He is skilled in working efficiently on behalf of his clients by quickly assessing potential liability and exposure, including the viability of any available claims and defenses, and aggressively acting to use the same in helping his clients achieve the best outcome consistent with their practical business objectives. Where appropriate and necessary, Dave has utilized his broad experience in structuring varied agreements with outside litigation funding firms, enabling his clients to litigate or arbitrate meritorious claims while providing alternative sources of funding to pay for the expense of litigation.
