Professional Excellence

I hired David Penoyer to represent me on three different occasions after I sustained injuries from accidents, two vehicular and one non-vehicular. On all three occasions, David sought fair and adequate compensation for me. He listened closely to my issues and concerns, expertly advised me on courses ...of action, and negotiated appropriate settlements for me. Through face-to-face meetings and phone conversations, David patiently answered all my questions over the course of the settlements and explained all the legalese. He is intelligent, experienced, thoughtful, measured, caring, assertive when necessary, and completely trustworthy. I highly recommend him.

Absolutely the best attorney I have ever worked with!

Dave has just been wonderful. Sympathetic when he needed to be and extremely professional. He patiently answered all my questions and kept me informed of the status of my case throughout. If I left a message or email he was able to respond within hours! I have never felt in such good hands. He ...resolved my case even better than I ever could have imagined with such thoroughness that I feel grateful every day. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who might need his services in any way at any time. Thank you Dave.

Attorney who cares about his clients and it shows!

Dave, is by far one of the best! I wouldn't recommend anyone else. He is very motivated and passionate about his work. Dave encourages you every step of the way and is very knowledgeable and tactical while he's been working on my claim. I feel comfortable when discussing my I Options and always have... great advice from all aspects.

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.
