About David J.
David J. Gorberg trained at Southwestern Law School, where he completed his legal education before entering practice. He is admitted to practice in Hawaii, Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey. Those multi-state credentials reflect a career that spans different regional courts and consumer protection cultures.
Gorberg's professional path includes long-standing involvement in plaintiff-side advocacy groups. He has held membership in the Pennsylvania Association for Justice since 1988. He joined the New Jersey Association for Justice in 2014, the New York State Trial Lawyers Association in 2018, the National Association of Consumer Advocates in 2019 and the Hawaii Association for Justice in 2022. The list reads like a map of the communities where he has worked and where he has maintained professional ties.
His practice is organized under the name David J. Gorberg & Associates. The firm appears across several regional listings, including offices identified for New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Hawaii. Those offices reflect a pattern: regional practices under a single firm name rather than a collection of unrelated entities. The firm name is consistent across the offices noted in public listings.
Gorberg's day-to-day work centers on consumer protection claims, particularly those arising under state lemon law statutes. He has litigated claims on behalf of vehicle owners and other consumers, pursuing remedies available through arbitration, administrative processes and court actions. Cases typically involve alleged defects, warranty disputes and claims that manufacturers or dealers failed to make necessary repairs.
Colleagues and opposing counsel often describe litigators like Gorberg as persistent and methodical. He has sought to develop cases through document discovery, testing reports and depositions to build a record for hearings or trial. His memberships in trial lawyers’ associations and consumer-advocacy groups indicate sustained engagement with trial practice and developments in consumer law.
Outside the courtroom, Gorberg has maintained connections to bar and trial groups across the states where he practices. Those memberships provide access to continuing legal education and peer networks, which are relevant to lawyers who prosecute consumer claims across state lines. He continues to handle lemon law and consumer protection matters through his firm, representing clients in the jurisdictions where he is licensed to practice.
