About Us

At Edward Allen Law, we represent landlords — and we do it efficiently, affordably, and at scale.

We understand what matters to landlords: resolving problems quickly, protecting your bottom line, and avoiding unnecessary complications. Whether you own a single rental or manage thousands of units, we offer practical, fixed-cost legal services tailored to your needs.


🧠 Business-Minded. Landlord-Focused.

Edward Allen Law was founded by David Szostek, a lifelong entrepreneur who started his first business at 13 and made his first corporate acquisition at 18. Over a nearly 30-year career, he has owned companies across industries — from tech to food service — and brings that business-first mindset into every legal engagement.

David is a licensed real estate broker and a dedicated landlord attorney, with a focus on eviction and property-related legal services. He has personally filed over 10,000 eviction cases and regularly appears in nearly 30 Michigan courts.

He has represented large-scale landlords, public housing authorities, and private residential and commercial property owners. David has even been selected as amicus curiae in major landlord-tenant disputes and is the only practicing attorney to have trained Michigan lawyers on how to comply with the 2023 landlord-tenant court rule changes, through the Institute for Continuing Legal Education (ICLE).
