Mr. David Roth’s professionalism is unmatched.

From the beginning to the end of my case, he truly took his time and explained in detail, every aspect of my accident. Providing me with amazing and trust worthy health care professionals, that helped me to get back on my feet after my car accident in December of 2017. He was always making time for... me to answer any questions I had in timely manner. He always listened to my concerns after the accident and made sure I had the right care. David is very intelligent and truly knowledgeable about personal injury cases. He has a wonderful, professional, compassionate and friendly office team that always knew my name. David was able to exceed my settlement expectations by far. I most definitely recommend David Roth to my friends and family and anyone who reads this review, you will not lose.

David Roth-A Great Attorney

David Roth did an excellent job of representing me in a suit involving a car accident. He far exceeded my expectations in this matter. He always got back to me within a very timely manner when I called his office, and remained very polite and understanding while answering my many questions. He kept m...e informed throughout the handling of my case, which greatly impressed me as I had never been in an accident previously and was confused about the procedure. I was very satisfied with the results of having my medical bills taken care of and the monetary settlement was more than satisfactory. I would recommend David Roth to anyone seeking a great attorney. He will work as hard for you as he did for me, and if the occasion ever arises again I would not hesitate to call him.

Recommendation: David Roth

David was referred to me by another attorney and it worked out great. I had a trip and fall case where I fractured my shoulder and had to deal with a frozen shoulder for 18 months. David was on the ball as well as his staff. They were friendly and I always felt like an equal when dealing with David, ...unlike some attorneys in my search. I had a decent and fairly quick outcome and I would definitely recommend David to anyone with a personal injury claim. Thanks again David and Staff!

The people whom I have referred to David on these injury matters have been consistently pleased with his efforts. He stays on top of these matters and communicates very well with the people all the way through. Some lawyers do not seem to understand the basic need to keep the clients informed. David understands the importance of communicating with clients, and he is very good at it."

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.
