The Best

David was recommended to me as the expert in the field by a previous attorney of mine who is also considered one of the top attorneys in Texas but in a different part of the state. I could not be more pleased with the results. I was facing a 2nd DWI charge with a fairly high blood score. David walked... me through the entire process. His expertise was apparent in every step. He compiled every piece of ammo so that we had a very strong case in multiple aspects were we to go to trial. In the end, David worked his meticulous magic to find a little-known and apparently rarely-used law to get my case DISMISSED. I cannot recommend him enough. If you want the best, you’ve found him.

The True Lawyer’s Lawyer

David was recommended to me by a lawyer friend that works in the criminal system. He said everyone in Dallas knows him as the top attorney and he is liked and respected in the court system. I found this to be most certainly true. David was also very accommodating, very honest, and very fair wit...h price. I am extremely thankful for the magic he was able to work for me and I highly recommend him to everyone.

If you don’t hire David, you’re making the wrong decision!!!

David is the consummate professional. I’m on my first offense, and David has made me feel confident, secure, and informed. He has helped reduce fines and probation time. I had no idea what to do or expect and I have never felt more confident in how to handle my situation. I’m so beyond blessed and th...ankful for everything that he has helped me with. His fees are super reasonable and he constantly communicated what is needed and what to expect. He is a kind, respectful, patient, and understanding man and I’m very fortunate to have found him. He is always available and will get back to you as soon as possible. Even with his busy schedule, he still makes you feel like a priority and your case matters to him. Honesty hiring anyone else would be silly, he is the guy to get it done for you. THANK YOU SO MUCH DAVID!

The Best and Most Professional Lawyer Ever

My husband received his first DUI. I called and spoke with several Lawyers. Mr. Burrows was very honest and never promised us anything. We hired Mr. Burrows and he was amazing from beginning to the end. He was very honest and upfront about what may happen in my husband's case. My husband refused the ...sobriety test and they took his license. My husbands occupation requires that he has license so we were hoping we could beat this. Mr. Burrows worked on this case and we won the license hearing. Ultimately, my husband's DWI case was also won. I cannot say enough about Mr. Burrows. He is a top notch Lawyer in every aspect. Thank you for everything Mr. Burrows.

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."

  • 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.
