David Cunningham Review

David Cunningham represented me on a criminal felon possession of a firearm case,and did an outstanding job representing me and I received probation. Davids' tactics and communication was excellent, and not only did he do a wonderful job it's seems as though I met a friend in the process. I would rec...ommend David to represent anyone, because of his experience and straightforward attitude, you know you'll be represented properly. Thanks David for my freedom and the time and effort you put into my case to help me get the best outcome...

The best

I asked around from family and friends if they knew any lawyers that were very good. One of my family members referred me to David Cunningham . I sat and talked with David about my situation after just showing up to his office . I had court the next day , and he said if you need me I will be right t...here . The next day David was there at court with me . He showed up every time and really explained the process step by step . David worked hard throughout the entire process and even got a judge to do something that he had never did before . Also he got my case dismissed at Grand Jury . David is good at what he do and is an amazing lawyer .

An angel of Hope

I am a true believer that God sends us angels when we are at our lowest point and all hope seems lost. David Cunningham is that angel. If you’re looking for an attorney there are over 2,500 criminal defense attorneys in Harris County alone. If you’re looking for a highly skilled, nonjudgmental, ex...traordinary defense and presentencing attorney then David Cunningham, who has been practicing law for over 39 years is your go to attorney! From beginning to end he always showed compassion, empathy and kept us well informed of the court proceedings and how the case was progressing. David guided us with his case strategy and always made himself available for calls and text messages, he certainly is one the most attentive individuals I have had the pleasure of meeting. His extensive knowledge of the law certainly allowed the outcome of the court proceedings to go in our favor. David is truly one of the best attorneys in Texas! He is intelligent, knowledgeable, honest and will do his absolute best to ensure the court rules in your favor. Should you ever find yourself needing representation from attorney with integrity and professionalism then David Cunningham is the man to call.
