Prior to joining the Maricopa County Community College District as Senior Associate General Counsel, I served clients in private practice and in the public sector, with a strong emphasis on employment and labor law as well as several years of experience in commercial and technology transactions.
In practicing with large and small law firms, an employer association, and as a lawyer in the public interest, I possess significant experience in employment and labor law as well as business, commercial and technology transactions. I perform and oversee sensitive workplace investigations and provide thorough fact-finding and legal advice to employers so that they can implement prompt action to resolve workplace claims and disputes. My representation of employers in employment litigation and in defense of agency proceedings involving workplace discrimination, harassment, and wage and hour claims has earned favorable outcomes for public and private sector clients across many industries. I conduct training and present legal updates for audiences numbering one to 300 attendees, comprising rank and file employees to C-level executives. My transactional experience has included drafting and closing complex commercial transactions -- business acquisitions, commercial real property purchases and sales, business loans, commercial loans, commercial leases, and a diverse array of employment-related agreements -- and providing business, commmercial and in particular employment and labor law advice.

David was consistantly available, responsive and fair during a recent time sensitive Office Lease transaction. Without his assistance we may not have met the Tenant's other critical deadlines for occupancy. A great pleasure to work with.
