“David has one of the best attribute of any consultant: He’s curious. My experience is that curious people are detail-oriented, analytical, and creative in creating the unique approach to every challenge. I’ve known David for decades, and he was my first choice for a very challenging high profile matter. His knowledge of politics, human nature, land use, government policy and the incredible perspective about the way those issues all interconnect are virtually unparalleled. David can navigate high visibility situations maintaining total discretion. He has the calmest demeanor I’ve encountered in any consultant I’ve worked with as a lawyer.”
