David J. Marquardt
Owner/Partner
Since graduating from law school in 2004, David has focused his practice on all aspects of family law. He has extensive experience handling all types of cases, including divorce, property division, financial support, child custody, and protective orders.
The best family law attorneys are those who understand they are helping people through one of the most difficult periods in their lives. In keeping with this spirit, David is particularly invested in helping his clients achieve a better future for themselves and their families. Although he works tirelessly toward obtaining an amicable resolution that is in the best interest of his clients, he also meticulously prepares his cases in the event court intervention is required.
Born and raised in Montgomery County, Maryland, David holds a law degree from the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida, and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Richmond in Richmond, Virginia. Following law school, David returned to his home state, where he takes pride in bettering his community.
