When I first came to Dave, my life was a bit of a mess. The level of concern that he exhibited and the amount of effort that he expended was truly remarkable. Thanks to those efforts, I now have a fresh start.

Mr. Loeffler’s expertise as both a lawyer and real estate agent proved invaluable. He wrote me a deed removing my ex-wife from my house, fought with my lender to keep the house from going into foreclosure, and then sold it for top dollar. I was absolutely thrilled with his results.

It was abundantly clear from Day 1 that Dave had my interests first. He is incredibly knowledgeable and he fought for the best outcome at every step along the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better representative and cannot recommend him highly enough. Thanks, Dave!
