Testimonial

"Dave was genuinely cared about our case. He helped alleviate all our concerns every step of the way. He also displayed his talent by catching our opponent in a lie with his cross examination. I would definitely recommend him." Our Past Client
"I have to say, after using David Simmons as my criminal attorney for the past ten years, I would recommend his services to everyone and anyone who needs a great attorney that will fight for your rights to the door. Personally I can say, and prove, that Mr. Simmons is the best attorney in Florida. Again, thank you for everything Dave! If anyone has any questions about your experience and services PLEASE tell them to call me!" Tim Fogle
"My experience with Dave Simmons was very positive!!! He was very professional and knowledgeable about many aspects of the law. He constantly kept me and my family apprised of what was going on with my case. He took his time and was very thorough, not rushing through any of it. Consequently, he was able to get me a full acquittal of all charges. He is now working on expunging my record, which would have never been possible without his expertise in the law. I would HIGHLY recommend using Mr.Simmons in any criminal case.' J. M.
