention quickly. He was excellent working with me and my son and definitely got the best outcome when it came to... our case. 100% recommend David and will use him in the future if needed.

Mr. Saferight saved a doomed property case I was involved in for over 8 years, without his representation I would have lost the case. He was able to organize the mess from other attorneys and quickly use the research to arrive at a much-needed solution for everyone involved. I recommend his services ...and will hire him again if I ever need an attorney in the future.

Great experience with an excellent attorney

David assisted me with a property purchase that hinged on gaining access to the property over a disputed easement. Property law involving an easement was not David’s specialty when the case began, but he thoroughly researched the issues involved and was soon an expert on the matter. David has a shar...p legal mind and developed a well thought out strategy to bring the case to a conclusion. The attorneys for the opposing parties eventually realized that they were outmatched and offered to settle the case in a way that was very much in our favor. I would highly recommend hiring David as your next attorney.
