David Linville Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Seattle

David Linville Bio
I am an attorney at Linville Lawfirm, PLCC.  I specialize in construction law.  I work with my brother, father and other attorneys here.  We provide top notch legal representation to persons and companies involved in construction disputes, whether it be contractors, material suppliers, property owners, architects or engineers.  About half of my practice involves dispute resolution.  The other half involves dispute prevention.  This entails drafting and reviewing contracts, subcontracts, proposals, estimates, credit applications, lien waivers and other documents in the normal course of a construction project.  I’m a firm believer in the old maxim that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure when it comes to lawsuits.  Litigation is very expensive.  While you can’t eliminate the risk of litigation, you can minimize the risk by using the right contract documents for the right job, carefully choosing who you work with, and properly sending out your pre-lien notices.  I enjoy the practice of law. Not only does it pay the bills, but I get a lot of satisfaction in helping clients avoid and resolve disputes.. As far as my personal life goes, I was born and raised in Seattle.  I attended the University of Washington for my undergraduate work and my law degree. My wife Liz and I have an 18-month-old named Adam. If Adam becomes a lawyer some day, he’ll be the third generation lawyer in the family. My hobbies are playing soccer, piano, golf, learning languages and windsurfing.
