"David and I tried multiple cases together dating back to 2006 where we achieved an acquittal for two brothers accused of breaking a man's nose. I have continued to see David over the years in the court rooms around Los Angeles. Having done two full jury trials with David, I can attest that he is a phenomenal trial attorney. He is smart, disciplined and always well prepared. His demeanor is always professional and earns him the respect of the bench and his opponent prosecutors. Someone facing criminal charges would not regret hiring David Canty for their case. He is capable of handling all crimes from DUIs to special circumstance homicides because of his breadth of experience. Whether a small misunderstanding or the most serious of charges, David's skill will allow his clients to achieve the best possible outcome on their cases."

"David is an outstanding attorney and an even better person. I worked on several complex and serious cases where David was representing the co-defendant. Here are my take aways from interacting with him and seeing him in action on a daily basis. He is always the most prepared attorney in the courtroom. He knows his facts and he knows the angles to push for his clients. He would always be 3 steps ahead of the prosecutor on most issues and this benefited his clients immensely. Patience and kindness: David is the type of lawyer to spend extra time with clients to make sure they understood everything and to make sure they felt like he's their advocate. If I were looking for an attorney to refer to a family member, he would be on top of a very short list."
