David R. Addelman Esq.
1957 - 2019
Condolences
I only met David on one occasion through a civil case I was defending but it was obvious what a kind and decent gentleman he was. My deepest condolences to your entire family.
I am so saddened by David’s passing. I was so fortunate to have worked for him and with all the others at the A&M law firm. I will remember David for his warmth towards people and his dedication to his work and love of family. It is an honour to have known him. My sincere condolences to the family and his close work associates and long-time friends.

Our deepest sympathies to the entire Addelman family. We know Dave as a dedicated family man,
our lawyer, our teammate, our concert buddy and our friend. He is very much missed!
I met Dave on entering law school in 1980 and had the pleasure and privilege of getting to know him as a classmate and basketball teammate. Dave was one of the most selfless and honest people I have ever known and whom I will always remember. My deepest condolences to Kim and the entire Addelman family on your loss.
Kim, my thoughts are with you and yours. Wish that I could be there and celebrate your life together. Dave always made me laugh and I will always remember that. Always remember he is joining the Queen and Aunt Dearie and looking down and saying Wow!! Love you xoxoxoxo
David was a great man who touched many lives in positive ways through his volunteer legal work at the ECBA Volunteer Lawyers Project. David volunteered with us from the early 1990's up until his illness took hold. He generously helped dozens of low income clients and always seemed happy to be able to do so. My condolences go out to his daughter Kara (who also volunteers) and the rest of David's family.

Dear Kara and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Although it has been many years, I have only fond memories of working criminal defense cases with David. Whether it was a multi-defendant federal case or a smaller more intense state court matter, he was always a generous and caring colleague.

My sincerest condolences to the entire Addelman family during this time.
My deepest condolences to Kim and her family on their tremendous loss. David was truly one in a million and I have so many memories of good times shared with him. He left us way too soon but we are all better off having known him. May he Rest In Peace in knowing how he touched the lives of so many people. With my deepest sympathy, Barb Bellman
Dave has left us way too soon; but he made WNY a better place. Its hard to use past tense for Dave, he is a full of life personality & I know he did a lot of pro bono work in the legal community. He & I shared one client for decades and never charged a cent, but no one knew but us. In my many years a a prosecutor I know there were several more; he could be
a bear, but he was a teddy bear. A tragic loss for the legal community of WNY. Deepest sympathies to Kim and family.
