David Dickerson & Associates

I have had multiple custody issues going back 5 years now, concerning my daughter and her well being. I can say, undoubtedly and whole heartedly, that choosing Mike Pallai to represent me in these cases was one of the best choices I have made in my entire life. Mike went above and beyond to ensure my daughter was safe and in my custody. My daughter and I will forever be grateful for that. Thank you Mr. Pallai!

The only efficient thing about this firm is the receptionist. Communication is sorely lacking and your amount will be much less than suggested, and not because of lawyer fees, but because they will forget to file a bill sent to them. They cost me $2,800 of my own money. From a suggested amount to my pocket of $7,000 to $10,000 down to $2,000 after almost a year. This was from a total loss accident, not at fault, with emergency room visit, x-rays, and months of Physical Therapy and lost wages. I would have made more money taking pain medication and going back to work full-time than following this attorney's plan. I cannot recommend a different accident attorney more. For your sake, please seek other representation.

Extremely helpful and professional. I worked with David Mettler. He listens very well, extremely attentive, caring, detail oriented, and he even took time years later to answer questions about another issue. I would recommend him 100 times.

Estate Planning, I’ve had several inquiries from friends and family concerning establishing a Living Trust. When you have the loss of a friend and or a family member, you will have an awakening. You will find out quickly that you aren’t truly prepared for that person's passing. You should think about having those not-so-fun conversations with your elders or spouse about their wishes if something were to happen to them. Think about everything that involves gathering one's personal property and assets. If you don’t have a Will, General Power of attorney, Special Needs, Guardianship, Advance Medical Directive, Joint financial/monetary accounts, and or co-ownership of any assets. You may seriously want to think about having a Living Trust established. Don’t be afraid to hire someone who specializes in family planning. The Dickerson & Smith Law Group located in Virginia Beach, VA. is a law firm you can depend on. The expense of having them draw up a Trust is minimal, compared to what it could cost by having to go through probate. The Dickerson & Smith Law Group is dedicated to assisting you with your estate planning. When my wife and I had our Trust drawn up, their associate team were all consummate professionals. Thank You, Dickerson & Smith Law Group, and I like to give Mr. D. Dickerson Jr. Esq. a special thank you for his counsel and for establishing our family's living trust. It gave us a piece of mind knowing we can sleep well at night, without worrying about how our assets are distributed in the event of our passing.

David Mettler is incredible, he has immense knowledge of the law and is very professional. He gave me the best possible result with my case and truly knows his stuff, felt like a friend by the end of it all. The whole staff is friendly and knowledgeable as well and I had an amazing experience! I can’t recommend this firm enough, give David a call, he’s the best
