Posted by Michael | May 24, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Contracts & Agreements

David is a wizard when it comes to contracts and business set-up.

I run several businesses and need a range of legal services on a regular basis. I don't have a lot of time, and need results quick, and David always delivers. I have tasked David with everything from structuring and organizing businesses to developing comprehensive sets of necessary contracts and leg...al documents (such as non-competes, NDAs, employment contracts), all of which tailored to the specific demands of my businesses. David has always knocked it out of the park and exceeded my expectations with extremely fast turnaround times. Maybe most importantly, David is pleasant to work with and always communicates effectively. I can email, call, or text him and get an update when I need it, and that's vitally important to me. Five out of five stars -- highly recommend.

Business matters

Mr. Uffens has done a great job with any business matters I have referred to him including setting up LLC's, reviewing employment agreements and other contracts.

Posted by Barry | July 08, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Contracts & Agreements

non-solicitation agreement

David provided excellent and timely advice regarding a non-solicitation agreement requested by my new employer. David's suggestions enabled me to negotiate amendments that made the agreement more balanced and protected my own business assets.

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.
