David Ridings went above and beyond while handling my case. He was great to work with and cares about the people he is representing. Ultimately my case was dismissed and I could not be happier with the outcome. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a good lawyer.

I highly recommend David Ridings whenever you are looking for the very best criminal lawyer. It has been my pleasure to know David. David is the most capable, professional, and dedicated lawyer and Godly man I have ever encountered. He is an extremely talented lawyer who quickly emerged, in my view, as the most capable and kind hearted lawyer ever. Even the judge publicly announced, in the courtroom, what an impressive case he made in my defense. His exceptional legal skills are matched by his genuine concern for others and himself, so-much-so, that he motivated other attorneys to perform better

Honestly not sure why so many 5 stars. He was really nice and upfront at first. Totally wasted $3500. He froze in court and wouldn’t let us speak to the judge at all. The judge was very understanding of previous cases and let people explain themselves. I feel if we had the chance to actually plead our case she’d have understood 100%. Followup to make sure charges were removed from the system was a nightmare. He got mouthy and rude after he was “done with us” for what he did we could have found someone less expensive and more understanding. He said he all these connections to get video surveillance

In April of 2018, while visiting a friend in Nashville, I was involved in a physical altercation that led to my arrest for assault. Given my job, I simply could not have a conviction on my record. I had previously never been charged with a crime, so I was completely oblivious as to how the system works.
David was great throughout the course of my case. He answered (or returned) my phone calls, responded to my emails (even the ones in which I was just venting my frustration with the process) and was prepared for court. Thanks to David, my case was effectively dropped, a result that was much better

I am very grateful to have had Mr. David Ridings represent me during a very complex and challenging time. He was always available by cell phone and showed genuine compassion. He is a very skilled professional and guided me through the legal process every step of the way. I give him my highest recommendation.

I got arrested for my first dui a few months back and naturally I was very nervous. David put my mind at ease during the consultation but it wasn't until we got to court that I really knew I hired the right lawyer. From the minute he walked into the courtroom, he damanded respect from everyone in the room including the judge. Within a few minutes of talking with the DA, he struck a deal to get my charge reduced to reckless driving and negotiated the terms that I wanted. If you want somebody that cares and will fight for you, David is your guy.

David Ridings has, time and again, offered me sound legal advice. As a former Nashville Metro police officer, he has special insight into how the law works when it comes to traffic stops, DUIs, and other issues. I've had some pretty unique situations to present to him and he always has solid insight and answers.
