About David
David Sifre is an attorney whose professional path runs through major law schools and both trial and appellate courts. He earned his J.D. from New York University School of Law in 1993 after completing a B.A. at the University of Michigan in 1990. Those formative years set the stage for a career that moves between courtroom procedure and appellate practice.
He joined Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP early in his career, listed there in 1993 as Special Counsel. That experience at a large New York firm exposed him to complex litigation practice and the operations of a multinational legal office. A year after law school he was admitted to the New York bar in 1994, and later gained admission to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, the U.S. Supreme Court, and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
Sifre’s qualifications give him access to both trial and appellate fora. He is authorized to practice in state and federal courts and holds the credentials necessary to present matters in higher courts. The combination of state-bar admission and federal admissions often shapes how an attorney manages cases that move from trial to appeal. It also informs strategy when multiple jurisdictions are involved.
In 2020 he established his own practice, founding the Law Office of David Sifre LLC. That step moved him out of the large-firm environment and into a practice where he manages client relationships directly. Running a small firm requires a different skill set than working inside a large partnership; it demands attention to case selection, court procedures, and the logistical work of maintaining a solo or small-team office.
Over the years Sifre has maintained a practice that relies on courtroom access and appellate avenues. He is admitted to practice before the nation’s highest court and important federal tribunals. Those admissions are part of his professional profile and influence the kinds of matters he can accept and prosecute.
He currently practices from the Law Office of David Sifre LLC. His work involves matters filed in state and federal courts, including the appellate courts where he holds admission. He maintains an active practice representing clients in proceedings that require experienced court appearances.
