Posted by Damaris | December 09, 2025 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Great attorney, great person.

Personable and no nonsense support and advice. I felt instantly that I was in good hands. No one can ever tell you how you'll feel going through something as serious as a DUI, but David will equip you with knowledge and provide a sense of comfort at one of the worst times of your life. My family i...s forever grateful.

On top of it all!

David was a wonderful lawyer. He contacted me, assured me he could assist in my DWI case & did a fabulous job. He reminded me of everything I needed to do to make sure I complied with all the requirements in a timely & efficient manner--and he's a really nice guy! I greatly value his representation &... highly recommend him

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
