    Review David Mitchell

    Very knowledgeable and professional

    Posted by

    Mr. Mitchell represented me in an auto accident claim against a very uncooperative insurance company. Mr. Mitchell acted in a very professional, courteous, and ethical manner. He was very knowledgeable of the court system and laws in the case. He kept me informed throughout the process. He was quick to return calls or answer emails whenever I had questions or concerns. I felt that he had my best interest at heart during this rough time. Mr. Mitchell was able to secure a very favorable outcome on the case. I hope that I'm never in need of this type of assistance again....however, if fate puts me in that situation again, I will definitely ask Mr. Mitchell to represent me.

    Wrongful death case

    Posted by

    David Mitchell took on our case at the very last minute and he did an extremely well job !!! He is very personable and keeps you updated at all times!!! I would most definitely recommend him!!!

    Recalled Medical device

    Posted by

    Although I no longer live in Arkanas, I called David after disappointing calls to lawyers in my area regarding a recalled medical device and a second surgery. David's firm was not handling my particular recall but was able to recommend a firm in Jonesboro. I was very happy with this firm and David stayed involved in the case until settlement. Although he was not the lead lawyer, David called and emailed regularly to make sure I was satisfied with the law firm and explain every aspect of the case as it developed. My entire experience was very positive and the settlement was more than satisfactory. I am so grateful for David's recommendation and involvement. I highly recommend David Mitchell to anyone needing a knowledgeable, conscientious, honest, capable and caring lawyer in a personal injury case.

    Excellent Legal Service

    Posted by

    He has settled several disputes with agencies that have been impossible for me to resolve on my own. He has always proven very knowledgeable but careful and precise in his recommendations and judgement in approaching my problems. One case involved an insurance company who refused to honor my claim---which was resolved in my favor with total payment of the claim. The second case involved excess charges from a cell phone company which was again resolved favorably. I have also consulted him on other lesser issues just for his advice, this advice has always been concise and helpful to me. I think Mr. Mitchell is an outstanding lawyer who exemplifies the professionalism and ethical conduct that serves to enhance the reputation of the legal profession.

    I highly recommend David Mitchell!

    David has helped me twice...once in 1997 and again in 2013. He will fight for what is right...even against a big corporation ...and with great results. He does not back down! David works extremely hard and knows how to help his clients.

    Great Lawyer

    Hard Worker

    Posted by

    David Mitchell worked very hard with me on my case. He stayed in contact with me and let me know what I needed to do every step of the way. If I ever had any questions about what was going on, I knew I could call and get ahold of him on the same day and get my questions answered. I felt comfortable with the whole process thanks to him.

    I endorse this lawyer's work. He handled the Tupak Shakur nightclub shooting in Arkansas and made an excellent recovery for his paralyzed client. He led the way in Arkansas fen-phen litigation winning huge recoveries for his clients suffering from primary pulmonary hypertension caused by ingestion of the diet drugs. You can see from his photo he is honest and straightforward.
