David Dickieson has over 30 years of litigation experience.. Mr. Dickieson came to Schertler & Onorato, LLP in 2007 after spending 17 years heading up the Washington litigation team of a national law firm that grew to over 500 lawyers during Mr. Dickieson’s tenure. In that role, Mr. Dickieson has been on the front line of numerous tax and commercial litigation matters across the United States.. Notably, Mr. Dickieson represented the UBS whistleblower in a complex whistleblower campaign before the IRS, the Department of Justice Tax Division, the SEC and the Senate Subcommittee on Investigations, resulting in a $104 million whistleblower reward and a restructuring of the world's cross-border banking system.. The foundation for Mr. Dickieson’s trial work was strengthened by his tenure at the United States Department of Justice Tax Division from 1984 to 1989. In 1988, Mr. Dickieson was the senior attorney assigned to the largest civil tax fraud case up to that time – In re Conti-Commodity Corp. ––involving billions of dollars of phantom commodity trades intended to generate tax losses for commodities speculators. Mr. Dickieson’s successful handling of that tax case led to an offer from a premier national tax law firm in 1989.. Mr. Dickieson’s private litigation practice has spanned virtually all forms of trial work. In 1990, Mr. Dickieson won a record jury verdict of $7.3 million in a case of optometric malpractice. He has represented clients in Bankruptcy Court, Tax Court, state courts, and federal courts. Mr. Dickieson also has substantial experience in alternative dispute resolution through mediation or arbitration procedures where clients can typically get a quicker, less expensive resolution of civil disputes in a private, confidential setting with no publicity or published decision.. Mr. Dickieson has taught continuing legal education courses in the area of legal ethics and he served as the ethics counselor for his previous law firm for over 15 years.. Active in community programs, Mr. Dickieson has served for ten years on the board of directors of the Washington Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights and is also on the advisory board of SquashEmpower – a non-profit organization which combines academic tutoring with coaching in the sport of squash for urban middle school children. Mr. Dickieson has also spearheaded numerous pro bono legal activities including providing teams of lawyers for legal referral clinics for the disadvantaged sponsored by Bread For The City..

My primary professional goal is to never forget the needs of my clients. Too often attorneys focus on the case, rather than the client. Although I have a passion for litigation, my greater passion is to serve my client well. Being creative, finding the resolution to the problem that escapes others, understanding the culture of my client and what they deem important enables me to distinuish my services from others

After graduating from Columbia with a major in Philosophy, I joined the Peace Corps and taught English for two years in Le Republique du Niger, the world's poorest country.  I then completed a Masters of International Affairs at Columbia, a Masters of Arts in Law and Diplomacy at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, a J.D. at Cornell Law School and an LL.M. at New York Univeristy Law School.  I clerked for two years for Chief Judge Jane Restani on the United States Court of International Trade and then clerked for one year for the Honorable Reynaldo Garza, United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and Chief Judge of the Temporary Emergency Court of Appeals (which has since merged with the Federal Circuit).. After a two year stint in private practice, I became an Assistant Corporation Counsel at the New York City Law Department, where I was promoted to Associate Counsel.. After seven years at the New York City Law Department, I accepted a position at the United States Department of Justice and moved to Washington, D.C.. Though I have moved to D.C., I still enjoy raising money for the New York Philharmonic, the Museum of the City of New York, New York's Museum of Natural History, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Save Venice, Inc.. When not working, I enjoy ballroom dancing, spending time at the University Club of New York, the Univeristy Club of Washington, D.C., and the City Tavern Club of D.C.. My favorite places are Venice, Monaco and New York City.
