About David
David Gaspari earned his law degree from The University of Toledo College of Law in 1988 after completing undergraduate studies at Denison University in 1985. He entered the legal profession following law school and built a practice that has been shaped by courtroom work and involvement in bar organizations. His academic background combined liberal arts and legal training, providing a foundation for work in litigation and professional leadership.
He is a partner at Cunningham Whalen & Gaspari. In that role he has shared responsibility for managing cases, mentoring colleagues and representing clients in contested matters. Colleagues describe him as steady in the courtroom and careful in preparation. Over time he has taken on both trial work and the day-to-day demands of running a litigation practice.
Gaspari’s professional memberships reflect an active engagement with trial practice and bar life. He belongs to the American Board of Trial Advocates and the American Association for Justice. He is also a member of the American Bar Association. Those affiliations place him among practitioners who spend substantial time in litigation and trial work. Locally, he participates in the Florida Justice Association and the Palm Beach County Justice Association, where he meets other lawyers and keeps up with developments that affect civil practice in the state.
Beyond professional societies, Gaspari serves on the Board of Directors for the Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County. That role involves governance of a nonprofit that provides legal services to people who cannot otherwise afford representation. His service on the board ties him into the local legal community and the delivery of pro bono and low-fee services.
His career spans decades in Florida practice. He has handled matters that require trial preparation, courtroom presentation and negotiation. He combines courtroom experience with firm responsibilities. At Cunningham Whalen & Gaspari he works alongside partners and associates to manage the firm’s caseload and represent clients in state matters.
In 2026 he continues to practice in Florida as a partner at Cunningham Whalen & Gaspari, where his work centers on litigation and trial practice in state courts.
