About David
Personal Biography
I was born and raised in the Fargo-Moorhead area and have lived here all of my life. I am married and have two children. My son is a chiropractor, practicing in Fargo and my daughter is a school teacher in Moorhead, Minnesota. We are blessed with three grandchildren.
Educational Background
I attended the University of North Dakota at Grand Forks. I received my Juris Doctor Degree from the University of North Dakota School of Law in 1965. I was a member of the Board of Editors of the North Dakota Law Review.

I am admitted to practice in the United States District Courts of North Dakota, the United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit, and the United States Supreme Court. I have been admitted to practice for specific cases in Minnesota, South Dakota, California and Florida.
Areas of Practice
The primary focus of my practice over the last 33 years has been plaintiffs' serious personal injury and wrongful death cases. I have handled a large number of brain injury cases. The majority of my cases are the result of automobile and truck accidents. I also work in the area of medical malpractice, and with people who are injured as a result of defective products. Most of my cases involve very serious injuries. I also focus on wrongful death cases, one in particular, wrongful deaths of children.

I have lectured in over 30 states, Canada and Mexico on all aspects of how to represent personal injury clients, prepare their cases for settlement and how to try their cases to a judge or jury.
