Excellent attorney!

I've worked with David King on two separate matters, one to set up my corporation 5 years ago and the other to review some important legal documents before final signing 2 years ago. I felt he gave my relatively small jobs the consideration and attention he would have given a much larger client, and... he was always responsive and easy to get hold of for all of my questions. I've already recommended David to several of my friends and associates, and they have all had the same positive experiences and high regard for his skills and ethics that I have.

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.
