Knowledge and Dedicated

I had the fortune to choose David Boyle as my lawyer in a traffic case. He explained the process to me and really made the ordeal a lot less scary. I could tell by his interactions with colleagues that he is highly respected. I got a fair result for my situation and am very satisfied. The price was snacking for the service provided. Would use again if needed and would definitely recommend to friend and family.

Try this lawyer

Mr Boyle was diligent and through in the handling of my case. He kept me updated and informed along the way and was never too busy to take my calls. Mr Boyle did not give false reassurance but was factual with information of case. Mr Boyle also made payments attainable to meet my financial status.

Absolute best attorney!

Mr. Boyle is hands down the best attorney I’ve ever come in contact with! In not just one, but two cases that I was sure to lose; he fought for me and won both! He is very attentive, very quick to respond, and has unbelievable knowledge of the law. He was up front with me and very honest with what he thought the outcomes for my cases would be and he was right! He never made me feel like just another case and he helped me get through this with upmost confidence. If you want the best outcome possible for your case, along with extremely fair pricing, your first call needs to be David Boyle!

I hired David for a probation case involving my son. The probation office was asking for two years prison time. After thoroughly reviewing my son’s history, David was able to negotiate day reporting and no prison time.

BEST LAWYER EVER

David Boyle is Highly Skilled, i was going through a serious criminal case soo serious that i even settled with accepting 3 years of my life in prison. He told me he would try to go for 6 months in a pdc in prison, i came to court for a pre trial conference expecting 6months or maybe even worst, Mr boyle talked to me outside the court room and told me he got me house arrest versus prison for such a serious incident it was litterally an extraordinary result for my situation, if you need a lawyer for anything, this is the man because of him me and my entire family are soo happy and thankful for his expertise i dont plan on ever catching any charges but i know if God forbid David Boyle is my first phone call in any situation, hes worth the money 100% and ill never forget the name David Boyle the one who made it possible for me to able to witness my first child’s birth , #extremelyhappyclient

Great lawyer

We hired David for my boyfriend case he had felonies and probation violation. David went above and beyond when it came to his case. He ended up getting his charges lowered and the other ones dropped. He ended up beating his probation and my boyfriend came home early. If you looking for an attorney to get the job done he is your guy and he cares about you. I would use him again but I hope it doesn’t comes to that. Thank you again David.

Great Lawyer

Mr. Boyle was very thorough with all that I needed to understand about my case. He attended all court appearances on my behalf. My plea was arranged and completed before I went to court. I was completely I afraid and extremely confident in his actions. Great choice for everyone.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Boyle recently resolved a pending case I’ve have holding over me for the last 3 years. He worked diligently with the District attorney to lower the charge. I was more than pleased with his help. He went overboard and asked for a first offenders which we received. So in this case I was able to go from a felony charge to a misdemeanor. Thanks Mr. Boyle you have been a life saver.

Excellent Attorney

I had a chaotic situation and faced a heavy penalty. David communicated well and kept me up to speed. He was able to reach a negotiated plea deal that allowed me to continue on with my life. Would recommend David and Crawford & Boyle to anyone.

Top Tier Attorney-- Call him now.

Mr. Boyle was able to get a favorable outcome for me on my DUI case. He took the time to explain the legal system in detail and was available when I needed him. He was able to get my charges reduced to reckless driving, which takes a skilled attorney. If I were you I would go ahead and give him a call. He is reasonable, listens well, treated me with respect, was honest, and did what was in my best interest. He is a true professional. I talked to several other attorneys before hiring Mr. Boyle and they either seemed shady or just out to take my money. Mr. Boyle is the opposite of those things. He did his job extremely well from start to finish and went above and beyond. Thanks Mr. Boyle for helping me out of a situation that could have ruined my life and career.

Very thankful... here’s why:

Mr. Boyle dealt with an inordinate amount of delays and rescheduling. Professional as it gets, and when our family needed updates and information Mr. Boyle was more than happy to spend time informing us of the specifics. I’m no expert about the law or legal counsel, but I couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Posted by Rodney | July 17, 2021

The Best way to go.

If by chance situation occur when you need a lawyer, there are basically 2 routes you can go when hiring a lawyer. You can pay a metiocre lawyer and get unsatisfactory results or you can hire the best lawyer and get results that will have you visioning a perfect future for yourself because the future is possible due to making the right decision by hiring Mr David Boyle. Unfortunately I had the pleasure of witnessing what a hired mediocre lawyer could not do for me and my case. That lawyer I care not to mention his name was dismissed of his duty of representing me. I then hired Mr David Boyle. I have to say that decision is one of the best decisions I have made in all 40 years I’ve been on this planet. He is a great Lawyer and I highly suggest that if you are in legal trouble and need One of Georgia’s best representing you, Mr David Boyle is definitely the lawyer to choose to represent you. Thank You David.

Client

I would like to thank Mr. Boyle for handling my case in a timely manner. Mr. Boyle and his office staff worked with me to resolve the issues that I presented to him. Thank you for your time.

Posted by Tyson | March 26, 2021

Money well spent.

I've hired Mr. Boyle for 3 different cases. A DUI, a VOP, and a battery charge. I avoided jail for the DUI, he got me work release on the VOP, and the battery was dismissed. He does his absolute best. When covid hit and my dorm was locked down, my wife texted him and got a response at 11pm. He got me released 2 days early. If I need another attorney, he will be the one I hire.
