Trustworthy

David changed my mind about lawyers. I was against hiring a lawyer in my Workman's Compensation case, but it became complicated and I needed some help. He was recommended to me. As soon as I met him I knew he would help me. He really listened to what I had to say. I feel he looked out for me and alwa...ys had my best interest. He kept me up to date on the status of everything. If I needed to call him and talk to him about it something he was always available. He worked around the clock because he would return my calls after hours and on weekends if I asked him to. Whenever we had to meet in person he was always flexible around my schedule. He worked hard to get my case settled and he got it settled fast. Even nine months after the case was settled he followed up on a few things that helped me out even more. I would recommend him to my family and friends.

A notch above the rest!

I was referred to David by a friend, who had retained his services and was pleased with the results. At that time, I had already sat down and spoken to two different Worker's Compensation attorneys in the San Francisco Bay Area, and while both of them had seemed quite capable, I somehow walked away ...from those meetings feeling unsure of myself. I suffered a work injury that was about to change the landscape of my professional life and I needed a lawyer who could not only practice law but could also relate in a human way, and bridge my need for representation with empathy for the challenges I experienced as an injured worker. In the end, I could've not have been happier with my choice to hire David Kizer. He was reassuring throughout the entire process and filled me in every step of the way. Together, we achieved a fair and favorable settlement, and quite quickly, which allowed me to move on from a tough situation and get to rebuilding my life. I recommend David Kizer to anyone in need of help with a Worker's Compensation case!

A great attorney who will fight for you!

I had the pleasure of hiring David Kizer for my WC case. He made the process as smooth as possible despite the natural stress of dealing with the hurdles that come with a case. He remained calm and explained things along the way to help keep me as calm as possible as well as fighting hard for me. His... lengthy experience alone was reassuring throughout the entire process. His clear explanation of the process also helped a great deal to know that I had someone who cared about my case. He was very efficient in timely communicating with me from beginning to end. If I can recommend an attorney, I wouldn't hesitate to name David without hesitation to anyone in search of a great attorney.
