David M. Burns, Jr.

I have dedicated my career to aggressively defending individuals who have been accused of crimes in the federal and state courts of Georgia.

I have a proven record of successfully defending serious felony charges, including:

Armed Robbery

Acquitted of all charges including Armed Robbery and Attempted Murder:

State v. Edwin Fripp

Armed Robbery charges either dismissed or reduced prior to trial:

State v. Rakeem Gallop
State v. Herbert Stevenson
State v. Hayward Fields (Bulloch County)

Aggravated Assault

Acquitted at trial

State v. Robert Lewis
*Kidnapping: all charges dismissed before trial including Kidnapping, Armed Robbery and Carjacking

State v. Marcelus Scott
*Trafficking/Sale/Possession with Intent/Possession of Controlled Substance

State v. Keith Roberson
*Homicide by Vessel

Your case will NEVER be passed off to an associate after your fee has been paid.  I will represent you from the beginning of the case though the resolution and I will fight for your rights through every step of the process.

Each case is different and presents unique challenges.  Please contact me at the information listed below.
