Highly recommend David and team

I had an over year long custody case that turned into a contested move away. It was stressful, complicated and long but David and team were the calm in a storm. David is reasonable, thoughtful and calm when communicating with you especially during stressful times but is firm and pushes in court in th...e right moments. It gave me peace of mind knowing I had them on my team through all of the stressful moments. I wouldn’t recommend anyone have to experience any of this but if you must then I highly recommend David and team.

Consult him before separation

If you find yourself contemplating separation, consult David before taking further action. I wished I retained him earlier. In my case David was able to quickly repair the damage done previously, with speedy and successful court action that allowed a significant increase of time with my child whi...ch is priceless. David is competent, reliable, responds quickly, knowledgeable in matters of family court (he’s a certified family law specialist), and bills accurately. He’s fair, professional, realistic, looks out for the best interest of the involved parties, and he’s exceptional in presenting his case during negotiations and in court.

Excellent Attorney

David has been excellent in handling my case. My case has quite some complication around the child custody while the opposing counsel is terrible in terms of the legal knowledge and experience which leads to a lot of false expectation and wasted time & resources. In my case, David is always on top of... everything and provides great insight and valuable advices. Extremely happy from working with him.

Excellent Divorce Lawyer

David Erb was extremely helpful with my difficult divorce. He was supportive, honest and refreshingly candid. He was extremely responsive via e-mail and phone. When things felt stuck and hopeless, he was able to maneuver the situation by dealing with opposing counsel in a professional and clear wa...y and successfully move things forward. An important part of my experience with David was having him really listen to what I needed, how I wanted things to be considered and guide the process based on clear goals. He is realistic, clearly grounded in law and experience and at the same time, human. I have already recommended him to a friend in need of a strong, focused, responsive and clever lawyer to help with his difficult custody issues. I will continue to recommend him. He does not waste time, is honest and accurate with billing and again, respectful of all considerations during my divorce. I really enjoyed working with him and will not hesitate to again.

Smart, thorough, connected and a pleasure to work with

David was extremely responsive and thorough helping me with my child custody case. He made smart, calculated recommendations on strategy but I always felt like he was respectful of my decisions and would fight for what I wanted. When I had concerns or was just stressed he was quick to respond and l...isten and he seemed genuinely concerned about my situation. There were so many nuances around strategy and jurisdiction that I would have made myself crazy trying to decipher and I was grateful for his breadth of knowledge of not only custody law, but more importantly on our local judges and court system. I also appreciate that he was quick - I never felt like he was eating up my time and money on unnecessary details. I can't recommend him enough.
