He is a great attorney, he will fight until he gets what he's wants out of your case

David is a great guy, he will help you as much as he can to get your charge dismissed or reduced. He kept my license from being suspended, and no points on my license..that's all I wanted and he ot it done. Thank you David..I will be using you again if needed

Outstanding lawyer

He is a great guy that fights for his clients. I was looking at losing my LIC and he was able to get almost all the charges dropped. He always responds in a timely manner and is very professional. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. His prices are reasonable as well.

MY DUDE!!!!

He’s a great attorney from what I have seen him do so far with my cause, he communicates when it’s necessary, his pricing is reasonable. Loving it so far, and for the one saying he’s “a wolf in sheeps clothes” well..... I NEED A WOLF in sheeps clothes to go into the trenches and fight for me. Wouldn’...t have it any other way!!!!!

- Case Dismissed - Need I Say More?

I couldn’t be happier with the Criminal Defense services contracted with Mr. Koontz. I was arrested In a domestic dispute, and although I was not the aggressor, I was facing simple battery charges. Seeking representation, other attorneys sounded unsure of whether or not they could get my charges dro...pped, Mr Koontz not only took on the case with a confident (yet realistic) approach and had all charges completely dismissed without even having to go to trial. All I had to do was an anger management evaluation and appear briefly In court a couple times and Mr Koontz took care of the rest! Might I also mention his rate for services was half most my other quotes and 2/3 the price of next most affordable attorney I found. I highly recommend Mr. Koontz as a criminal defense attorney to anyone. He was more than helpful every step along the way of my case and should I ever require a good defense attorney again, I know who I’m calling!!!

This is my guy!!

First let me say i don't normally write reviews. i had a criminal case going on, while i was going through a divorce. My stress level was off the chart. David represented me in the criminal case. When i tell u he was there for me. When i would text him he would always responds. Really instantly ...or before the close of business, but no pressure David. i ended up having to have an anger management evaluation. which went well. He found the person to give the evaluation. Biggest thing after completing evaluation. He went to court on my behalf with out me even being present, and got the case dismissed.

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.
