David Altman

Since 1999, David Altman has been representing seriously injured people and their families throughout the Northeast. A third-generation attorney, David has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for people injured in cases ranging from simple negligence to the most sophisticated and complex liability cases. As a partner at Altman & Altman LLP, David also oversees the firm’s team of attorneys and case managers to ensure that every case gets the attention and care it deserves.

While David has developed a reputation for achieving consistently outstanding results on behalf of injured parties, he is best known for the unmatched level of service he provides. His dedication to being a trusted adviser is evident in his unique approach to client relations that starts with building a meaningful relationship. Working closely alongside with David, clients realize they are in control of their decisions whether to accept a settlement, file a lawsuit, or go to trial. David is available 24 hours a day and is always willing to go the extra mile to deliver client satisfaction and favorable results. After representation on a particular case has ended, clients often find that they consider David not just an adviser but a true friend.

Recognized as one of Boston magazine’s “150 Most Influential Bostonians” in 2024, David’s dedication to the community extends beyond the courtroom. A devoted father to three adult daughters – his proudest title – David is actively involved in a myriad of notable causes, including serving as General Counsel for the David Ortiz Children’s Fund, the nonprofit founded by David “Big Papi” Ortiz that provides lifesaving heart surgeries and care for children in the Dominican Republic and New England.
