The best ever...

Despite the fact that I knew David had other clients, he always made me feel as though I was his only one. He is extremely knowledgeable and educates his clients about bankruptcy, it's consequences and ramifications etc, so that you are completely comfortable with your decision to file. He does all... this in the most non-judgemental manner. Throughout the course of the bankruptcy proceedings, and beyond, David is extremely responsive and always makes himself available, either by phone or email, to answer any and all questions. He clearly enjoys his work assisting his clients. I was truly fortunate to find such an honest, caring and trustworthy attorney who always made me feel a part of the process. There were no surprises along the way because David advised me, in advance, regarding every step of the bankruptcy. It is my pleasure to recommend David Giller to anyone with financial difficulties for his counsel and advise. He takes what can be an overwhelming and terrifying time and makes it a partnership to financial freedom.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy lawyer | Mar 22

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"David is an attorney who consistently takes every opportunity to increase his level of understanding of the field of bankruptcy law. He doesn't simply take in information; rather, he assimilates that information into the knowledge that's needed to transform "book smarts" into positive action for his clients. David is truly an asset to the bar, and consumers are lucky to have him working on their behalf."

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.
