Posted by anonymous | March 22, 2017 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Excellent, down to earth lawyer

I was charged with a DUI in October of 2016. When I reached out to David, we called me within 24 hours. He went over the process, gave me his preliminary opinion of my case, and answered any questions I had. This was even before I hired him! After hiring David, he took care of everything leading up... to the court date, kept me updated with any developments, and always answered any questions I had early the next morning through email. We met once to go over evidence and decide how to proceed ( go to trial, or not). At the courthouse, David had another case before mine, and it went long, overlapping with my scheduled time. He expertly juggled both cases until the first one was resolve. He thought on his feet, constantly monitored the many facets of my case, and reacted quickly when they changed. He looked comfortable in the courtroom and even changed tactics mid-trial to my benefit. My case ended up being dismissed.

Excellent Lawyer!

David is an excellent lawyer! I recently got a reckless speeding ticket going 70 in a 45 mph zone. I was referred to David from a family member that also hired him for a reckless speeding ticket. I called for a consultation and new that he was the guy. He's very polite and very easy to communicate wi...th. If you ever have any questions for him he will answer you in a timely manner. I simply told him about my ticket and he told me not to worry. On my court date, he emailed me with the outcome. It was reduced to failure to obey highway sign - much better than a misdemeanor! I am very pleased with the outcome and with his service. He's very professional and his rate is very fair. I highly recommend him! The family member that referred me to Mr. Dischley was also very pleased with his services!

Best representation ever!!

I consulted with Mr. Dischley about my case and just a few minutes into our conversation i immediately decided to go with his representation. Through out the whole wait period of my case he kept me informed on what was going on with my case. He demonstrated a great deal of dedication towards my case ...and myself. When my court date arrived he showed a lot of care and kept going back and forth with the prosecutor to work out the best deal he could get. Sure enough i was not disappointed with the outcome but rather extremely happy. One of my best choices i made in my life for a while. So if anyone is ever looking for someone amazing for legal representation, look no further David Dischey is your man!

Informed, Professional, Down-to-Earth, and Effective

David represented me on a DUI and a Breathalyzer Refusal charge in February 2017. The incident happened in Woodbridge, VA in Prince William County. I had researched and talked to many other attorney's prior to speaking with David. He was extremely knowledgeable about the current practices of LE in th...e area, listened to all my concerns and questions, and ultimately fought and won at court for me. He was able to get the refusal charge completely dismissed and the DUI charge reduced to an "Improper Driving" charge which is only a traffic violation and fine of $100 for my case, resulting in no misdemeanor or criminal charges brought against me or being on my record. He knows the judges and prosecuting attorneys in the NOVA area extremely well and has a good repertoire with them all. I was mainly concerned about how the charges would affect my security clearance and he drafted a letter explaining the situation thoroughly for the adjudication board that was reviewing my clearance as a result of these charges. That letter along with the final disposition of my case resolved all the clearance issues immediately and I am happy to say I was able to keep my clearance with no blemish on my record. He also provided the information on how I could file an expungement request for the arrest records stemming from the charges free of charge. He also offers a greatly reduced rate for handling the expungement for you if he had previously represented you for that charge. I would highly recommend him to anyone involved in a traffic offense or alcohol related charge. He was always available to answer any/all questions I had at any time, he did not try to nickel or dime me on any fees or costs, he was upfront and honest about possible outcomes, processes, and options. His advice was always spot-on and worked with me the entire process (in my case it took about 5 months total from the initial incident until my trial date). I think he is different than most other attorneys in that he is very down-to-earth and common sense about the reality of things. He does not talk down to you or withhold any information, offers meaningful suggestions, thinks outside-the-box and offers solutions/advice that most other lawyers would probably not think of, and overall is a very personable, intelligent attorney. It is a scary situation when you are charged by the LE, just or unjustly, and when it seems that LE and court systems are just out to make money anyway they can, it can feel like the odds are stacked against you and there are no recourses but to just plead guilty. Hiring David Dischley to represent you would be a very wise move. If nothing else, he will listen to your situation free of charge, offer meaningful/useful advice, and give you a fair price for representation.
