property manager

David has helped me with evictions and settle many cases through agreements. But, the most important part is that he has taught me how to take care of a lot or problems myself.

Preliminary Review

Friday 12/09/2016. I was referred to Mr. Lawrence by Community Alliance for Tenants on 12/05. Mr. Lawrence picked up my call for a preliminary consultation today and immediately got into the task of reviewing my case and has promised to get back to me same day afternoon because of the close proximity... of trial date. Mr. Lawrence seemed impressive and I plan on hiring him for the task.

Outstanding service

What an amazing attorney! Mr Lawrence is the real deal folks! He took the time to listen to us, he was approachable, sincere, down to earth, he won our case for us and gave us excellent advice. I spoke with 4 other attorneys before I spoke to David none of them cared about our situation or acted li...ke they were interested in fighting for us. Forget about the rest because David Lawrence is the best!

Really, look no further!

David is an excellent attorney, and will definitely help you win your case, if it can be won. He helped our family out of a difficult situation around the holidays and I very highly recommend him.

Look no further ! You have found the best

Mr. Lawrence helped me about 3 years ago and I am so thrilled with the job he did. At a time when my life was going so wrong, David made some of those wrongs become rights again. He is hard working and knows his area of law inside and out. You will not be unhappy with his performance as long as yo...u remember that not all cases are cases but if they are, David will battle the wrong and make things right. Can't say enough positive words about this lawyer and I don't like lawyers. Michelle C

Landlord or tenant lawyer | Nov 06

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I feel like I am the luckiest lawyer in the world to not have had a case against David Lawrence. He is one of my go-to colleagues for his knowledge of landlord-tenant law. Just the other day I asked him whether I could use the fact of ownership from an FED case to preclude the issue of ownership in a quiet-title case (I represent landlord/owner in both cases). On the tip of his tongue he had the case that said “no”—Bunch v. Pearson (possession is the only issue in an FED). I wish there were a David Lawrence app!"

"Mr. Lawrence and I both work similar types of Landlord/Tenant cases. We've consulted on various legal issues together, and we have been opposing counsel on a number of cases, as well. I recommend his work, as he is very knowledgeable and an effective advocate for his clients."

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.
