Law Offices of David S Secrest

David represented me in an illegal dismissal case. It was rather complicated, but he steered me through the lengthy process and I was pleased with the outcome. I would recommend him.

Like David who slew Goliath, Dave Secrest entered the battlefield created by my wrong termination and faced the corporate giant responsible for this atrocity. With unlimited money to finance one of the most successful legal teams in the Bay Area, the Archdiocese presented a defense in which David skillfully found its vulnerable areas. Using his depth of lawful knowledge, his focused and strategic attack, and his unwavering confidence in the innocence of his client, Dave slew the giant. It was a victory overflowing with satisfaction, and the termination was recognized for what it was, wrongful! My heart is still filled with gratitude for this gifted and professional lawyer.

David Secrest helped me during a very hard time. I became unemployed and did not have much money or therefore options. David was patient, kind, and heard me as I produced my evidence of unlawful termination and deceit. I am grateful to have found someone who was so so knowledgable that being thorough was essentially a given, that staying on top of things was second nature.
I feel that if he hadn’t believed me, and trusted in what I had to say things could have turned out differently. He makes you feel safe and respected when (especially in an unlawful termination against a large corporation), you may small and belittled. Please, if you are looking for an Employment lawyer who is as kind and attentive as he is decorated, spare yourself the stress and do as I and contact David.

I highly recommend David Seacrest. He took our employment discrimination case when others would not and he fought hard for us despite this being a case with a very small chance of a big payout. His communication was excellent and his knowledge of the law was very thorough. He was extremely professional and effective, even forcing our opposition to switch lawyers because he was consistently shellacking their first one. We ended up with a fair settlement, but always felt David would have gone to the mat for us had we wanted to press forward towards a trial. David has my highest regard and greatest thanks for righting a wrong he didn’t even need to take on.

If you are in the market for a Lawyer who specializes in Employment Law, David Secrest is the one you are looking for. His work ethic is unparalleled. He is determined, brilliant and driven. Hiring Mr. Secrest to represent me was the best decision I ever made! I was scared and nervous in the beginning but with each day of the process I grew more confident with him representing me. He was with me every step of the way through a very difficult case that took over two years to settle. He never wavered once. The end results were extremely favorable for me and my family. My life is changed forever because of Mr. Secrest’s efforts. I am very grateful to Mr. Secrest for his commitment, integrity and willingness to help the underdog fight the large corporations.

Dave Seacrest represented my wife and I on a very difficult discrimination and personal injury case lasting over 3 years. Dave’s tenacity, extensive experience, and razor sharp legal skills made all of the difference in our case, and the corporation ultimately decided to settle out of court.
Dave helped us formulate a strategy for resolution and then went above and beyond to ensure we understood where we were with the case at all times. I personally recommend Dave Seacrest’s services for anyone in need of an honest, personable, tough but fair minded lawyer that always keeps his clients best interests top of mind. Retaining Dave as legal counsel proved to be the turning point in our case and put the opposition on notice we meant business!
Thanks again for all you do Dave! You rock!

Mr. Secrest is a personable, experienced, performance-​driven attorney who gets results. I would recommend him 100 percent.
David was very detail oriented. My case was well documented and easy to follow related to Mr. Secrest’s technologic advanced office. This gave us the winning advantage. David was always well prepared. He knew my case inside and out. David had done his research and was able to reference other similar cases to aid in my defense. He kept in constant communication with me throughout the entire process.
The one thing that stands out in my mind the most regarding David Secrest is his work ethics and moral character. My life is changed and I am forever grateful for his assistance.

I would not recommend him. I wish he would have said «I can’t help you» from the start. Instead, he dragged me along for years. His lack of communicating any kind of plan stressed me out. In the end, I found a dead end and a lot of heart ache.

David is such a knowledgeable and dynamic attorney to work with, it was a honor that he would pick up my case and be my advocate. I had no prior law background or involvement in a lawsuit prior to contacting David. My case involved wrongful termination from my previous employer. From the start he explained everything clearly and provided direction and options throughout each step. He thoroughly reviewed every part of my case and critically examined every angle that may be challenged by the opposing party. I always felt like we were several steps ahead of the defense, and at the end I learned that it was indeed the true, the opposing party played a lot of catch up because David was simply that good! He cites previous relevant cases in remarkable detail that he even had to remind our mediator of the case he had in mind to reference. The result achieved was such a positive outcome beyond what I was expecting!
Anyone who has been wrongfully terminated would know that it naturally diminishes your self-​worth, and often the unlawful termination is difficult to prove. Prior to speaking with David, I interviewed a couple other attorneys who were easily intimidated and discouraged by the uncertainties of my case. However David’s approach was fierce, he identified the areas that seemed weak and examined the defense’s possible approach. His confidence was a reflection of his knowledge in the field. In speaking with David it was obvious that he was the best for the job, and I’m so thankful that he was willing to take me on!
