This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

excellent lawyer

I have to say that I am so impressed with the hard work that David Moody has put in my case. I was pretty terrified because I was in a situation and i was facing some jail time and David Moody didnt see me as just a case or criminal. He saw me as a mother of 3 girls that made bad mistakes. Even thou...gh he was on vacation he still was calling me helping me and working on my case. I couldnt ask for a better lawyer! He treats his clients with the up most respect. Lawyers like him are hard to find. I would recommend him to everyone!! He is simply the best.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
