About David

David became an associate member of the firm in January of 2003 and was later named a Partner in March of 2006. David is at home in the Courtroom and has therefore concentrated his area of practice to the areas of criminal and domestic work. Since joining the law firm in 2003, he has quickly established himself as one of the top criminal defense attorneys in this area. David has defended a multitude of criminal cases ranging from simple misdemeanors to serious felonies. He also practices domestic work in the Chancery Courts of the 25th Judicial District. David knows that any domestic disputes produce a range of emotions and he prides himself on taking the time to listen to what his client needs are and what can be done to achieve those wants. He encourages his clients to mediate their differences before proceeding to Court, but when mediation fails David becomes a zealous and aggressive advocate for his client. In addition to his practice as an attorney, David has served as the Municipal Judge for the cites of Atoka, Mason, and Munford in Tipton County since March of 2005. This position was formerly held by Judge Weber McCraw prior to his appointment to the Circuit Court of the 25th Judicial District. David was also recently appointed as the Municipal Judge of Moscow and LaGrange in Fayette County in 2008 & 2010. David was raised in Somerville and graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Mississippi with a degree in Banking and Finance in 2000. David later attended The University of Mississippi Law School and graduated in the winter of 2002.
