The Lawyer that never sleeps !!!

When I got arrested at 3:00 am I called my brother from the holding cell at 5:30 am and he immediately conferenced David on the line. As soon as I spoke to him he alleviated all my fears and told me what to expect for the next few hours. When he arrived he was able to negotiate my felony down to a vi...olation and I was out of there in a flash. His contact information definitely needs to be shared with family and friends in case of emergency.

False Arrest

David Kitsch handled my case with care from the begin to end. He spoke to the ADA the way I would. He's very good at his job and will always keep you updated on what's going on. A very good lawyer...

Felony

David was an amazing attorney, he knew exactly what he's doing and what exactly needed to be done. He got me out of a felony case with no problem, would definitely recommend him

Extraordinary

I have nothing but the best to say about David Kirsch. His professionalism, knowledgeable, honesty and most of all straightforward approch is unparallele. He gave me his honest opinion, all while offering advise and guidance throughout the whole legal process. I honeatly feel I would not have been a...ss successful in my legal endeavors without him.

My DWI resolution

David was awesome, he was friendly yet professional, he provided me with a complete explanation of what to expect with the proceedings. David was able to reduce my charge of DWI to a violation and generally put me at ease with his confidence. Thank You
