Mr. Finkelstein is one of the most talented, caring attorneys I have ever had the good fortune to work with. He worked his tail off for me and was aggressive, effective and very timely. He always returned my calls and met with me whenever I needed him. He handled several commercial litigation cases for me and has done some trust work, as well. I strongly recommend him.

I invested in 4 houses during the housing bubble. David got me completely off the debt on three of them, over a million and a half dollars worth of debt. The fourth one didn't work out because the bank, Bank of America currently does not let anyone out of their mortgages. He is very smart and works hard and always kept me updated. He is trying to defend the deficiency judgment on the fourth house. He also has very good advice about taxes and explained how to avoid the tax on the forgiven debt because I was insolvent. You cannot find a better, smarter, more qualified lawyer than David, at least in the areas he says he practices in.

This lawyer talks a good game but doesnt deliver. He took my money very quickly but when it came time to do the work it never got done. He also convinced me to list my property with him as a short sale and he listed it in the wrong market. I only found out because another realtor checked into my listing and found he did it wrong. He charges around 350 an hour and gives terrible service. I never knew what was happening in my lawsuit, he would always give me vague updates only when I asked. He charged me $70 to respond to my emails and he would only give me a 1 line response!! DO NOT USE THIS LAWYER, I WOULD RATHER BURN THE $3400 I SPENT ON HIM IF I WOULDVE KNOWN HE WASNT GOING TO DO ANYTHING.

After a $5000 retainer David accomplished nothing and did almost nothing to resolve a real estate short sale. Communication was minimal and pointless. Questions were never answered and it became obvious he did not know the answers and would not be bothered to learn them, even on tax matters where he claims a primary expertise. Worse, he left us vulnerable to foreclosure moving ahead while letting an excellent offer slip through our fingers. Once repeated demands for our file were finally answered it was clear he had kept very sloppy records and done almost nothing we could not have done ourselves. His claims of repeated contacts and progress were documented as fiction by the record. He had not even replied to the bank at a critical moment. Essentially he just took $5000 for absolutely nothing and knows it is too little to come after him for.
