David recognizes that every engagement, case, or issue he handles cannot and should not be viewed in isolation. For his clients in heavily regulated industries, in particular, David understands that how a given matter is addressed and resolved can have long-term implications that must be part of the calculus when developing a strategy or approach. This informs his interactions with government attorneys, regulators, and investigators and helps him find solutions that establish favorable precedents for his clients and the industries in which they operate.
“ I look at every engagement, even those involving governmental scrutiny or adverse action, as an opportunity to create a more favorable legal environment for my clients. I seek resolutions that not only achieve immediate objectives but also lay the foundation for future success. ”
