He is a skilled trial attorney and former federal prosecutor who regularly represents clients in construction and insurance coverage disputes, government and internal investigations, and a variety of commercial litigation. Who's Who Legal ranked David as the top under-45 construction lawyer in the United States, describing him as "an impressive trial lawyer whose practice spans the spectrum of construction matters from insurance to payment claims." (Ranked in 2023 as a Global Leader in Construction.) Chambers USA (ranked 2018-present) published client commentary describing David's strengths as "mastery of insurance, understanding the construction industry, exceptional writing skills and aggressive negotiation." David has developed a niche national practice representing commercial policyholders in insurance coverage disputes, including on many of the largest construction projects and claims across the United States.
David’s leadership in the profession includes serving as host of the ABA Forum on Construction Law's podcast, "Construction Law Today," and as a steering committee member for the forum's division on insurance, surety, and liens.
