Law Offices Of David I. Lee, P.c.

The philosophy of David’s practice is simple. “I maintain a manageable caseload, make sure my clients have as much access to me as possible and do everything I can to obtain the best results under the circumstances. Also, I try never to forget that my clients are human beings first, and not just people that are accused of crimes. There are no guarantees or promises in my practice, except for those.”

David is a Sole Practitioner that emphasizes personal face to face representation. You will not deal with a paralegal, law clerk or other associate attorneys. I rarely, if ever, have used stand ins. From the beginning to the end of your case you will deal with me.
