About David
David Koonce is an attorney licensed to practice in Missouri. He brings a background in accountancy to his legal work and balances technical detail with legal analysis.
Koonce completed a Master of Accountancy (M.A.A.C.) at the University of Missouri 6 Columbia in 2007. He went on to earn his J.D. from Boston College, completing that degree in 2010. The combination of formal training in accounting and law shapes how he approaches legal problems.
After law school Koonce began working in Missouri. His accountancy training informs how he evaluates financial records, prepares regulatory filings, and advises clients on the legal implications of financial decisions. That dual training gives him a practical perspective on the intersection of business transactions and compliance obligations.
Colleagues and clients find that he tends to focus on matters where accounting and law overlap. That includes tax-related issues, corporate governance questions, and disputes that require careful review of financial statements. He also spends time on transactional matters where precise numbers matter as much as legal language. He approaches these matters by breaking complex financial materials into understandable parts and by identifying the legal issues those materials raise.
Koonce has worked with clients across a range of business sizes. He has experience preparing and reviewing documentation that supports corporate decision-making and regulatory compliance. In disputes, he is attentive to how accounting choices can affect legal outcomes. In transactions, he pays attention to how deal terms allocate financial risk.
Outside of casework, Koonce 9s academic background in accountancy gives him a steady reference point when interpreting auditing standards, tax code provisions, or financial reporting rules. That background can be useful when teams need someone who understands both ledger entries and statutory text.
He remains based in Missouri and continues to represent clients there. His current practice concentrates on matters that sit at the junction of accounting and law, including tax, corporate, and financial compliance issues.
