Dan Rathbun and Dave Bateman represented me in a partition matter. Dan and Dave were experts in setting my expectations and providing insights on the most likely outcomes. My questions were responded to quickly and thoroughly using language and examples I could understand. While legal representation has its price, I walked away from each conversation/email knowing the path forward and feeling that I was getting the best representation and return on my investment. As a result of their strategic thinking and expertise, the court made a determination that was extremely favorable. I very strongly recommend Rathbun Bateman -- I would trust them again to represent my interests. Having observed Dave Bateman in deposition and trial settings, there is nobody I would rather work with. He is professional, quick on his feet, and used all available resources to secure my win.

Dave Bateman represented us most admirably in a difficult property ownership litigation, with the result a very favorable settlement for our side. Throughout the process, Dave was accessible, patient, and understanding, helping to put us at ease during an uncertain time. I highly recommend Rathbun Bateman.

Thank you Mr.Belkowitz.I appreciate your time and effort. Mrs.Cate also.😁

We could not have asked for a better representation than David Bateman. He made things happen and quickly helped us settle a very sticky situation.

Prompt and courteous service. My title insurance company had retained Rathbun Bateman to file a lawsuit to correct my deed. This isn't as adverse as it sounds; the relief we sought was merely for the seller to sign and notarize a deed correction of mistakes made by the real estate attorney who drafted the original deed. We only resorted to filing a lawsuit after the title claim representive had reached out to the seller multiple times, but she didn't respond. The lawsuit enabled us to, based on the evidence, to get my deed corrected whether she cooperated or not. It wasn't adversarial to the seller; we just wanted the right thing to be done, so it wouldn't complicate future sales of the property. Mr. Bateman was courteous and sympathetic to both parties and was able to calmly and gently explain to the seller that there was no need for her to panic, as all we wanted was for her fix something that wasn't her fault, but only her notarized signature could fix. She complied with the request and Mr. Batemen expeditiously moved the court for a final order and dismissal for the convenience of all parties. Now that my deed has been corrected, it no longer presents a possible barrier to future title settlements, insurance claims, or matters where the property could serve as collateral.

Great experience with the firm, they were knowledgeable and supportive

Very professional and clear approach.

When swimming in the legal world it is a rarity to find an attorney who is not only experienced and highly competent, but who is also kind-hearted and empathetic to complex and unique situations. David Bateman has a vast array of knowledge as a lawyer to assist in various civil litigation matters including but not limited to contract disputes, divorce, real estate, and business law. David's attention to detail and understanding is a rarity in this fast-paced world that makes a tremendous difference in digesting and ciphering through legal subjects. He is timely with responsiveness and has the ability to think outside the box. If you're looking for someone who will be in your corner and will have your back through anticipated rough waters, David is your go-to guy and will not steer you wrong. I am not only grateful to have the opportunity to work with David, but feel truly blessed. Thank you Rathbun Bateman, P.C. for all that you do!

I retained Rathbun and Bateman in late September to assist with a commercial lease issue after multiple attempts at having it corrected with the landlord. During our six month court process...they were completely responsive and made me feel like I was their only client...even though I knew that wasn't the case. Dave Bateman presented my case efficiently and effectively. They were always available to answer my questions (which were many because I've never been in court), and presented me with all options available. After the case was over, he made sure I completely understood what had been granted, presented options, and scheduled a follow-up with me at a later date. As a business owner, having an issue with a landlord during an already stressful time has been daunting. Rathbun and Bateman are top notch attorneys and I will never go anywhere else for legal representation.

When I first reached out to David Bateman for his counsel on a legal matter, he spelled out a strategy and made no pie in the sky promises. He walked me through all the potential outcomes of our case. He was thorough and he achieved the best possible outcome given the circumstances. He is also a genuinely good guy.

I write today to express my gratitude my gratitude for Mr. David Bateman's guidance and time. Mr. Bateman truly is knowledgeable in his practices for Rathbun Bateman, P.C. He spent time explaining what options and possibilities of the outcome of my case would be which put me at ease. He genuinely care's for future and current clients of his. Thank you, Laura
