Posted by Rachel | March 17, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

One of the best lawyers I've ever worked with.

David got me an excellent result on me case. 1 felony and habitual offender status dropped and another felony reduced to a misdemeanor with non reporting probation. He also got my driving on a revoked license changed to a citation that doesn't get reported to SOS. I have already hired him to do my ex...pungement. He's reasonably priced, honest AND he communicates unlike most lawyers

Excellent Attorney

I retained Attorney Sinutko to represent me in a divorce case. I highly recommend him. Mr. Sinutko was extremely attentive to my case. He promptly answered any questions that I had with great detail. Mr. Sinutko achieved a tremendous result for me and I was beyond satisfied. He was worth every penny... that I paid. I would not hesitate to refer Attorney Sinutko to anyone for divorce, custody or spousal support cases. He is amazing!

Just beat my gun case

One of the best lawyers you can find and speak to also get along with. Now he’s like a friend more like family to me now, after this year and a half of fighting for me, and my friend. Help me a lot in life and advices me through everything. My case was dismissed 3 days ago, So excited, God blessed. W...orth every penny I spent. Very reasonable prices.

Highly recommend

Mr. Sinutko is the best lawyer I have ever hired hands down. I spent more than $60,000 with 4 attorneys who landed me in jail simply because they just wanted money and did not care to listen. Mr. Sinutko was the only one who cared and actually took the time to communicate and fully understand my case.... Not only was he able to get me out of jail he also got me a reduction on my sentence. He was thoughtful, caring, and most importantly honest. I highly recommend him!!!!

Rethink your choice

Waited days to receive a response back and some emails were completely ingored, had to do my own calls to find out if I was suppose to appear because I was told wrong twice, paid way more than was agreed upon because nothing was prepared and ready so we got pushed back twice. Please go somewhere else... so you don't end up with an experience like mine.
