• OVERVIEW

  Growing up in Wisconsin, David developed a passion for board games at a young age, drawn to the strategy and problem-solving they require. That same mindset informs his work as a litigator: know the rules, think several moves ahead, and build a strategy that wins. David brings that same disciplined, competitive approach to every case he handles.
