Deserves 6 stars - Best Lawyer! A+++

I needed a lawyer who would listen, care and defend. I was charged with two criminal offenses that could have seriously impacted the rest of my life. I had a lot to lose and needed someone that would take my case seriously and I could have not been any happier with my decision to hire David Schultz. ...Dave did such a great job in advising & helping me thru an extremely difficult time for me & my family. He was always accessible & gave me a tremendous sense of security about my case. With Dave's outstanding professionalism and passion, both criminal charges were dropped, which to be honest was a very long shot. The evidence against me was substantial but with Dave's recommendations, eloquence and professionalism, he was able to get both charges dropped. Needless to say, I cried when I got those amazing news. I couldn't believe that was accomplished and I will never forget everything Dave has done for me and my family. It was a very tough case and he nailed it! Thank you Dave for professionally navigating me through everything & enabling me to have a prosperous future!! You are simply the best out there.

Professional and a great gentleman

Dave represented me on my first DWI case. He won my case for better result for me. He is very knowledgeable of how the law works, on the top of things, very cool, friendly, understanding, reasonable, and over all a great gentleman. He doesn’t give you unrealistic hope, but inform/advice you on what ...might happen and work toward the best result for your case. Dave is NOT like these some greedy and inflexible lawyers. I am super satisfied by his work and i will recommend him to anyone. Thank you so much, Dave.

The Five Star Lawyer

Smooth talking and looking for my best interests, David Five Star was able to prevent confinement after my second DUI with the refusal. With his skill in high diction and connotation he was able to make a deal with prosecutors suggesting that I instead had to do interlock for two years. This allowed ...me to continue my career and manage my business.

Highly recommended

From the first conversation, I felt at ease. Dave is calm, cool and collected. He is always armed with a plan of attack with your best interest in mind. He often reviews what your expectations are and continues to exceeds them. Thank you, Dave.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
