About David
Biography
I have a wide-range of experience from working as: (1) an attorney with a defense law firm in Birmingham, Alabama, where I was assigned to many complex civil law suits; (2) an Assistant Attorney General for the State of Alabama handling death penalty appeals; and (3) a US Army lawyer (JAG) now retired (including two deployments to the Middle East).
Since 2007, I have been in private practice in Prattville, Alabama. My law firm focuses on criminal law, bankruptcy, and family law. Let me put my experience to work for you!
