Since 1994, David has been representing people who have been physically and emotionally harmed due to the recklessness or lack of care of others. David's legal work reflects the skill, knowledge and determination he has developed in over twenty-five years as an attorney.

David grew up in New York City and attended public school in Flushing, Queens. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from C.C.N.Y. of the City University of New York in 1980. For four years David drove a taxi cab in New York City at night full-time to support himself and pay for law school.

From 1982 until 1984, David worked full-time as a trial assistant for the District Attorney's Office in Manhattan, New York while completing his law school education at night. He graduated from New York Law School in 1984.

David then became a state prosecutor in the Dade County (Miami, FL) office of the State Attorney. He relocated to Rhode Island in 1988 and became a state prosecutor with the Rhode Island Attorney General's Office. During his career as a prosecutor David never lost a murder or child sexual assault trial.

After working as a prosecutor, David went to work for a large Rhode Island plaintiff personal injury medical malpractice/litigation firm (Decof & Grimm) as a trial attorney in 1994. He then took a job as a trial attorney with another similar firm (Lang & Morgera) in Boston, MA in 1998. At both firms he was the lead attorney in jury verdicts in excess of $1,000,000.00.
