DUI charges dropped!

While my son was away at college, he got arrested for DUI. I did not know any attorneys in Orlando, but as I did my research, David Bigney was highly recommended. At our first meeting he reviewed the police report and said the police did not have probable cause to start a DUI investigation. He filed ...a motion to suppress and the case was dropped! He is a well respected criminal defense attorney and simply amazing!! The man is brilliant!!

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.

He's the man

David Bigney turned my case into a miracle. From the moment I met him I just knew I could trust him, and sure enough I was right. I was arrested and charged with 4 felonies, a combination of firearm charges and a first degree felony drug charge. My window of hope and opportunity was at a bare minimum... right before meeting David Bigney. I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life in prison or at the very least become a convicted felon. Now I'm a free man and am able to write this review on my bed, not in a prison cell. All charges dropped! David and his amazing team fought long and hard for me. My parents and I had a million and one questions and he answered every single one with honesty, patience, and respect. Setting up phone or face to face conferences was hassle free and we felt welcomed with open arms each and every encounter. David Bigney is truly dedicated to his clients. I highly recommend hiring him if you want that second chance in life, that's what I was granted. I will forever and ever be grateful for him representing me in the court of law. Thank God for David Bigney, he saved my life, my future, and my relationship with my family. There's absolutely nothing more we could've asked of him, he came through with a home run!

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!
