Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I highly endorse this lawyer's work. I have known David for many years through our membership in a number of national estate planning organizations. David is one of the most intellectually gifted attorneys I know. Not only is he technically brilliant, however, he also combines his intellectual gifts with compassion for his clients, an innate understanding of human nature, and a true passion for his craft. I have oftened asked David for his counsel, which he has shared willingly, and we have collaborated on a number of issues and cases. David is a top tier, national-level estate planner, comfortable with the most sophisticated of clients and most complex estate, tax, charitable and business issues. I cannot recommend him highly enough."

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.
