Strengths

Provided by Chambers

"David is extremely knowledgeable and does not hesitate to give a forthright, straightforward response. He also has the very positive attribute of being solution-oriented and strives to work with the client to achieve common goals (where possible) instead of simply reciting what the rule or law says."
