Great Lawyer!!

There are so many great things to say about David Hitchens. He is loyal, educated, compassionate and will do his absolute best to help navigate you through your case. He won a highly contested custody case for my family. I would recommend him to anyone with family law concerns. A++++

Mediocre at best

Stay away from this guy if you have a custody case, messy divorce, or any type of Family Law case in general that requires actual litigation. I sat in court with this man representing me, who failed to express to the judge the nature of the case and let the other attorney set the agenga, who failed ...to submit paperwork to the judge following the hearing, and who let the time limit to file for review expire even though I was twice weekly contacting him for an update. I have since found another attorney, and will likely have to request additional time from the Judge to adequately prepare. I would imagine David does quite a bit of bankruptcy law, and other non-family law type work since he does not specialize in Family Law. Maybe he excels in those areas.

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.
