Dave Argentar
Content Strategist & Consultant
As a content strategist and consultant for Rain BDM, Dave blends his lifelong passion for writing with the insights about the practice and business of law he gained during his 16 years as a commercial litigator. Except for his family, Bruce Springsteen, and the Chicago Cubs, he loves nothing more than transforming the silence of a blank computer screen into a symphony of words.
A successful legal career and partnership at a prominent Chicago law firm notwithstanding, Dave decided he could no longer deny who he was, so he left his practice and began openly writing full-time in 2009. In the decade since, he has written well-over 10,000 pages of website copy, blog posts, newsletters, magazine articles, and other marketing collateral for lawyers, law firms, physicians, and other professionals across the country. He also served as Deputy Director of the Illinois Supreme Court Commission on Professionalism from 2011-2013.
Dave prides himself on his ability to listen, learn, and understand each client’s unique voice, vision, and value proposition. To him, these are indispensable aspects of crafting content that, as one of his clients once said, “sounds exactly like what I would say, but much better.”
Besides his affinity and talent for content writing, Dave also has an innate ability to retain terabytes of useless trivia, which he deployed to win an episode of “Jeopardy!” in 1998.
