David Sohn is a 5-Star Lawyer

David Sohn has the gift of being able to distill a complex legal document into precise, easy to understand language for his clients. He has excellent communication skills and follow-through with client requests. Mr. Sohn is extremely well-organized, ethical, and highly professional. Mr. Sohn took c...are of my legal needs in a timely manner. His approachable personality made him easy to work with. My funds for his legal services were limited, David understood my needs and showed compassion and understanding by negotiating a fair and equitable fee for his services. I highly recommend David!

I had an excellent experience working with David on reviewing and finalizing my employment agreement. He was incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and patient in answering all my questions/concerns. His professionalism and attention to detail made the entire process smooth. I truly appreciated how resp...onsive and supportive he was. I highly recommend David to anyone seeking clear, reliable, and expert legal guidance!

Knowledgeable, helpful, and reassuring!

David was recommended to me for help with leaving a very toxic, abusive workplace. David was extremely responsive, helpful, and gave it to me straight. He went out of his way to be available and generous with his help before I even hired him - in fact, he was so helpful that I ended up needing less ...support than I thought I would. His perspective was informative and reassuring, and made me feel confident about working with him in the future. I've already recommended him to other people in similar situations!

Fantastic experience with David Sohn

Highly recommend David Sohn! From the very beginning, he was extremely responsive and super easy to talk to - I received a call directly from him soon after reaching out to his office, which I was finding is rare these days. Dealing with a stressful issue, Mr. Sohn not only listened carefully, but al...so gave thoughtful guidance - which helped me really take smart next steps. Not only was I impressed with the time he took to talk with me, but what hooked me the most was a follow-up reach-out he made to check on how things were going. That level of care, interest and professionalism is hard to find. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney who is both knowledgeable and genuinely invested in their clients.

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.
