He’s Simply The Best

When I first met Mr. Burrows, I was going through a rough time in my life. I got 2 DWIs, and an evading charge in a matter of 5 months. I felt helpless and at my lowest. Since the very beginning, he assured me he was going to try his best and that everything was going to be alright. Anytime I would c...all, he would always answer. If he couldn't, his team would reach out to me and they were always so respectful to me. Mr. Burrows referred me to some groups that would not only help the case, but also help me start my journey of sobriety. I can't thank him enough for that. When arriving to court, I couldn't help but notice how respected he was. I was facing 5 years in prison, and Mr. Burrows got me down to probation and some community service. I recommend him to anyone that's facing a DWI. He's simply the best.

Best of the best!

Mr Burrows and his staff were great to work with. They put my biggest fears at ease from the get go and navigated me through the process, taking care of all the heavy lifting. Mr Burrows worked hard for me and negotiated terms with a better outcome than I expected. He and his team were understanding,... knowledgeable and went above and beyond.

Exceptional Lawyer!

I was recommended by a work colleague to Mr. Burrows and I couldn’t have been more thankful for the referral. Mr. Burrows helped me every step of the way of my DWI case and his assistant was very helpful as well!

A great lawyer with fair fees

Mr. Burrows took the time to answer all my questions not only at consultation, but thru the whole process. He communicated directly, not through some assistant. He explain my legal situation for my case and what to expect and got me a good deal.

ALL I CAN SAY IS, WOW! EXCELLENT ATTORNEY NO DOUBT!

I received a DWI in Collin County, which most know is the second hardest county in Texas to deal with and was possibly facing jail time. Officers did not have a lawful reason to pull me over and with a Motion to Suppress, David got my case dismissed, yes I said dismissed. David and his staff were v...ery professional at all times and available whenever I had a question. Let me tell you I did not expect to win this case because of it being such a difficult county and am very grateful for all that he did on this case.

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."

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.
