I would 100% recommend this law firm and David. I needed help with the purchase and sale of real estate due to many challenges that could have never been expected. Even with the threat of the deals falling apart and dealing with difficult people, he was able to deliver confidence in working through the problems step by step. The disputes were resolved thanks to David's knowledge and support. We could not have done it without his help.
I cannot express my gratitude enough for the exceptional service I received from David at Befeler law firm . Over the nearly two years I’ve worked with David, I faced numerous challenges in my real estate dealings with my ex fiancé , and they were there every step of the way, providing not only legal expertise but also a genuine sense of support and understanding. From our very first consultation, it was clear that he genuinely cares about their clients. They took the time to listen to my concerns and tailored their approach to fit my unique situation. David professionalism, thoroughness, and ability to simplify complex issues made a world of difference during such a difficult time in my life. I truly felt like I had a dedicated partner in my corner, working relentlessly to resolve my matters successfully. Thanks to David Befeler , I can now move forward with confidence and peace of mind.
Always in touch, whit support and knowledge, so professional. trustworthy. I fully recommend him. My case was resolve in the way I need because of him, even when this kind of mediation is so difficult to win, he guided me step by step.

Thank you for your review! We really appreciate your trust in allowing us to represent you to find a successful solution for your case. Please let us know if you need anything else.
I contacted Mr Befeler and 2 other attorneys the first week in September 2024 who specialized in condominium laws. Mr Befeler promptly responded and I never heard from the others. I had been dealing with rats at Patriot Square Condominiums since February 2024. I had contacted the HOA and Resource Property Management immediately regarding the issue. I never received adequate response or communication to the situation. My initial appointment with Mr Befeler was October 8, 2024 but unfortunately Hurricane Helene postponed it and my rescheduled meeting was October 17, 2024. Then Hurricane Milton happened October 10, 2024 and I had to reschedule for the third time for October 29, 2024. After our initial meeting, I hired Mr Befeler and I emailed all my communication and pictures. I included all the lack of communication from HOA and Resource Property Management. The lack of efforts from them to rid the building and all the units from rats. Mr Befeler’s efforts resolved my problem. Thank you
David handled our case from beginning to end. He is unbelievably attentive, helpful, and diligent. We could not be happier with our outcome and the excellent service that was provided. Hopefully, we will never need legal service again, but if we do there is no doubt Befeler Law Firm will be our first call.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review! We are beyond satisfied that we were able to find a positive outcome for your HOA case. We are here if you need us again in the future!
By far one of the best experiences I have had when needing help. David and his law firm took all the stress off our backs and totally put our concerns at ease. We had an issue with our HOA where we needed guidance and they were always there for us until the issue was fully resolved. In the middle we had a contract dispute come up and David made it disappear using a professional and aggressive method. Thank you!!
I hired attorney David Befeler at The Befeler Law Firm who has excellent experience and professionalism. He was very thorough and professional. I had a positive outcome in my case. I highly recommend this law firm.

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
