Details

The founder of his eponymous law firm, David E. Swanson is a highly regarded criminal defense attorney, and he devotes 100% of his practice to that area of the law. He has been certified as a specialist in criminal law by the Board of Legal Specialization of The State Bar of California, and he has been admitted to practice before all California state courts since 1991.

Mr. Swanson’s firm is located in Newport Beach, California, and his client base is made up of people from Orange County and other parts of the state who have been charged with having committed misdemeanor or felony offenses. The types of cases that he has worked on have included driving under the influence, drug possession and distribution, homicide, sex crimes, weapons violations, assault, domestic violence, fraud and other white collar crimes, and robbery. Mr. Swanson has been able to obtain many positive results for his clients, whether in the courtroom through acquittals and charge dismissals or outside of court through his negotiation of favorable plea agreements with the prosecution.

Mr. Swanson has the honor of being one of a very few select group of attorneys who have been appointed to represent indigent defendants in the Harbor Justice Center, part of the Orange County Superior Court system, in cases where if a conviction is obtained, a defendant could be facing the death penalty. His superior track record has also earned him a 10.0 “Superb” peer review rating through Avvo. After he received his Juris Doctor cum laude from Western State College of Law in Irvine, California, Mr. Swanson served for several years as an attorney with the Orange County Public Defender before entering private practice in 1998.
