Mr. Leake is a professional, dedicated attorney with an extremely professional, dedicated staff. Every question expeditiously and accurately answered whether via phone, e-mail or in person. He and his staff willingly take your case as if it was their own to keep your stress level at a minimum. I highly recommend him to anyone needing his services.

Attorney Leake was the criminal attorney for my son. He guided us through the process, keeping us up to date as well as answering any questions . He negotiated a plea agreement that was favorable. The charges were very serious!I believe he is the best in his field! After the sentencing he had another case on the docket however he made time to call and ask if we understood the decision and i truly appreciated that.

I needed a local lawyer to represent me in ongoing issues which involved emergency custody of my child. After consulting with a few trusted advisors I decided to contact the law office of David Leake as he was recommended as a young and upcoming attorney who has been busy building a solid reputation in the local legal community.
On meeting David I was impressed with his knowledge of the law and with the professional way in which he conducted business. I asked him to represent me, and I have never regretted that decision. As I stated he has been professional and knowledgeable but also very personable and caring about my case. His office manager Laura is fantastic to work with when scheduling and really provides her own personal touch to the law firm.
During the time I’ve been represented by David he has been involved in some high profile cases locally, as well as, at the State level, and has argued in front of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Yet I never felt like he didn’t take my case as seriously as he took those cases. In fact I am continually amazed at his level of commitment at every meeting.
If you’re looking for good representation, go elsewhere. If you’re looking for great representation, David is your man.
Highly recommended!

In October, my daughter was incarcerated in Somerset County Jail for a holding violation and few outstanding warrants that she had not taken care of in Philadelphia. While in jail, she was actually referred by inmates to David Leake. Being new residents of Philadelphia and to Pennsylvania in general, and having never hired a defense attorney, we were petrified.
I called Attorney Leake and he went to see my daughter right away. The professionalism of David Leake and his assistant goes beyond words. They were efficient, always kept me in the loop and were able to resolve much more for my daughter than expected. Without him, she would still be in Somerset jail.
My only wish is that I could have met him in person, to let him know how much we appreciated his extraordinary expertise, professionalism and assistance.

My husband and I never imagined that we would ever be in a position where we would need a defense attorney. Finding ourselves needing legal representation left us feeling desperate, apprehensive, and insecure. After meeting with Attorney David T. Leake, we were confident in his abilities and trusted him with our case.
At our consultation, Attorney Leake’s first priority was to hear my husband’s explanation. He then informed us that he had already reviewed the charges against my husband and was prepared to briefly explain the gravity of the situation and the penalties under the law. Attorney Leake concluded our meeting by providing us with his educational background and achievements, his professional experience that qualified him to represent our case, and his assurance that he would diligently work to provide the best defense for my husband.
Attorney Leake and his staff were always approachable. Questions or concerns regarding our case were always welcomed and messages were returned in a timely manner. He was always straightforward and honest and kept us abreast of any developments in our case.
We truly believe that he provided us with an excellent defense resulting in the best possible outcome that exceeded our expectations.
I would recommend Attorney Leake based upon his professionalism, as an attorney who cares about his clients, and on the reputation of his firm.

Mr. Leake is a smart, dedicated, attorney. One of the few willing to go the extra mile for his clients. Mr. Leake has taken my DUI case through the appeal process including our recent oral argument at the Pennsylvania Supreme Court on fundamental constitutional rights. While most attorneys shirk this challenge, Mr. Leake thoroughly researched the issues and was very well prepared and enthusiastic to carry this through. I highly reccommend and commend Mr. Leake for his services.

David Thomas Leake took the time to squeeze me in for a consultation with only an hour notice. I was truly impressed with just how helpful and understanding he was just from the initial phone call. He was also able to give me information on a level of my understanding when I was there discussing about my divorce and custody. I left there feeling very confident with the information given to me. After the consultation was over, there was not a single question or concern that I had previously that went without being answered. I got more out of just one consultation with him than I have talking to other Lawyers multiple times in the past. I was beyond impressed from the gate and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for an outstanding, helpful, understanding, well rounded and very knowledgeable attorney!

I consulted Attorney Leak because of concerns about firearms law and possible loss of my carry permit after a dui. I couldn't have made a better choice! David was very knowledgeable about the subject , as well as a very nice friendly guy! He even went so far as to call the sheriff for additional information. David will be my attorney from now on.
