Other controversies were docketed in a US court of law, proceeded to trial, and resulted in important decisions for MNEs, including cases involving transfer pricing (Bausch & Lomb I), the foreign tax credit (Ampex), Competent Authority matters (Yamaha), the definition of 'manufacturing' for Subpart F purposes (Bausch & Lomb II), foreign currency (Carborundum), and intellectual property rights (Exide/Exxon).

David has been described as "one of the top five tax controversy experts in the US", and he received recognition as a "leading attorney" in US tax litigation by Chambers US, and as one of the world's top 25 transfer pricing specialists.
