David Franks did everything he said he would do, never got my hopes up, and exceeded my expectations. They say you shouldn’t judge people by first impressions and appearances, but it is just human nature. During my first courtroom appearance I noticed how poorly clients were dressed, and then I started to notice the lawyers and how poorly they were dressed, not holding themselves as you would expect for someone representing you. I would have been upset if some of those lawyers were representing me. When I saw David Franks in court, I knew that everything was going to work out. David Franks has a very established persona, confidence and an appearance that he had already won. His persona in court as well as his appearance, to me, seemed better than anyone else.

Everyone I met or talked to associated with this law practice was exceptional. I had a feeling of being cared for. I have to say that I couldn’t be more pleased with David Franks and his practice. My first impressions of him were 100% of what I expected and he was worth every penny or more. He achieved the best possible outcome I could have hoped for.

I would recommend David Franks to my family and friends if they were ever arrested for a DUI. Thank you, I can’t say it enough.

testimonial

When I initially met David Franks, I had no idea what to expect, as I had never been in a situation like this. Stereotypes about lawyers abound, but fortunately none of them fit David. I was very upset at myself, the loss of my car, and the potential outcome of my situation. David concisely explained my situation to me, was kind, not judgmental, and showed tenacity about defending me. He is honest and straightforward in his approach. I felt I could trust him. He seemed genuinely concerned about my situation. I left our meeting feeling much better. I got some piece of mind knowing David wasn’t going to just “settle”, but fight for my case.

I was concerned that his staff would treat me with some thinly veiled contempt—this was wrong. His staff treated me with respect.

Finally, the end result was better than I expected, and compared to others in similar situations, turned out to be a less severe charge and penalty, with less impact to my driving record, and which allowed me to travel in Canada. David Franks did a good job for me, and exceeded my expectations regarding my results in my case. I am sincerely grateful for his help, and will recommend David to anyone who is in need of his expertise.
