William David Burrows

I was arrested for a DWI in October 2017 and immediately called David. After our initial conversation, I knew he was the one to handle my case. After receiving the bac score of .13, he gave me a 30% chance of beating my case. While waiting on the courts, I was offered a plea deal that sounded very en...ticing. I slept on the offer for a few days but ultimately decided that having a slim chance is better than no chance so we took it to trial. David was happy to inform the judge and we proceeded to court. He was magical in the courtroom and as a result, WE received a NOT GUILTY verdict. I am very appreciative for all David has done for me and now I finally have control of my life once again.

1st DWI, I was pulled over and arrested. I was scared and didn’t know what to do. Mr. David Burrows helped me through the process and provided me with all info and support needed to stay calmed until my trial. He was always there from day one until the end of the trial. At the end of my trial, my c...ase was DISMISSED NOT GUILTY!!!! he answers very quickly by Text message to any questions or concerns. He is very fast at responding by Text message. If you are in a DWI situation, reach out to David. He is the best DWI lawyer and will do his best to make sure your case is Dismissed.

Not Guilty via Trial by Jury which I owe my total gratitude to Attorney David Burrows. This was my 2nd DWI, the first being over 25 years ago, but that doesn’t matter in Texas as once convicted, remains on your record permanently. My situation was unique in that I was pulled over in Dallas County (Co...ppell) over 4-years ago & performed the FST (Field Sobriety Test) which I did not do well so was taken to jail where a blood draw was performed. Initially, I thought this would be a career ender as I was in my early 60’s @ the time & if it became public knowledge, was looking @ being out of a job for the remainder of my life @ my age being a consultant. I hired an initial attorney who promised many good options, but we talked rarely & only met in person twice in a 3-year period. Fortunately for me @ the time there was credibility issues from the Forensic Blood Expert who tested the blood, so unable to use initial test results which were well over 2.8, so the 1st attorney was able to get this evidence thrown out, but being my 2nd DWI was ordered to install the Interlock Device on my vehicle. https://www.dallasnews.com/news/crime/2016/10/14/thousands-dwi-cases-potentially-risk-credibility-dps-lab-expert-questioned Fast forward 4-years later & the case dragged on. The 1st attorney would just get ‘pass’ slips in hopes that the arresting officer would move on, meanwhile still dealing w/Interlock daily. By this time, I was tired of dealing with the riff-raff & monthly Interlock/reporting fees ($100) so asked that we might go to trial as the alternative was 2-years’ probation, heavy fines, more interlock etc. Fortunately, the 1st attorney said he was not a trial lawyer & referred me to David Burrows! This was the best thing that happened in my life in a long time. Things started moving fast & favorable. I had an initial meeting with David & we reviewed all kinds of police records, dash-cam/body-cam videos that I had never been presented by the 1st attorney. (He said there was no video?) After the interview & review David immediately came up with a winning strategy. I had multiple physical issues both with knee surgeries, lower back issues & eye surgeries (detached retina, LASIK, cataracts). His strategy was to debunk the FST videos showing that I was incapable of performing such physical test. Once we chose to go to trial, The DA decided to retest the blood, which by this time was 4-years later? The results were 2.7 BAC, astronomical. We met many times prior to the trial & strategized the defense. Things I thought were pertinent he identified as unnecessary & focused on just the FST & Blood Test evidence. The day of the trial David was very keen on identifying those in the Jury Pool that would be favorable to my case. David’s opening arguments were that my conditions were a major factor in the case & that my physical disabilities limited me from being able to perform FST regardless. He would debunk the Blood Test results as astronomical & tainted being 4-years old as he indicated in his opening statement. The trial was grueling, but David was thorough is his cross examination, creating much doubt in the arresting officer’s testimony as well as the testimony of the Blood expert. I also took the stand & David was able to keep the details on physical incapability’s as well as my age. Closing arguments were key as David again recapped all the issues of the evidence presented created ‘reasonable doubt’ & identified everything he said he would on opening arguments. The strategy was key & the jury came back after 2-hours of deliberation with ‘Not Guilty’! As mentioned in many of the prior reviews, David is very accessible & returns VM & text promptly. He listens carefully to you & genuinely shows interest in all aspects of the case & treats you more like a friend than a client. I would not hesitate to contact David for any legal issues dealing with DWI. He has been a true blessing.

First DWI, was pulled over on Friday night. DWI cases are always complex but I was very lucky to find David. I was so nervous and shocked with incident but after meeting David, he explained all the things in details to ease me out, helped in every stage of case and responded quickly on every even sm...all queries which being the first case I had at several times. He undoubtedly is the best lawyer! I am fortunate that I found him to get positive results on my case and will strongly recommend him to anyone needing legal help.

While attending college in Dallas, I was arrested for a DWI my sophomore year. After the case had been dragged along into my senior year, my initial lawyer referred me to Mr. Burrows. At this point I was about to graduate and had been offered a prestigious job in Washington DC; however, a major part ...of this job required my being able to drive. After a year and a half of being offered no plea bargains, Mr. Burrows and I prepared for a trial that would put my ability to accept my dream job in the hands of a jury. Mr. Burrows was easy to contact and quick to respond, as we frequently met while he was gathering more evidence and weighing our options. A week before the trial date, I called Mr. Burrows and asked to meet him to go over the evidence and discuss the strategy of our defense. As I was walking in the room, Mr. Burrows already had the prosecutor on the phone and was negotiating a deal. He denied the initial offers that would've affected my ability to drive, knowing how much that meant to me and my career. He hung up the phone and looked at me and said, "I think we got something." After about 15 minutes, the prosecutor texts him to offer a deal that, without going into specifics, would not affect my license and would look far better on a resume than a DWI. It was pure magic. At the hearing where I entered my plea, even the judge seemed impressed with deal. Needless to say, I owe Mr. Burrows far more than any legal fee, because he truly altered the trajectory of my career, and possibly my life as well. I owe Mr. Burrows a debt of gratitude and I highly recommend him for his services.
