David D. White
Criminal Defense Lawyer
Yes, some firms advertise more than us, with more billboards and TV ads than us. But chances are, those lawyers you see on those same billboards and TV ads will not be the person or people you have access to once you hire those firms.
At The Law Offices of David D. White, we have spent 20 years working hard for our clients in Austin to develop a reputation as one of the most respected Criminal Defense Law Firms in Austin, TX.
Why do clients, judges, and even opposing attorneys hold us in high regard? Because we put our clients first.
When you hire us, you get direct access to David White, our managing partner. He will meet directly with you in person, over Zoom, over the phone, or even over text. While you will also work with his team, you will never be “passed over” to someone with little experience or insulated from talking to David about your case. David takes a much more “hands-on” approach with our clients than other criminal law firms in Austin tend to do.

Arrested for a crime? You need a skilled defender in your corner. I’m David D. White, founder of the Law Office of David D. White, PLLC. I’ve been defending the rights of central Texans for nearly 20 years. From misdemeanors to state and federal criminal charges, I’ve helped thousands of people receive the best outcome possible.
While many of Austin Criminal Defense firms will boast hundreds of reviews and make bold claims about how they will get you results, we STRONGLY encourage you to read some of those reviews yourself. Then we’d encourage you to read our reviews and determine for yourself which of those reviews were written by REAL people facing REAL legal problems like you are.
We also encourage you to ask yourself, what type of law firm will likely give me a higher level of representation in my criminal case; a law firm with hundreds of broad, generic (dare we say fake) reviews OR a firm whose clients are grateful enough for their legal outcome that have left a genuine endorsement of their legal counsel?
With your future on the line, put your trust in your firm that leaves a REAL track record of excellence and a reputation for results,

DUI is only one area of criminal law. A criminal defense attorney will have experience not only working on DUI cases but also in other areas of criminal law. It is best to hire an attorney with experience in different areas of criminal law as many DUI cases often involve other criminal charges.

Your actions after being stopped for a DWI can either make or break your case. You should be polite and follow the instructions given to you by law enforcement. Do not say more than you need to.
