So glad we hired Mr. Salter

If you are in need of a criminal lawyer in Gainesville I highly recommend David Salter. A year ago my son faced felony charges and, as you can imagine, we were feeling extremely stressed and anxious. He was the third lawyer we interviewed, and both my son and I felt almost immediately that Mr. Salter... was the best fit for us. We felt he cared about helping my son and seemed very knowledgeable and competent. He also charged us a flat rate that was actually less than the retaining fee quoted to us by the other lawyers. When he saw my obvious relief, Mr. Salter explained that he looked at facts surrounding the case and charged us according to the amount of time he estimated would be needed to successfully resolve it. I remember as we were leaving his office it felt as though a tremendous weight was lifted from our shoulders. Mr. Salter has provided professional, reasonable and exceptional service. He patiently and promptly answered all of our questions and ultimately was able to negotiate a deferred prosecution agreement. My son has just completed the agreement terms and all charges have been dropped (again, a tremendous relief). I strongly advise you to hire David Salter as your lawyer.

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.
