David is an experienced and determined lawyer.  He works hard to  provide his clients with an informed understanding of their legal rights and their practical implications. As an advocate, he zealously asserts his client’s position under the rules of the adversary system.  Over 20 years, David acquired considerable trial experience and can effectively litigate a case before judge or jury, should the circumstances so demand. However, he understands most clients want to avoid a trial due to the associated risk, cost, and stress. Therefore, as a negotiator, David makes all reasonable efforts, maintaining the professional requirement of honest dealing, to obtain a settlement that is advantageous and fair.  Finally, as an evaluator, David examines his client’s claims and provides honest and candid advice concerning the merits of the case. Independent judgment is an essential element of a lawyer’s relationship with a client.
