This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent Personal Injury lawyer

In 2017, I was rear ended. This led me to have spinal fusion surgery a few months later. I had a pre-existing condition and my case was turned down by six attorneys. I saw Dave Foster and he was willing to take my case. Four months after my surgeon cleared me I received a significant settlement thank...s to Dave. I’d love to send a copy of my check to the six attorneys who turned me down! Dave is honest, appropriately aggressive, knowledgeable and fair. I would highly recommend him.

Lost my trial after 2 years waiting

I was referred to Mr Foster by Larry Sokol. I had a medical malpractice case that it was pretty straight forward to begin with and I was not asking for anything out of ordinary. I was hoping to get my medical bills paid and the time I took off from my work to get recover. Unfortunatly I lost the case... and to this date I can not believe it. I had to reach out to him every time to get an update about my case and honestly even his partner Larry sokol was supprise that they lost this case.
