Awesome guy and attorney!

Mr. Kirshenbaum helped me once as a public defender. True colors shine through when you're not the one paying your attorney. I couldn't have been more pleased with my experience, and I had hired him again when I needed help. Professional, knowledgeable, and straight-forward. Thank you David!

Knowledgable, up front attorney

I hired David to assist me with 8 year old DUIs. He was very up front and set my expectation early. The process once hiring David became very fluid and he did better than anticipated in assisting me. I have since recommended him to several people and their feedback was inline with my own.

Honest, Ethical and Experienced

I've used David several times over the last fourteen years and have found him to be an excellent attorney. His knowledge of the dui laws in washington are immense and he actually does what he says.

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.
