Knowledgeable and gets the job done!

David represented me and was wonderful. He’ll get to the truth and REAL justice will be served. I’m extremely satisfied and would recommend him as a defense attorney

He is determined

Mr.Nimmo is very determined to do everything in his power to do what he can for his clients. In 2018 he did everything he could in my case and I'm greatful that he was my attorney.

This guy is a joke

How is it even ok to let this guy who used to be the county probation officer for years and loved teaming up with the DA to put your butt in jail become the public defender? You read that right. He was a PO and didn’t give no chances cuz he just wants to see all junkies go to jail instead of helping ...them has now became your attorney??? The one the judge appoints you? How is that even legal? I call him Mr. 180 cuz even for a simple charge that should only get you 30 to 60 days in jail he works out a “deal” with his bestie Beth Willis bka needs some d!€k in her life District Attorney and always gets you 180 days! That’s right people. Two nerve pills? 180 days. Shoplifting? 180 days. That’s the best you could do David? He replies “well Beth wanted 200 days but I talked her down for ya!” Oh not to mention he trying to get some chick to take a 12 YEAR SENTENCE for a, get this, SIMPLE POSSESSION. Bahahaha you got jokes in the courtroom this morning huh? NOT FUNNY MR. 180!

Awesome man who gets the job done right!

David was my probation officer for a while. Throughout my probation period he watch me change from a addict who broke the law and didn't care the consequences into a person who not only stopped drugs but who had also changed her mind set and way of living. He was very good about allowing me to be hon...est no matter how bad it was and instead of jail he made me take a mrt class which changed my life. He seen more than a junkie criminal when I walked into his office. He's never been my attorney however he did stand up for me in court and told the judge about the changes I had made which got me 6 months good behavior probation that as of now I'm off and free. If I ever need a lawyer I'll choose David. He is the type that stays in contact with you and keeps you up to date about your case. I trust him and I hope you will to. Hire David Nimmo you can count on him giving his 100% best.
