David Wallace Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Nyack

David Wallace Bio
David is a high-powered trial advocate who for years has consistently been nationally ranked by clients and peers among the best in the business. He guides individuals and companies clear of legal trouble, leads them to safer courses of action, helps reduce the likelihood of litigation, positions them to tell a better story when it does arise, and gets them out of legal trouble quickly.. One of the things that most sets David apart as a trial lawyer is his role in some of the most celebrated and consequential product liability cases ever heard in the American legal system, involving some of the nation's largest corporations, some of the world's most-recognized brands, and "bet the company" stakes.. David's courtroom work has brought honors and recognition from peers, clients, and others.  The Legal 500 named him "a national star" in products liability litigation; Benchmark Litigation describes him as "high caliber ... with a likeability factor that is invaluable in front of a jury"; Newsday headlined his "searing" cross-examination of a key medical witnesses in the trial of a Long Island cancer case.  And the Australian Financial Times told that David's pre-trial examination of a whistleblower in a massive federal RICO action caused the witness to "storm out of the room," and his lawyer "extreme embarassment.". With roots in an historic New England seaport, David began his litigation career at Chadbourne & Parke, before joining Herbert Smith Freehills.  A few years ago, he left "big law" to begin his own practice.
