Dave represented me in my divorce. He was completely prepared and professional. He reviewed the entire situation and was level headed and end-results oriented. He kept me focused and helped me through an incredibly difficult time in my life. He helped me succeed in coming out of a 17 year marriage with everything I fought for (including physical custody of my three children). As a father, this was imperative. I am truly grateful and thankful for his hard work.
David handled my divorce. He did not walk me through all of my options and did not explain things very clearly. It seemed that he used up time on things that were not fruitful. He did not always get back to me in a timely fashion. I would not recommend him for divorce proceedings.

The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should be be based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies technical and professional licenses and memberships in scientific technical and professional associations and societies of law or field of practice does not mean that a lawyer is a specialist or expert in a field of law nor does it mean that such lawyer is necessarily more expert or competent than any other lawyer. All potential clients are urged to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered.
