This firm concentrated its practice on domestic relation matters, divorce, custody, support, estate planning, estate administration, probate, and real estate matters.

David has also developed and participates in a significant referral system for all matters of representation. To the extent that a client has a specific need, David has developed relationships with attorneys from this area and others in an effort to further assist the needs of any existing and/or new clients.
