A straight forward and hard worker

David was very thorough and explained things to me in a way that was clear and concise while also being realistic and straightforward in all encounters, which was very appreciated. Highly recommend

The Best Attorney I’ve ever Worked With

I found Mr. Burrows to be savvy, attentive, and diligent. He follows up and checks in frequently at every step of the process. He was always available directly for any questions I had, at no point was he ever MIA. He’s a top performing specialist, and it shows. My case was pretty straightforward,... a blood test over 0.15 with an additional charge. I thought it didn’t offer much wiggle room to an attorney for use for leverage to defend me. Despite that, he was still able to negotiate an insanely good plea deal for me, getting the classification reduced, many fees and fines minimized, jail time reduced to time served and the additional charge dropped. I honestly don’t think any attorney on Earth could have negotiated a better deal than that. At no point did he say “Good Enough” and move on, he kept pushing and pushing for better and better circumstances for me. I sincerely felt like he exhausted all possible options for me to the maximum, he didn’t leave anything unexplored or unchallenged that would improve my situation even down to the last few seconds before my case was resolved. In my case, the amount of money he saved me in fees and fines alone was easily more than his flat fee. If any of my friends or family found themselves in trouble with a DUI I would immediately send them to Mr. Burrows without hesitation, it wouldn’t even be a question.

Reasonable and honest

I hired David for my DWI out of Collin County. He’s usually working out of McKinney court house and have great relationships there. His fees are very reasonable, I ended up pleading guilty but the consequences were less severe. I also hired him to file for early termination of probation. I had a 6 ye...ars probation sentence which I have completed 2 years of. With the help of David we filed a motion for early termination of probation and it was granted. David will stay in contact with you via text messages all the time.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked on cases with David Burrows since 1981. I have watched him perfect his skills until he is acknowledged by his peers as the expert in DWI jury selection. He has consistently won more DWI trials in a single year than most other lawyers win in an entire career. I urge anyone who is looking for a DWI attorney to go watch him in trial. He will probably have several cases set for trial on any given Monday morning. See for yourself."
