Outstanding Job and person

David Bigney and his staff are outstanding. He reviewed my case with me in detail outlining every possible outcome (good and bad). However he kept me very optimistic about having a favorable outcome. David was very gracious and patient with the many questions we asked. His staff was courteous with ea...ch interaction. They were very responsive to phone calls, emails and conference scheduling. My case began with 4 felony charges, then down to 3 felony charges and finally was dismissed. If it was not for David and his due diligence with my case the outcome may have been catastrophic. All I can say is “Thank you David and staff”. If you want someone who’s in your corner and gives you 110% I would definitely contact David and the Bigney Law Firm. God Bless you and your staff.

Truly an amazing lawyer

David was the first private attorney that I had and he will be the only one I hire. I was skeptical at first but he definitely followed through with his end of the arrangement. I was very pleased with the outcome not because wether the verdict was guilty or not guilty but because while I was incarc...erated he kept in touch with me just as well as my fiance every step of the way. David has made a name of himself in my eyes as not only a criminal defense lawyer but a true genuine friend. I will keep him and his lovely family in my prayers. THANK YOU SO MUCH DAVID!!! You speaking for me and defending on my behalf means more to me than you will ever know....

David Bigney exceeded all expectations I had of him.

Mr. Bigney better be at my wedding because he saved my family!!!!! My boyfriend hired David Bigney almost two years ago. I wasn't pleased about the price but the charges were serious (my boyfriend's face was all over the news) and I now realize that if you want the best you gotta pay the price and B...igney is the best! I'm not saying he is the best just because my boyfriend was found NOT GUILTYYYYYY but because David was there for US every step of the way. I say "us" because David always acknowledged my presence at every meeting! He always answered my questions and made sure to ask if I had any questions for him. He answered and returned all our phonecalls. He never seemed bothered by our millions of questions nor did he ever rush us off the phone or out of the office. With Bigney, you'll definitely feel peace in your heart during difficult times knowing he's going to war for your loved one. On your worse days he'll be sure to say something to make you smile or laugh a little. I will never forget David and always pray that God continues blessing him!

Best Criminal Attorney!!!!

My name is Stacy. My husband Ethon and I retained Mr. Bigney after my husband was set up and went to jail for trafficking and possession of 27lbs of marijuana. My husband was facing the maximum for that charge because In addition to the marijuana he was found with large amount of cash. The minute ...we retained Bigney and had our first conversation I knew we were in good hands. He always remained straight forward and very forthcoming with any information we needed. It's doesn't matter what time it is. You text him or call he will respond to any questions, comments or concerns.(unless he's in court of course). Long story short he got my husband a not guilty plea. He was worth every penny!! I was never dissatisfied with anything that he did for this case. He's the best lawyer guys. Call him for a consultation it won't hurt, you'll see exactly what I mean. And yes I've spoken with a few lawyers before I retained Bigney. So happy with his service.

David Bigney is the Man!

David represented me in a case where my ex tried to screw me by calling the cops and accusing me of some crazy stuff that didn't happen! I was already on probation on another case that I wish David was my lawyer on, so just having the cops called to the house for anything was a violation of probation..., and my ex knew that! I left before the officers got there but with her statement, I had a warrant out for my arrest. To make a long story short I called Davids office the next day and set up a meeting with him for that same day, which was awesome! David put a whole plan together on how he thought we should take on both cases. He had a strategy that he wanted to take so that my VOP didn't end up costing me more time on probation or even more jail time since the chances of me getting bail on a VOP where pretty much slim to none! Not only did David get me a bond hearing the next day after I turned myself in, he actually was able to get me released on bond, then beat the both cases! First the false accusations by my ex, then the VOP! David is the man! If your looking for a lawyer who knows how to handle business, David is the man you go see!
