About David

https://www.txdiminishedvalue.com/

Winning is the only thing that matters. I have handled cases all over the U.S. seeking the best venues for my clients, I can't claim that I have won every case, but I am happy to report I fought every case to the end sometimes fighting cases in two different countries to the highest courts in the land.
