Dave's practice is focused primarily on representing banks and other parties in structuring, negotiating and documenting commercial lending transactions. His representation of banks typically includes the establishment of working capital lines of credit; inventory, equipment and accounts receivable financing facilities; letter of credit facilities; and real estate loans. In addition to the typical line of credit and asset-based lending transactions, recent banking transactions include representation of both borrowers and lenders with respect to loans for: acquisitions of raw land and various types of owner-occupied or income producing properties; construction or renovation of commercial properties; equity acquisitions; asset acquisitions, often including the associated real estate assets; and the establishment of lines of credit either secured by, or for the acquisition of, income producing properties.

Dave also spends a substantial amount of time negotiating and documenting various real estate transactions, including sales and acquisitions of commercial real estate and commercial leases

Dave is a 1982 graduate of Stanford University and received his Doctor of Jurisprudence from the Hastings College of Law, University of California, San Francisco in 1985.
