Dave Albo has been in court approximately three days a week for over 32 years.  So he would be best described as a trial attorney.  People hire Dave to use his nearly three decades of experience in Court and over two decades of experience writing the laws to represent them in Court, protect their rights, and serve as their advocate..

Many of these cases actually went to trial, thus Dave Albo gained – not in a class but rather in an actual court room during a trial – hands on real world trial skills, which are difficult to match.. 5.  Sought by the national media to comment on the law.  Dave Albo has been featured hundreds times in the national media – such as FOX News, MSNBC, all three local network news shows (NBC, CBS, ABC and Fox), Today Show, Dateline, CNN, Washington Post and the Washington Times, to name a few..
