Past and Current Client

David’s firm was originally referred to me by my union. They told me if they were going to litigate my case his firm would be their choice. At that time I had never had the need to hire an attorney. I was looking for an employee’s lawyer who was honest, direct, and knowledgeable about employment ...law. I found David to be all of these things and more. It was very important for me to feel comfortable with whom I chose to represent me. Since I am not a lawyer I needed someone who could explain to me what the process was in terms that I could understand. This in turn would allow me to help David represent me. He did an excellent job presenting my case. David Duchrow is an outstanding attorney with compassion, ethics, and an excellent knowledge base. I would highly recommend without hesitation David Duchrow and his firm. We could truly use more lawyers like David, it would make the world a better place.

"David Duchrow is a top-notch employee rights lawyer. He has an excellent reputation in the community and does stellar work -- both in trial and appellate courts. When it comes to California public sector employment cases, he's the best. There's simply no one on the employee side who knows the nuances and intricacies of California public sector employment law better than does David."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"David Duchrow and I have co-counseled together on five cases: disability discrimination and failure to accommodate; age discrimination; national origin discrimination; and two wage and hour class actions. He is remarkably knowledgeable in the law, civil trials and evidence, and appeals. David is responsible, professional and a pleasure to work with. His integrity is above reproach, and his dedication to his clients is inspiring."
