DO NOT HIRE THIS LAWYER

Had to file a grievance, hired him to handle a ticket from out of state. Got a notice of suspension, they told me it was handled, and BAM suspended license. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY.

BEWARE

I have had the same experience as the others. I paid to for him to appear in court on my behalf. He never went and I received a letter stating that my license would be revoked. When I contacted him about this he finally paid the court fees but never went to court not did he attempt to have my tick...et reduced although he said it was done. Now I have a speeding ticket on my record.

Do not hire for traffic citations!

I have read several other reviews on here and they coincide with my exact experience. I hired this lawyer for a speeding ticket and expected it to be taken care of. I paid his fees and waited for the letter in the mail of reciept of payment. I followed up when I had not heard of or received a notice ...that this matter had been taken care of, that he had continued the ticket. Then another couple of months go by and I received a letter from NCDMV that my license would be suspended INDEFINITELY if I did not pay my fines. I called to complain, only then did he reduce my ticket BUT did not pay my court costs! This is a pain in the rear and I don't recommend anyone hire this lawyer for any case as he does not follow through and could put you in major trouble!!!!!

BE VERY CAREFUL IF YOU HIRE NHIM

I paid Mr. Gurganus in full last year for a speeding infraction I got. I received a letter from NC DVM stating my DL will be suspended for not taking care of my ticket. I find out he has done nothing but taker my money. I will report this to the NC Bar.

Be careful if considering retaining for traffic infraction.

I retained David Gurganus to represent me for a traffic infraction in August 2015. I paid in full his fees and all fines well before my initial court date in October 2015. He continued the case 4 times and did not appear on the 4th appearance causing my license to be suspended. I would highly advi...se not retaining this law office.

Experience

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2023.

Disbarment issued in NC, 2023

updated on 04/24/2023

Disbarment is the most serious penalty for a lawyer. If this attorney is currently practicing law, you should contact the North Carolina State Bar to understand the reasons for disbarment.

Suspension issued in NC, 2018

updated on 11/09/2018

Suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Censure issued in NC, 2016

updated on 08/16/2016

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
