About David English
David English Kwartler earned his law degree from Villanova University School of Law in 2007 after completing undergraduate studies in political science at Muhlenberg College in 2003. His time in school framed a practical approach to legal work. He combined classroom training with a steady interest in how law intersects with public life.
After law school, Kwartler began practicing across state lines. He is licensed to practice in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey and maintains membership in the Pennsylvania State Bar. Those credentials have shaped a practice rooted in the rules and procedures of two neighboring state systems. Over the years he has navigated matters that require close attention to state statutes, court rules and local procedure.
Kwartler’s work takes place in courtrooms, conference rooms and at negotiation tables. He represents clients in matters that arise under Pennsylvania and New Jersey law. That can mean preparing pleadings, briefing motions, negotiating settlements and appearing for hearings. He approaches each assignment by breaking problems into concrete steps and addressing the legal and practical questions they raise.
At Kwartler Manus, LLC he is part of a small firm environment that serves private and commercial clients. The firm’s work involves handling disputes and advising on legal obligations under state law. Kwartler contributes to case strategy and client counseling, and he handles tasks that range from initial case assessment through resolution. Colleagues and clients describe his style as straightforward; he aims to present options clearly and to set realistic expectations about timing and outcomes.
Outside of day-to-day practice he stays engaged with developments in Pennsylvania law through bar activities and continuing legal education. That ongoing attention helps him keep current on changes in procedure and statutory interpretation that affect his clients. He also draws on his undergraduate background in political science when legal issues touch on governmental or regulatory questions.
As of 2026 Kwartler continues to practice law at Kwartler Manus, LLC, representing clients in matters that arise under Pennsylvania and New Jersey law.
