This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Abusive

In 2015 I hired this law firm for a personal injury case because I worked with his wife. They seemed to think we were making up the extent of our medical issues and gaslit everything we experienced, but my husband ended up needing multiple spine surgeries costing millions- it was a truly life alterin...g time for us to navigate as young adults. The last straw was Dave Ganderton left me a voicemail absolutely SCREAMING at me for not immediately returning his call during a hospital stay. We switched attorneys, I explained why, never even an acknowledgement. We were a family friend of his- I can’t imagine how they would treat the general public. They made sure to pay themselves about $6000 before we ever got a dime paid out on our claim. This man epitomizes why attorneys have a bad reputation. He is inappropriate and abusive.

Honest and Extremely Helpful

I went to Dave with an issue regarding damage to my home from a piano mover. Trust me when I say I was really angry and wanted a lawsuit against the company for maximum damages. Dave looked at all of the data and evidence I had and the estimated damage to my home and recommended that I just take th...e case up with my homeowners insurance rather than hiring him to take to court. It ended up working out really well and he helped bring me back to reality when I was just seeing red. I would definitely recommend Dave to represent you if you need an attorney to retrieve damages for you because he is really up front and wants to help. Thanks Dave!

Reliable, Experienced, and Amazing Service

We hired David and his team to help us with a few contracting cases. We are in real estate and had major issues with contractors that resulted in significant damages. He knew exactly how to approach the situation to make sure we were protected and acted quickly to submit claims. He has taken a great ...deal of stress off our shoulders and has now helped many of my clients as well. I’m so thankful we have him as a resource. I hope I never have to use him again, but if I did, he would be my first call! I really cannot recommend him enough!

Quick, Solution Oriented and Easy to Communicate with

In a time of panic and not knowing what to do, Mr. Ganderton was quick in getting back with me and I immediately felt better after speaking with him. I found him to be very knowledgeable and quick in resolution with my situation. Very happy and would use him again!

Criminal defense and consulting

Without Mr. Ganderton and his practice, I would of ended up in jail and with a record that would of been impossible to obtain a decent job. He was able to get my charges dropped and most importantly an adjudication. I was originally charged with a DUI and he was able to drop it down to a reckless dri...ving. I was arrested again while on probation and obviously nervous as ever. Not only was he able to get that charge dismissed, he assured me that everything would work out and even though I made this mistake, it wouldn’t haunt me down the road. If you are thinking of hiring an attorney or even just a consultation, you’ve found the right practice. All those questions and worries you have will be suppressed after hiring his practice. If you’ve made a mistake like I have and you’re scared of what may happen, Mr. Ganderton is the ultimate safety net! Hire him now!

"Dave is a passionate advocate for his clients. He takes the time to truly get to know you and he makes a very foreign process digestible for his clients. He's a staunch advocate for you and consistently gets settlements north of what many of the larger firms will even attempt to fight for. For those cases that don't settle, Dave is a fierce litigator that is very competent in trial technique. It is without reservation that I endorse Dave in the complex legal area of Personal Injury."
