Sa mahigit 30 taong karanasan sa pagsasanay ng batas, si David ay isang bihasang legal na propesyonal na nananatiling nakatutok sa pagtatanggol sa mga abogadong inakusahan ng maling pag-uugali at pagtiyak na ang batas ay inilalapat sa etikal na paraan sa buong board.
Originally from Joliet, Illinois, David relocated to Las Vegas when he was 14 years old. After graduating Clark High School, he received his undergraduate degree from Claremont McKenna College in Political Science. Following a term as a Congressional staffer for U.S. Senator Harry Reid, he went on to Loyola of Los Angeles School of Law. He joined the Richard Harris Law Firm because of the firm's culture and the opportunity to focus his practice on legal ethics and risk management.
