David practice primary concerns wills, trusts, and estates (including probate and trust administration), with a smaller portion of his practice dedicated to real estate transactions. David enjoys developing relationships with his clients and helping clients achieve their goals to best protect themselves, their family, and their intentions.
Prior to starting Faber Feinson PLLC, David worked with Landesa on international land tenure issues, Perkins Coie on a major merger and acquisitions case, and the Yakama Nation Office of Legal Counsel as an associate attorney.
David and his wife Laura grew up in Port Townsend. They returned to their hometown in February 2014 after spending most of the last decade in other communities around the Puget Sound. David and Laura both attended the Evergreen State College, after which David received his J.D. from Seattle University School of Law, and his LL.M. from the University of Washington School of Law. David now lives a short walking distance from his office, and you'll probably see him wandering around uptown with his dog Leila on any given afternoon.

Very positive experience
My husband and I hired David to draft our estate plan soon after we moved to Washington in the spring of 2020. He answered all of our questions, responded to all emails promptly the entire process was quite easy. This happened during Covid shut down and he made arrangements for us to sign our docume...

Poor
This attorney said he could have my case quickly resolved with a summery judgment. After spending my retainer he changed his mind, saying it may not work. At that point he had no plan so he did nothing except charging me for taking calls. At some point the plaintiff gave up on the suit and my atto...
I am sorry that Scott feels this way. When I first met with Scott, I informed him that I thought he had a reasonably strong case and that it might be possible that we could win on summary judgment early in the process. While further investigating the case, a material issue of fact presented itself which would have made a summary judgment motion unlikely to prevail. I informed Scott of the weakness in our case and offered to pursue a more rigorous defense, but outside of sending interrogatories and requests for admission, he insisted that he wanted to leave the ball in the plaintiff's proverbial court. Accordingly, I took a defensive position, assisted the client in responding to discovery requests from the plaintiff, and otherwise stuck to a holding pattern, prepared to respond if the plaintiff ever decided to move their case forward. Ultimately, the defense I prepared for my client was successful at discouraging the plaintiff from attempting to move forward with the case, and we ended with the result my client said he wanted at the beginning: the plaintiff was frustrated and unable to successfully prosecute his case. Eventually, the plaintiff decided to voluntarily withdraw their claims under CR 41(B)(2), which was the plaintiff's prerogative. I informed Scott of the plaintiff's intention, attempted to explain--both by email and phone--precisely what options remained after a CR 41(B)(2) voluntary dismissal had been filed: filing for attorney fees and initiating a new suit against the neighbor. When I asked the client whether he wanted to seek payment of his attorney fees--which remains a viable option after a CR 41(B)(2) dismissal--he stated he "doesn't want money" and that he wanted to force his neighbor to apologize. I informed him that I was unable to force the neighbor to do so. I also informed Scott that I would be unable to represent him on further suit against the neighbor and instead offered to refer Scott to other attorneys who work on the Olympic Peninsula. That was where this matter ended. I am honestly surprised Scott is this upset. I followed my client's directions, gave him careful advice throughout, and ultimately we were successful in defending the case.

Estate planning
Mr. Faber was kind, thorough and knowledgeable. He took the time to fully answer any question my husband and I had about our estate plan. We needed some changes made a few months after the finalization of the original documents, and Mr. Faber was happy to make all the changes we needed quickly and ...

Estate excellence.
I have a hard time believing the negative reviews on David. He has helped us through a very difficult time in our lives.
