David, born in Reading, Pennsylvania, where his father owned a general construction business, has lived in Florida since 1980. A partner at Niesen-Price-Worthy, David has devoted his practice to construction law and litigation ever since he earned his law degree from the University of Florida in 1994. David is licensed to practice law in the state and federal courts of both Florida and Georgia, and has been admitted, pro hac vice, to various other states and tribal court. David is Florida Bar Board Certified in Construction Law, and he has considerable experience in jury and non-jury trials, as well as arbitrations before privately-appointed panels and panels appointed under the American Arbitration Association rules. In addition, David has prosecuted and defended appeals at the District Court of Appeal and Circuit Court of Appeal levels. Though he has experience handling cases involving business and contract disputes, and administrative licensing disputes, David’s practice continues to focus on construction-related matters involving complex litigation. Often times, David is retained to take a proactive role and represent clients at the forefront of an upcoming project, where he will be involved in drafting and negotiating construction contracts for every aspect of the project. Throughout his career as a construction attorney, David has represented contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, sureties, county and city governments and private owners.
