GOT CASE DISMISSED

Mr. Koontz is the most dedicated, helpful, and speedy lawyer ever! He got my felony case dismissed and was very communicative and answered all my questions from beginning to end. I cannot thank him enough. If you ever need a defense lawyer i highly highly recommend him!!

THE BEST LAWYER IN GEORGIA

If you’re looking for a lawyer who will help you every step of the process, he’s the one. His fee is reasonable and he’s extremely helpful. He responded to every question I had and he was able to answer as well. Professional and timely. He was respectful and willing to work. I have dealt with attorne...ys in the past and he by far exceeded my expectations. The best of the best!

Professional, friendly, and a pleasure to work with.

I had the pleasure of working with David on my DUI case, and I could not be more impressed with his professionalism, dedication, and legal expertise. From our first consultation, I knew that I was in good hands. David took the time to explain the legal process to me thoroughly and answered all of my ...questions in a way that was easy to understand. Throughout the entire case, David kept me informed of any updates and was always available to speak with me whenever I had any concerns. He was incredibly thorough in his investigation of the case and found evidence that helped to dismiss the charges against me. In the courtroom, David was confident, poised, and professional. Overall, I would highly recommend David to anyone needing legal representation for a DUI case. He is a top-notch defense lawyer who is dedicated to his clients and will fight tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome.

Fantastic lawyer!

Well, let me get straight to the point. Brooklyn girl here visiting Atlanta, things got a bit wild. I got myself into some trouble while on vacation, and found myself in a situation I couldn’t get out of. I was not familiar with Georgia law AT ALL, In fact, I was a bit intimidated by it. I needed to... come home and find myself a lawyer, after many phone calls and consultations with several lawyers, I came across David. After one conversation, I knew it was a go! David reassured me that not only will my case be fully dismissed, he will attend my court appearances for me as well! I was so relieved! I had many questions and would randomly send him text messages. David was super responsive, even on his family vacations! He was very thorough, and stuck to his word. My case is dismissed and I am at peace! I am forever grateful for David, and will gladly recommend anyone I know!!

Elite level Attorney

Having been a World Heavyweight Champion Pro Wrestler I recognize top level performance when I see it. David came highly recommended from a friend and exceeded my every expectation. I hired David to help a friend who was languishing in jail and couldn’t bond out. He was incredible!! He took charge th...e next morning and got my friends case in front of a judge and settled by lunchtime. Incredible!! My nickname in Wrestling was”The Total Package”. I know refer to David as”The Total Package” of Attorneys. Thank you David Lex Luger “The Total Package”

  • 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.
