About
I have been a licensed attorney in the State of Illinois since 2003. I began my legal career as a an Assistant State's Attorney in the County of Kendall, State of Illinois. In 2006, I opened my private practice and have successfully represented hundreds of clients in matters ranging from divorce and family law issues to criminal defense.I have a unique perspective in criminal defense from my experience as a former Assistant States Attorney. I have a strong background in litigating both family law and criminal matters. I believe that in order to successfully represent client's in criminal and family law matters one must know what the available options are, have a very thorough knowledge of the applicable law and be thoroughly prepared.

I hired David to represent me as my attorney. He provided exceptional service at a very reasonable and fair price. Unlike many professional service providers, David charges fair fees, takes the time to know you and your situation, and is easy to contact. What a breath of fresh air!! I would wholeheartedly recommend David should you need legal representation.
Working with David was an excellent experience. He always responded promptly to my calls and e-mails. He helped me understand the circumstances of my case, thoroughly explained my options, and gave me realistic expectations of its outcome. During my court appearance he guided me on what to say and do, and afterwards he made sure I knew what steps I needed to take next. I feel that he worked hard on my case from beginning to end, and I am extremely satisfied with the results he delivered.
David was very professional and was always available for questions. A police officer gave me a ticket for speeding that could of been a felony charge with the state and given me jail time. David negotiated with the State's Attorney and told him about my background and how I gave back to the community especially working with kids and that this action was not typical of my behavior. The State's Attorney reduced it down to a misdemeanor and a very reasonable fine. I'm very grateful that I went with David. I received multiple letters from other attorneys but after reading his letter I knew he was the one and it was the right decision. Thanks again David, greatly appreciated!
I hired David to represent me in my divorce case, and immediately found him to be very personable, professional and fairly priced. He always responded quickly and knowledgeably to my communications, and always gave constructive recommendations. David was always supportive and saw the divorce case through to a very positive conclusion for me. I would highly recommend David Lee's services for your legal representation.
When David spent an hour on the phone with me on a holiday evening I knew we were in good hands. He explained the entire process of navigating the legal system in our particular case and reassured us of all potential outcomes. He was always responsive and answered questions thoroughly and clearly. I would recommend him with no hesitation at all.
From the start, David was an excellent communicator and I immediately knew he was passionate about his work. Whenever I had a question, he made time to talk and respond to my emails. He clearly explained my case and laid out what to expect. With his vast knowledge and experience not only as a defense attorney but also a prosecutor, David developed a plan to resolve the case. Once his plan was in action, he was very persistent in his communication with the State's attorneys office. I was extremely satisfied with David's work and the final resolution.
I write this with the hope that whoever reads it, and has need for an attorney, will find it compelling to the point that they contact Mr. Lee. My initial inquiry was based on the fact that he is a former Assistant State’s Attorney, believing that he would have an excellent command of the law. He absolutely does. And when Mr. Lee heard my story, the challenges my situation presented, he asked what I felt were thoughtful questions, and gave candid feedback that made me feel he truly understood and wanted to represent me because he believed he could make a difference, not just a buck. Mr. Lee’s professionalism is characterized by how well he listens, the insights he shares into “how things work”, and the respect he shows when emotional and financial drivers may impact how you view the legal process. On several occasions we disagreed, and Mr. Lee not only listened but expressed sympathy in his response, even though his experience and knowledge of the law was sometimes being challenged. I’m very grateful for that. You truly want someone like him in your corner. The way I look at the representation I have had from Mr. Lee is this: you have a choice to make, a choice that may determine financial, parenting, or other issues. The best thing you can do is align yourself with someone who has the experience, integrity, professional demeanor and relationships that will represent you best. I’ve seen how other attorneys respond to him, and he to them, and believe that his reputation has been built on how he has represented individuals like myself. It is with my deep appreciation of how he has worked on my behalf that I recommend Mr. David Lee.
I hired David for a very complex case. He didn't judge me, he showed empathy, and made every part of the process extremely easy to understand. He listens to your story; concerns, offers not just realistic, but, also logical advice, and doesn't try to persuade you into something that you aren't comfortable with or don;t completely understand. Not only did David provide exceptional legal counsel, he also provided me with extensive knowledge and prepared me every step of the way. David is very intelligent and is on your side, he puts forth a lot of extra effort & I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone seeking legal assistance. David is not only a lawyer, but also a kind hearted person that doesn't implant unrealistic ideas in your head. He will fight for you and be honest, clear, direct, & concise. David is truly an exceptional attorney!
n late December of 2017, a loved one was arrested in Aurora Ill. Having been a Police Officer and Homicide Detective for the past 28 years in Michigan, I know the importance of having a spotless record for future employment and career advancement. I found David Lee and my search for an attorney ended. having worked with attorneys my whole career and having interacted with competent and incompetent attorneys, i knew immediately that David had the experience, knowledge, understanding and down to earth sensitivity needed to handle the case. Six weeks later the case was resolved and the outcome could not have been any better. Take my advice and hire the attorney a Police Officer would hire for his loved one. David is absolutely the best.
I hired David on as my attorney for a custody case that should have never gone as far as it did. I was served with papers and 6 weeks later, it was on trial. The other attorney put a rush on it, trying to complete the case before I could hire an attorney. I found David online and he seemed to have good reviews. After meeting with 3 attorneys, I hired him. His first day on was pretrial. He couldn’t believe things were as rushed as they were. 2 months later, the trial ended with the opposing counsel being directed out- a task not easily accomplished and a verdict that is rarely given. David was always straight forward and honest, which I appreciated. I never felt like steam was being blown up my “you know where” like many attorneys. He was also great about allowing a payment plan and staying in contact. All around a good experience.
