Worthless

David did nothing to further may case. and burned through my retainer in the first month. It pays to to read reviews. I fired him the third month into a divorce. Hiring this attorney is a big mistake.

Horrible

I think he forgets he works for clients. He is very unapproachable, and agressive with his clients. I’d expect that would have been good for any opposition, but according to his reputation, ‘tis not the case. If you want to spend $5000 on someone who has no interest in actually doing anything, and... gives legal advice that is incorrect, by all mean - hire him. Glad we had a B plan!

I do not feel this attorney is credible

I hired David Helmer to handle my divorce. He was charging me over $8,0000 a month and I had no evidence he did any work on my behalf. I fired him before the case was over and defended myself and resolved a very fair settlement. I do not feel he had any intention to help me, just make money. i wo...uld not recommend David to anyone, for anything.

Sub-par representation

David Helmer failed to make disclosures, including conflicts of interest, kept representing for six months AFTER he said he was withdrawing, including through a hearing he failed to advise me about.

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.
