I am passionate about standing up for those who have been harmed or even killed from needless medical malpractice. I exclusively represent patients and their families in medical malpractice, brain injury, wrongful death and serious personal injury cases.. I bring some unique experiences to my law practice. I started my educational career in medicine and then became a hospital administrator. After law school, I worked for a large prestigious defense firm, defending doctors and hospitals.. I believe that one of the major ways we see improvements in medicine is through the legal system. Time after time, clients tell me that they do not want the same medical malpractice to happen to someone else. I work hard every day to make hospitals and medicine safer for everyone.

My mission is to render professional legal services of the highest quality to physicians, dentists, lawyers and other professionals at reasonable cost.

Thanks for visiting my office profile.. I represent injured people.  That's all I do, and all I've done since 1983.  In that time, I've had the honor to speak for well over 1,000 victims of others' negligence, mainly from King, Pierce and Snohomish counties, but from all over Western Washington, and from Eastern Washington as well.  I've also appeared in the courts of Oregon, Idaho and California.. While most injury cases settle out of court,  I've tried over one hundred cases to conclusion, mainly in Seattle, Tacoma and Everett, but also in Spokane, Yakima, Tri-Cities, and San Diego.. Nobody wants a "good" injury claim;  that means you've suffered a bad injury.   On the other hand, if you are seriously hurt, you need experienced, competent representation.. I'm honored to have earned an "AV"--"preeminent"--rating from Martindale-Hubbel each year since 1999.  Martindale is an anonymous, random peer review/rating organization, and the "AV" rating means that a the lawyers that I work with and against think highly of my work.. I'm proud to say that I am willing to handle medical negligence cases, on behalf of people whose health care providers failed them.  These are very difficult, time consuming and risky cases, and many plaintiffs' attorneys won't touch them.    We are willing to investigate such cases, and if there's solid proof of negligence, we'll take them on.. Like most plaintiff's laywers, we also handle all other injury claims, incuding automobile accidents, "slip and fall" accidents, construction site injuries, etc.   Our clients consistently compliment my excellent staff for the genuine care and attention they give to the cases we handle.. We'll be glad to talk to you about your case.. Best wishes and good luck.. Dave

I do not consider myself a typical “lawyer” that you might hear jokes told about. My main career objective is not to make every dollar I can. Rather, I am driven by the purpose of being an advocate for those I represent. In the majority of cases that I see, whether it be an individual who has been seriously injured, or someone who has lost a loved one, my client has come to me to solve a problem that will affect the rest of his or her life. I am honored and humbled by that responsibility, and I do not take it lightly. I strongly believe that the profession of lawyer should be treated as a noble endeavor, with the cornerstone principles being compassion for your client and zealous advocacy on their behalf. A lawyer should do what is best for their client in every situation. Many times that involves not only going to court, filing law suits, or arguing before a jury, but it also involves providing a sympathetic ear, being a true counselor, and providing sound advice about life in general.In short, my goal is to serve my clients as an advocate in every sense of the word. I want to truly be in their corner, and fight their fight with them. The most important things in my life are my faith in God and my family. I truly believe that God has a hand in my life, and I am grateful for that fact every day. I am married to the most beautiful woman I know, Kelly. Our children, Noah, Grace, Avery, and Jack are the joy of my life, and I do everything in my professional life with an eye toward making my family proud to say that “Daddy is a lawyer.”

I've been in practice for 30 years.  I've handled a multitude of cases.  I'm very involved in the community and know that I do a good job.
