Exceptional Legal Services

David Grey is everything I could possibly ask for in an attorney; Whip smart, aggressive on my behalf and unwilling to accept anything short of victory... He is also kind, compassionate and patient. I have had the privilege of working with some of the finest attorneys practicing law - and David G...rey is among the very best. Hiring David Grey is one of the smartest decision I've ever made.

Genuine and Professional

I've known David a few years but it wasn't until a recent, unexpected death in the family that left my wife and I in unchartered waters with regards to the handling and legal ramifications of carrying out the duties as executor of a family trust. While I've met other attorneys in the desert, I felt t...he most comfortable approaching David with our situation. I've come to know David as an honest, genuine and understanding man of character. Through our conversations and David's explanation of the law, we were left with a sense of peace and confidence regarding the way in which to handle our situation. So whatever legal situation you're facing, I'd recommend giving David a call to analyze your situation and help formulate a game plan to achieve the best possible outcome. Many thanks, David.

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.
