Having worked with David collaboratively on a number of occasions over a period of years, I can state, unequivocally, that his razor sharp intellect and thorough approach to legal analysis always leaves his client well advised, informed and served.

David is one of the most incisive attorneys with whom I have ever worked. Before delving into "solving" a problem, he ensures that he understands what the issues are - and how important the entire matter is to the client. Then he carefully walks through the options - and their likely repercussions. While David is generous with his time, he is also extraordinarily efficient and able to formulate effective legal strategies quickly; this isn't someone looking to rack up billable hours just for the sake of doing so. I have found his counsel sound and his demeanor soothing when I have had to call upon his services. On more than one occasion, he has helped me make the most of my particular circumstances, while avoiding an unnecessarily confrontational stance with the other parties. David is just the sort of counsel you want on your side when you end up in a dispute and cannot afford to have it consume your attention - or your business.

David helped me and my family deal with a legal dispute that helped save us a considerable amount of money and a great deal of stress. David displayed a deep understanding of the issue and led us to a very practical and satisfying solution.

"David is not only an outstanding attorney, he is a master strategist. He has great tactical patience and thinks along the X, Y and Z axis. He sees and understands the big picture as well as critical detail and nuance. David gets to know his clients very well and instills the necessary discipline essential for a successful outcome. In the course of running my company, all matters of a critical nature are passed by David for his counsel and approval. I would not be without him in the "battlefield" of business today." John C.

I've worked with and know David for a number of years in order to review various arbitration clauses in contracts. His insights were invaluable to my clients and me as we were able to make important adjustments in order to have a better and more appropriately drafted agreement.

David is a litigator by training who, over a decade ago, began to focus on arbitration and mediation. Yet he remains one of the best advocates a client can have in any forum. He is a passionate believer in arbitration and mediation as less expensive and more efficient alternatives to court. But his expertise is not so limited. He knows a lot about a lot of different areas of the law. In short he is a rare legal talent -- even though he has trended away from regular court cases there are few litigators who match his expertise.

I have known David personally and professionally for well over a decade. He possesses top notch skills as an Attorney Advocate, Arbitrator and Neutral Mediator primarily in business disputes. He is a consummate professional, a steady source of sound advice and reason - a lawyer’s lawyer so to speak. In addition to just being a good person, David has all the highly credentialed pedigree one would expect of a leader who has reached the height of his profession from his education, professional affiliations, teaching experience, frequent lectures and most importantly the respect and recognition of his peers, friends and all with whom he interacts.

I have known David for decades. He is my "go to" person for everything having to do with business disputes. David started off as a litigator and then decided he could better help his clients with alternate dispute resolution. He is caring, thorough, professional, ethical and an excellent attorney. I highly recommend him.

I know him to be a business litigation lawyer, and a neutral commercial arbitrator and mediator. He serves on several Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forums and organizations. He is very well-regarded among his peers. He listens well and is able to delve into the heart of the matter. He has impressed me with his ability to convey his points in an articulate manner that is sensitive and nuanced. David often displays good humor that can defuse a tense interaction. With more than three decades in his legal career, and I would highly recommend David J. Abeshouse to anyone who has a need for mediation and alternative dispute resolution.
