This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

You could not pay for a better lawyer!

My brother was arrested in January and was just released this week. David was his public defender. I am an attorney in Texas. David was amazing! He knew the system and advocated valiantly for my brother. He assisted us in so many ways during this process, I'll never be able to thank him enough! ... Trying the case was risky, but David succeeded in getting a result that was amazing short of trial -- and that takes talent and familiarity with the court and the system. Rest easy if he is in your loved ones' corner.

Chose David Weck!

I can't thank him enough! I think the definition of Justice is David Weck. There is no other choice, if your thinking about a lawyer...he is the answer!

Thank God for David Weck!

I was charged with an armed robbery, that I did not commit; but, I couldn't afford a private attorney. I thank God that Ass't Public Defender David Weck was assigned to defend me. He fought for me, at a jury trial, and all charges were dismissed. Carla Nicole Koester Salisbury, MD

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.
