Lazy and incompetent
Zero stars if I could.!!!! This was my husband’s court-appointed attorney, and the experience was completely disappointing. I truly believe that even if we had paid him, the same lack of care, effort, and basic competence would have shown. In six months, he never once went to visit my husband in co...

You get what you pay for
I was super guilty and the da was not trying to give me a break. I ended up being sentenced to 6 months with 3 years of probation. He put it off as long as he could and with my priors and the charges, I was dealt a fair hand.

Even though I was guilty as fu** David put his heart and soul into my case . He never denied a phone call, if it could not be handled over the phone he ALWAYS made it in to see me. Best Lawyer EVER!! from the C family

horrible
Put no effort or time into my case. Told me what I wanted to hear never did anything he said he would do. Went to trial with him biggest mistake of my life and I lost huge chunk of my life because of it. Do not hire him

Don't Hire Him
A simple speeding ticket cost me $500 more than the original ticket and he managed to get me traffic school in the process. Worst attorney I have ever had to deal with.
David Rick Nelson's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this tough street fighting lawyer. David Nelson deals with big cases and tough hard core clients. Just a few months ago he won an acquittal in a gang related murder case in Solano County hands down despite the client making the representation unnecessarily dramatic .(2018) Many of his court appointed clients are desperate to blame the system, the judge, the DA or their lawyer. I have always found Mr. Nelson to be available, knowledgeable and a very hard working attorney."
