David helped me years ago with a case many other lawyers said wasn't winnable so they wernt interested. David was honest that it was a long shot but he would do his best. In the end we won. To this day I still recommend him to everyone.

I went in needing help with a small portion of my paperwork and he sat me down and put things in terms I could understand and even worked through the child support paperwork I was struggling with so much! He's a lifesaver! I wouldn't have been able to figure it out if it weren't for him! He was super friendly and knew what he was talking about.

Spectacular person and very knowledgeable, even though he was busy he took the time to be able to have a very thorough and thoughtful discussion about the matters at hand and he pointed me in the right direction for my specific needs. Highly recommended

I have had two very significant professional experiences with David over the years and he has helped me so much that I feel I need to share this with others so that they may find him. He does not need more business; this is public service message. The first time he helped me was to help resolve my deceased mother's estate. As anyone who has experienced this situation knows, the death of a parent is very sad and very stressful. It is also a time where family disagreements can emerge. I needed help getting my mother's small estate settled. My siblings and I could not agree on the method to do this. David initially was consulted to help all of us mutually. It ended up he represented me. He helped get this potentially bad experience resolve by guiding us to a very reputable and experienced third-party manager who for a very modest fee worked with all of us to settles the estate. David handled this with understanding, thoroughness and skill. The second professional interaction that I have had with David was with the unfortunate ending of my marriage from my spouse who I very much still love. This was the most significantly sad and distressing event of my whole life. Initially my ex-wife and I tried to use a 100 percent collaborative approach to our divorce. We had several young children and significant personal assets, and our mutual goal was to have a healthy, stable family relationship as an end result. As an inherent part of the collaborative approach, it was necessary to have both parties be represented by their own counsel. This led to the almost inevitable conflict as each lawyer represented their own client's best interest. A more adversarial type of divorce process developed as time went on. The end result was that I think occurred was the best possible outcome for me, my ex-wife and our children other than if a divorce and the reason for it had never occurred. David contributed very significantly to making this happen. I was very sad and very anxious during the process. He made himself available to me and provided careful, thorough and compassionate advice in a way that made it seem as I was his only client. That obviously was not the case. He has many clients who he was helping with similarly important matters. Not only did David provide me with expert legal advice but he provided me with very insightful personal advice to help me stay in the right frame of mind. When I would go off course in my thinking, he very solidly steered me back to a productive thought process in a non-judgmental manner. I never asked him how much he thought that the process would cost because I would have paid any price to have things turn out well. In the end, while the process was not inexpensive, the costs that I paid for his legal services were such a high value considering the amount and quality of advice that he provided to me. I think that David and I had a particularly good working relationship because we have a similar personality and way of thinking. He is very methodical, likes to his explain his thought process and the nuances to the decision-making process. He makes it very clear that the law and outcomes, especially in matters such as this are not black and white nor predictable. I understood and accepted that reality. Some people may come to the situation wanting their lawyer to tell them with certainty what will happen. Some people would only be confident in their attorney if there was arrogance and bluster. That type of person would not likely find David to be their best fit. For me, he was the perfect fit though. I told him many times that I felt like he was what it would be like if I had an older, much smarter brother who happened to be a lawyer. He cared that much about me and my case.

I would recommend David to anyone who has a family law situation that is very important to them, who wants a very smart, thoughtful and dedicated lawyer to help them navigate the process to the best outcome.

David worked with me for a successful conclusion of my case. While I realized that my case was not the only case he was dealing with, he always made me feel as though I was the only one that he was working on. His professionalism, courtesy, and overall responsiveness is the reason that I highly recommend David.

Mr Lohman handled my QDRO with ease. He took what was originally an unapproved mess done by a former lawyer in Cd’A and recreated the order flawlessly. I can’t say enough about his ability to execute with grace and excellence. The best thing about David is his communication. He responds immediately and kept me informed fully throughout the process! Invaluable! Hire him!!

David Lohman is a blessing to work with. He is diligent and very bright. He helped me through my divorce in such a way to where my ex and I are on good terms and both satisfied with the outcome of the project.

Very personable and helpful; though I didn’t hire him I got stuck in a bad situation with a terrible lawyer and he was willing to help me help myself to fix it. Great man. Would have hired him had he not been so busy. Thanks lohman

He was very rude to me on the phone when I called about a sensitive topic, very abrupt and careless. He was discouraging and hurtful about my inquiry. He refused to even talk to me about someone stealing my trust fund that he was assigned to take care of a few years ago. He was insulting and I'm going to follow up with the Idaho State Bar.

Awesome person to get you through legal challenges. Very professional and compassionate

Absolutely the most detailed and informative attorney in town! I have hired two other attorneys on two different occasions, one for a work situation with an employer and another attorney for a child custody case – I wish I had met him before I hired either one of them! I know exactly how much money, trouble and work is involved when you have a bad attorney! Even if you have one currently and you are not satisfied, don’t be afraid to jump on with David. Well worth it in the end. DO NOT HIRE ANOTHER ATTORNEY BEFORE YOU CALL HIM – David Lohman was amazing and knew tricks and coached us to ensure we handled a very difficult situation perfectly. He returns calls quickly, gives each client the attention they deserve and has a passion for law. He is not over booked, and you don’t feel like just a number and a paycheck for him. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He even squeezed in appointments after hours to fit our busy schedule. One conversation with this man and you will never hire another – thank you for all your time and effort David!
