Professional Sevice

David Dunham was successful in getting our return of invested capital from an LLC that had gone opaque and would not communicate with us. We were very pleased with Dunham LLP's professional service, communication, and reasonable billing.

Does An Incredible Job

My software company has used David Dunham as an attorney on several contract and licensing disputes over the years. Every time he takes care of us with great service, creative advice and strategic thinking. Whether it is a noncompete or intellectual property issue, we will always turn to him for g...uidance and representation. He is extremely responsive and always puts in the time to really dig in and understand the issue and provide us with a clear understanding of our options and works to guide us to the best decision. Mr. Dunham’s work for us has been a huge asset for us, one that we take into every legal dispute that we have.

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.
