David Scott Secrest

David Secrest is an outstanding attorney and successfully settled my wrongful termination case for an amount that allowed me to permanently retire. I have been an attorney for 35 years and am overly selective when choosing another attorney to represent me. David is brilliant, a gifted writer a...nd an expert on employment law. David’s confident demeanor and ability to provide clear and concise explanations makes him an amazing advocate. After a recommendation from my best friend, I came to David frantic and feeling beat up from a nasty ex boss who fabricated crazy excuses to justify treating me poorly. David won my case because he skillfully crafted arguments that nobody could oppose. My only true disappointment was no longer being able to work with David after my case was resolved. It truly was a once in a lifetime experience to collaborate with this talented litigator.

5.0 star rating 11/9/15 Like David who slew Goliath, Dave Secrest entered the battlefield created by my wrong termination and faced the corporate giant responsible for this atrocity. With unlimited money to finance one of the most successful legal teams in the Bay Area, the Archdiocese presented a d...efense in which David skillfully found its vulnerable areas. Using his depth of lawful knowledge, his focused and strategic attack, and his unwavering confidence in the innocence of his client, Dave slew the giant. It was a victory overflowing with satisfaction, and the termination was recognized for what it was, wrongful! My heart is still filled with gratitude for this gifted and professional lawyer.

David is such a knowledgeable and dynamic attorney to work with, it was a honor that he would pick up my case and be my advocate. I had no prior law background or involvement in a lawsuit prior to contacting David. My case involved wrongful termination from my previous employer. From the start he ...explained everything clearly and provided direction and options throughout each step. He thoroughly reviewed every part of my case and critically examined every angle that may be challenged by the opposing party. I always felt like we were several steps ahead of the defense, and at the end I learned that it was indeed the true, the opposing party played a lot of catch up because David was simply that good! He cites previous relevant cases in remarkable detail that he even had to remind our mediator of the case he had in mind to reference. The result achieved was such a positive outcome beyond what I was expecting! Anyone who has been wrongfully terminated would know that it naturally diminishes your self-worth, and often the unlawful termination is difficult to prove. Prior to speaking with David, I interviewed a couple other attorneys whom were easily intimidated and discouraged by the uncertainties of my case. However David's approach was fierce, he identified the areas that seemed weak and examined the defense's possible approach. His confidence is a reflection of his knowledge in the field. In speaking with David it was obvious that he was the best for the job, and I'm so thankful that he was willing to take me on!
