Grateful Client

David Coolidge was a great attorney to work with in managing my DWI. I have never had any previous offenses, and had no idea how to navigate the justice system. I reached out to him within a week of being charged, and he was able to get my limited driving privilege and provide step-by-step checklists... for all the steps to come. He was also initially very affordable. The case took over a year to come to trial, and then almost another year to go through appeals court. David was confident that I had a sound case based on his extensive research and experience, so I felt comfortable moving forward with the appeal and paying the extra fee. Best money I have spent. I was aware that the initial trial was probably going to go negatively due to the structure of North Carolina law, but it was an excellent decision to move forward to an appeal with an idea of what the State had in mind for a case. Overall, his office staff was prompt in response, his research and presentation were performed exquisitely, and my experience was about as seamless as could be possible.

Very happy.

My student legal department referred me to David. I was facing some serious allegations involving my ex-gf. David represented me in court and on campus. He managed to have all charges dismissed. David always answered my questions. He responded to my text messages. He believed in me. I would re...commend him to anyone facing criminal charges call him.

Sexual Misconduct Student Defense

I reached out to David for assistance defending myself in the student conduct system related to allegations regarding sexual assault. In our initial meeting, David was very personable and seemed to handled my case as an individual. After working with him to get all of the information, he was very sup...portive and knowledgeable about what I should and should not include in the case. In addition, he was extremely helpful and knowledgeable with working with our student conduct system didn't seem to want to accept a specific witness of mine. I was comfortable with keeping him informed of any new information presented to me and any information that could help proving my case. During case prep he was very thorough with the information as well as helped me with my personal statement and go over how to present information. During the hearing, he was very helpful with allowing me to do the talking (which was beneficial during this case), but also informing me of important points to hit or questions to ask. He was able to easily point of flaws in my accuser's argument and deliver a powerful and impactful closing statement on my behalf. The findings came out in my favor and I believe David was a huge part of making that happen and I am so fortunate to have him help me clear my name. Excellent attorney.

An Invaluable Resource

David assisted my family when my teen-age son had a legal issue. He was excellent in his interactions with my son, reminding him of the legal ramifications of bad choices, but providing the support needed to address those issues. He is incredibly responsive (weekends, nights) which is what is cri...tically important when facing a criminal charge. While we hope not to need David's services in the future, I would highly recommend him to anyone needing legal counsel.

I'm so thankful.

I cannot say enough about Mr. Coolidge. I was facing very serious criminal charges last year and he managed to work out an amazing deal that allowed me to complete a bunch of community service in exchange for my case being dismissed. He kept me informed throughout the entire process and I always fe...lt like I was his most important client. Thank you for helping me out.
