Outstanding Attorney

We were completely distraught and didn’t know what to expect before we reached out to Mr. David. We felt relieved and blessed after talking to Attorney David who patiently heard our case and calmly answered all our questions and concerns. He has deep expertise in his field and is very knowledgeable, ...trustworthy, and responsive. He was thorough as well as quick at his assessment and was extremely reassuring, positive, and pro-active. He went above and beyond and gave us a favorable resolution within a week and saved us from further trauma and fear. David Smith is an incredible attorney, and we couldn’t be more grateful for his services! We highly recommend him!

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.
