David Barnet Ackerman

I was incarcerated and had been on probation prior to this incarceration when Mr. Ackerman was still a judge and had placed me on misdemeanor probation. This time I was facing federal charges and I asked my father to speak with Mr. Ackerman regarding my case. Being from New York we had some common g...round and he was so kind and helpful to my dad regardingy case even though it wasn't necessary to hire him based on his advice. My father Robert Militello really enjoyed the time spent speaking with Mr. Ackerman and gave him a book about New York as a gesture of gratitude and friendship. Thank you kindly Mr. Ackerman god your help, Gratefully, Greg

This is one of the most if no the most honest and helpful attorney I have ever spoken with. He is not concerned with draining your bank account and does not keep information from you that would allow you to help yourself. He has one the best legal assistant I have ever spoken with and she is happy ...to answer questions on the phone before you are even a paying customer. She gives you real information that can help you and doesn't beat around the bush. He is a good man with a good heart as well and he puts his heart into your case. He involves himself fully and will take all the burden and pressure of you. He will show up for you anytime you need him and will give you insider information about what to expect and he is the only attorney who has ever given me judges schedules and told me their personalities. He is very respected and was an honest and fair judge for many years. I consider him my attorney and have gone to him on 3 occasions for advice though I did not need to hire an attorney thanks to him. I actually feel bad and I hope in a way I wish I had a reason to use him now because I want to actually be a paying customer. He will work with you on the price and it's obvious that his focus is never on the money. I would not use anyone else in town except Barry Baroset but his price tag is about 3-4 times David's. He is a rare and dying breed of attorney and I hope he takes a protégé under his wing so his knowledge and approach at the law is passed down. I would love to sit and just talk with him about his time serving in Pensacola because he has been around so long and has been involved in many issues that matter greatly. He knew my grandfather and actually represented my grandmother in their divorce. My grandfather was a criminal defense attorney as well and they both highly respected each other. He has such a knowledge of the legal system as well as a vast understanding of the politics that surround it.
