WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"David works very well with his litigators. There's no one you would want more to lead a bankruptcy litigation."

MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"My job is to be a trusted strategic advisor and commercial problem solver. I work to build consensus among stakeholders because consensual solutions usually create the greatest value. But I never rely on consensus alone. I always develop a credible Plan B so my clients negotiate from a position of strength."
