Qualified and efficient
I paid Mr. Vogel on an hourly basis. He was super efficient with his use of time, careful not to charge for unnecessary things and won my case with a breeze!

Attorney Extrodinar
David Vogel is an excellent attorney and honestly probably a better person! He helped me immensely in the case involving and over the top district attorney. David was always fully prepared for court even though they made it very challenging for us . Every court appearance had a curveball attached to it. David persevered through all the endless legal challenges they threw at us! David will fight for what is just on your behalf. Thanks again David, truly an attorney for the people!!

Criminal and civil
Mr. Vogel helped in both a ruminate and civil Matter. He handled both cases with care and helped get me the best possible outcome that kept damages at a minimum. I would highly recommend him for your potential needs.

David S. Vogel
Me. Vogel handled my personal injury lawsuit in a thorough, professional manner. He achieved a favorable result, far greater than initially offered by the defendant. Mr. Vogel was aggressive, yet able to maintain professional and productive communications with the other side. In my search for an attorney, he took a much more personal interest than others I interviewed. I suggest viewing his short YouTube video . What you see here is truly what you get- it worked for me.

Fair, Honest, Hardworking, and Available to his Client
David represented us in litigation against a neighbor. His fee was more than fair, he was easy to contact when we had questions and we were very satisfied with the outcome. When the litigation was over, he even helped mediate an area of concern with the neighbor and ourselves, something he didn't have to do. He is someone who goes that extra mile. Thank you, David

Very Pleased with David Vogel's representation
I was in need of legal representation a few months ago and a friend recommended Mr. David Vogel. I contacted Mr. Vogel and was expeditiously given an appointment to meet with him to discuss my issue. After I presented my issue to Mr. Vogel he indicated that he thought he could be of help. We agreed upon a fair fee for his representation and over the course of the next 4 months he proceeded to take actions which resulted in a resolution of my issue which was quite satisfactory to me. In addition to the satisfactory resolution of my issue I was most pleased with Mr. Vogel’s responsiveness. I was able to reach him by phone when I needed to speak with him, and by email when I just needed to impart information. If he was not immediately available he would get back to me within a day. That was most pleasing as I had a previous experience with an attorney who was almost unreachable by either phone or email, even though he had a secretary to take and pass on messages. That individual would take weeks or months to get back to me, if at all. The contrast of Mr. Vogel’s responsiveness to that other attorney was like night and day. Should I find myself in need of representation in the future I would indeed seek out Mr. David Vogel and would recommend others do the same.

Excellent Service
We had the neighbors tree fall on our garage and needed legal help when our neighbors insurance refused to pay for the damages. We were recommended David through our Arborist. To sum it all up, David was great to work with and our case is CLOSED! We received everything needed to re build. Thanks David!

Saved my sons life
Words cannot describe how happy I am that David Vogel was the attorney in my sons case. With his experience dedication and expertise he saved my son from spending many years in adult prison to his case being handle in the juvenile system where programs and rehabilitation is the main focus. He accomplished this by exposing that the D.A. witness testimony was not truthful. If your in legal trouble and need a Lawyer David Vogel is the best.

Tenacious D!
David was instrumental in negotiating a settlement for me. David made himself available throughout the process and his fee was very reasonable in my case. Highly recommend!

David Vogel is an attorney that can win the tough cases.
David was a pleasure to work with. He handle my case when other attorneys refused to take it on. He took the facts of the case and sought out experts to prove the case. He then prepared the lawsuit, deposed the defendant. He exposed the defendant in his questioning at the deposition. He kept me well informed throughout the whole process. We went to arbitration and negotiated a settlement that was far more than I thought possible. I am so glad that I had David as my attorney, If you need an attorney I strongly recommend David. You will be well represented.

I found a good attorney
I have had the pleasure of employing David to represent me in a hearing that required a thorough understanding of a complicated issue. David performed admirably. He writes eloquently and represented me very well at the hearing. I have found and recommend a good attorney to you.

David Saved the Day!
David took my personal injury case after several other lawyers had determined it was too difficult to fight a big insurance company and the case was too complex. He managed to get a very reasonable settlement. Without his help I would likely have received nothing. I highly recommend David Vogel. He's not afraid to tackle difficult cases.

A Job Well Done
After several unsuccessful attempts at finding an attorney to take my case (including one attorney who stated my case didn't have the "wow" factor), I was almost to the point of giving up. I then had the fortune of meeting Mr. Vogel. From our first conversation over the phone to our eventual meeting a few days later, I knew I had found the right attorney to represent me. David was extremely down to earth and easy to talk with. He expressed a real sincere interest in me and the facts of my case, and made the whole legal process easy to understand and a lot less overwhelming. I was put at ease from the start. The case went on for nearly three years and eventually settled on the eve of trial. During this time there were many twists and turns, and highs and lows. One thing however remained constant, David's perseverance and unwavering determination to leave no stone unturned. He kept me consistently informed on all matters, upbeat when needed and was always just a phone call away. It is with all certainty that I state, that if were not for the attributes of David S. Vogel the successful outcome of this case would not have been possible.

Decent attorney who cared about my case
David represented me in a civil matter - personal injury case - and he applied himself 100% to obtaining a settlement that was in my best interests. He takes a personal role in his cases but that gets in the way sometimes. Since he takes your call himself, sometimes you can be in the middle of a conversation and he gets disrupted. This is a minor issue however. If he feels that your case is worth pursuing he definitely gives all he has. Nicole, his Paralegal, is awesome and always follows through.
