Come to a Reasonable Compromise

I was running into problems handling a permit issue with my HOA in San Francisco that stretched for several years. The HOA was being very unreasonable and showed no intent to resolve the issue. I searched for and met with a few lawyers through multiple sources. Due to my lengthy involvement with the HOA, most lawyers could not grasp the overall situation very clearly, and some didn't think we had a chance against our HOA. Not only did David understand the situation after only an hour-long meeting, but he had the right spunk. David provided me with several strategies and helped write several letters to the HOA. He had a knack for calling out the situation as it was and put a spin to it. After several attempts to escalate the situation, I was able to come to a reasonable compromise with the HOA. This resulted in time and money saved because we avoided litigation, which at certain points seemed inevitable. I highly appreciate David's help during this great ordeal. David has a candor that makes working with him a pleasure. His humor also diffuses the tension of the situation. I highly recommend anyone who has to deal with an irrational HOA to reach out to David.
