About

David Sturm joined Allen & Allen in 2019 and works in the Fredericksburg office.

After striking the defense’s medical expert, David was able to obtain a life-altering settlement for his client at mediation. “The experience of fighting for a minor, who suffered a serious brain injury, and successfully obtaining justice for the young man was life-altering for the young man, and also for me – that was more rewarding than anything I had done as a defense attorney,” says David.David is proud to be among the seven attorneys at Allen & Allen named to Best Lawyers in America, a publication considered by many to be the preeminent guide to legal excellence in the United States.
