We retained Dave to serve as an expert in complex construction litigation involving a national builder. We requested Dave address multiple construction defects for 24 separate homes, as well as community wide issues with ground water and an improperly designed and implemented storm water system. Dave did an extraordinary job. His report was excellent, and the jury was very complimentary of his performance when we interviewed them post-trial. We certainly would use Dave again in any case we may have and give him the highest recommendation.
