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 a...ttorney, 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 h...ave to do. He is someone who goes that extra mile. Thank you, David

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.
