Sound Advice From David Visser

Over the past couple of years I've found the professional legal services of David Visser to be nothing less than excellent. I've hired Visser for a menagerie of cases and projects that surround my family's investments and business ventures. Visser is sharp minded, resourceful and able to create sol...utions for even the most dynamic situations. I've sought Visser's council on several subjects from residential and commercial leases to small business planning and contracts. Visser's counsel is a great resource to me and he has proven to be an effective mediator on several occasions. I've found Visser to be consistently thoughtful and he always works with tremendous integrity while protecting your best interests. I recall a time when my wife and I hired Visser to assist with a Washington State rental property where the tenant was difficult to work with and neglecting the property. This was a stressful and somewhat scary situation for my family but Visser did a great job of walking us through our options and providing information that would help us resolve the issues with the tenant under amicable and timely terms. Although Visser made it look easy, we couldn't have done it without him, thank you! Visser's graceful tact and foresight has proven to be of great value on numerous occasions. I look forward to working with Visser in the future and intend to hire him again for estate planning and business advice.

"David is MY lawyer. I defend crimes such as DUI. I fight for people injured in a car accident or at work. What I don't do, is anything regarding real estate or wills or any of that boring, but important stuff. For that stuff, I hire a lawyer myself and that lawyer is David."
