David moved to our Town in 1997 to attend Law School following completing his Bachelor studies at Florida State. While studying law at Nova Southeastern, David spent extensive time with the Environmental and Land Use Law Center, representing families fighting over-development. Since his admission to the Florida Bar, David has limited his law practice to personal injury and first party insurance litigation, recovering tens of millions of dollars in denied and underpaid insurance claims owed to individuals and small businesses.  After paying down most of his student loans, he became active in the Sunshine Ranches Homeowners Association.  In 2017 David was unanimously elected President of the HOA and began rebuilding the Association beginning by implementing policies for conservative fiscal management and promoting membership.  In 2018, David led a community wide effort fighting against a half-a billion-dollar commercial business from locating inside Sunshine Ranches less than 1500 feet from several family homes.  In 2020, David was elected to the Council on a platform of Keeping Southwest Ranches Rural.  He is the first attorney elected to the Council, and the youngest member on the Council.  David fights to Preserve our Rural Lifestyle with an emphasis on reducing speeding, fighting increases in tax rates, keeping the new areas of pro-active code compliance at a minimum, fighting against new commercial development in the Town, fighting against the constant pressures for increased density for housing, promoting activities to help our residents, promoting agriculture uses, and providing a safe community for our animals including horses, livestock, wildlife and domestic dogs and cats. David is the proud owner of three rescue dogs, Lucy, Clinto, and Django, and one cat, Baxter.
