Absolutely the Best
There is no better criminal defense attorney than David Botts. He has represented me on felony and misdemeanor cases with remarkable results. Mr. Botts genuinely cares about his clients and he is a great person and a true professional. David Botts is simply the best.

He always gets you the best representation
David is extremely knowledgeable and great at negotiating what's best for his client. He got me straight probation and no community service for being arrested with 3 pounds of pot. I think anyone in a similar situation to mine should hire David Botts to defend them.
