About
I handle family law, probate and estate matters in Kansas and Missouri. My primary practice area is divorce. I am a trial attorney with an emphasis on crafting a resolution outside of the courtroom before putting the decision in the hands of a judge. But when push comes to shove I provide my clients with a competitive edge in the Courtroom. I have been selected as a Super Lawyers Rising Star – 2017, 2018, National Academy of Family Law Attorneys Top 10 Attorney Award – 2017, 2018, National Academy of Family Law Attorneys Top 10 Under 40 – 2015, 2016. I am married and have two children and I reside in Johnson County, Kansas.

I highly recommend using David if you find yourself needing a divorce lawyer. He was so patient with me and even consulted with me for free while I was deciding to even file or not. Once I did file, he was responsive and compassionate to answer all of my questions and concerns. I knew he was trustworthy and would fight for me and my sons. My situation was complex and he crafted a creative solution that helped me get what I needed and deserved. I cannot thank him enough. I've sent several friends to him as well.
David Fairbanks assisted my wife and I with our estate planning. As parents of young children, we were uncertain about what to do and nervous about securing our future, as well as our children’s future, in the event something were to happen. Mr. Fairbanks was wonderful throughout the entire process- he was professional, thorough and took the time to discuss all our questions. He not only took care of everything at present, he gave us advice for adding/updating our plan as certain life events take place. We are incredibly pleased with Mr. Fairbanks’s services and highly recommend him every chance we get.
I have worked with several lawyers in the past and always felt very uncomfortable when meeting with them. Mr. Fairbanks is very down to earth and always made me feel at ease around him. He was very detailed in all his work and assured me anytime I felt uneasy about upcoming events in my case. Custody disputes/cases can be very stressful. The thought of losing time with your child that you love more than anything in the world can cause worry and stress. Mr. Fairbanks went over everything with me and what could possibly play out and made sure I was very aware of what could or could not happen next. We had some strange circumstances that arose days before our trial and he even took the time to call me on a weekend to go over the situation. He had spent time to make phone calls to people to help find answers to remedy "the situation". He was very confident in what the outcome of our case would be and worked very hard to make sure that outcome happened. I was originally referred to Mr. Fairbanks from a friend who had used him and she highly recommended him. I was not disappointed! I had 6 witnesses that were a part of my case and they all talked about what a good experience it was and how he seemed very personable and was easy to talk to. I have probably rattled but it's hard to sum up and put into words how amazing Mr. Fairbanks was. I went into the case despite knowing what a great dad I was still worried about losing time with my son. No custody case is ever a great experience but he was ahead of the opposition at every moment and when curve balls were tossed he knocked them out of the park. I walked away with getting my son close to 87% of the time! I was totally blessed to have Mr. Fairbanks representing me and have referred him to many others. Thank You for everything you did for my son and I
Mr. Fairbanks did an excellent job with my estate planning. He was very knowledgeable on the subject, explained things in great detail, and I would highly recommend him. I've sent friends for family law, childcare worksheets, etc. and they've been very pleased. He doesn't simply tell you what you want to hear, but what you need to hear. A true fiduciary.
David represented me through a difficult divorce and child custody battle that lasted almost two years. I faced an uphill battle from the beginning because of many repeated false allegations against me. I always wanted equal rights as a parent and David helped me get this. David was always quick to respond to any questions I had about case related issues. He is very accessable to his clients. During divorce, things can get very drawn out and there are times when things can become very stressful. David is very good about focusing on the things that are most important and he is able to provide peace of mind and reassurance throughout the process. He worked with the GAL and opposing counsel to ultimately find a middle ground that worked well for our family. He saved us a great amount financially by using negotiating strategies to ultimately get me the things I felt were most important. With David's help, I now have frequent time with my daughter and have equal say in decisions regarding our child. I appreciate all David did to assist me and my family during a difficult time.
David is a very knowledgeable Attorney in Family Law. He is a very straight forward and caring person. While with David I felt like my situation was personnel to him. He always gave me the best advise and was always able to weigh risk vs benefits. I have recommended him to family and friends. When he was dealing with my family member the best possible solution was made for a very difficult situation. Without his help, my family member would not have any time with his child. If you are looking for someone to stand up for you, hire David!
Excellent experience. David was thorough, honest, answered questions quickly, and set realistic expectations for my case. Exactly what he believed would happen happened. He never guaranteed it, but always based his answers upon his experience. I could not have asked for a better experience dealing with a bad experience. Thank you, David for everything.
David was as professional and helpful as anyone could ask for. He was very clear and concise as to what the charges against me entailed, and the result of the case was the best case scenario for me. He was always prompt to inform me of any updates concerning my case, responsive to any and all questions I posed, and he made me feel very comfortable and confident letting him handle my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for excellent legal representation.
David was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and responsive in communication. I was very satisfied with the handling of my case (dismissed) , and would recommend David to anyone who is looking for great counsel at a very reasonable price. 5 stars from me
