About David
David Katz earned his law degree from Barry University Dwayne O. Andreas School of Law in 2000. He finished his legal studies at a time of change in the profession, and entered practice as the new century began. The diploma based the foundation for a career in personal practice that now spans more than two decades.
His law program years have been marked by the rigorous study conventional of ABA-accredited packages. He moved from classroom theory to courtroom procedure and client counseling, then into day-to-day practice. Those first years of practice helped form how he strategies client things and case control nowadays.
Since completing his formal education, Katz has worked in private practice. He is associated with Katz & Phillips, P.A., a company whose name reflects his position there. Over the years he has treated client work that required both court preparation and negotiated resolution. He has seen instances through evidence-gathering process, motion practice, and trial preparation, and he has advised clients on approach and risk.
Colleagues describe Katz as methodical in his preparation. He favors clean timelines, cautious records review, and plainspoken explanations for clients. He balances the technical aspects of lawyering with the realistic need to transport matters forward. That mix of making plans and pragmatism has been a constant function of his work.
Katz’s knowledge spans the realistic duties of operating client things and the executive responsibilities of company practice. He has controlled teams, coordinated expert testimony, and overseen filings in multiple venues. Those duties require awareness to procedure as much as they do to substantive law, and he has constructed routines to keep complex matters on target.
Outside of casework, Katz has maintained ties to the professional network. He keeps recent on modifications in laws and court rules that affect daily practice. He also mentors younger attorneys at his company, offering advice on writing, courtroom demeanor, and attorney-client communication.
In 2026, Katz continues to practice at Katz & Phillips, P.A. He keeps a private practice there, dealing with a broad mix of matters for individual and enterprise clients.
