David Weinstein Fought for Me and Won — The Best Defense Attorney You Can Have!"

David Weinstein is simply outstanding. From start to finish, he was completely honest, professional, and deeply committed to my case. He fought for me with incredible skill and got my case fully resolved in my favor. I always felt supported and informed, even through the most stressful moments. If ...you need a criminal defense attorney you can truly trust, David Weinstein is the best choice. I am forever grateful for what he has done for me.

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.
