If you’re searching for the right attorney to handle your criminal matter, you’ve likely come across many defense attorneys advertising themselves as “former prosecutors.” In many cases, this means they spent only a few years working in a solicitor’s or district attorney’s office early in their careers. At Williamson Legal, that’s not the case.

David Williamson—though most clients simply call him “Dave”—brings over a decade of experience as a prosecutor before founding his own practice. During his time with the Alcovy Judicial Circuit District Attorney's Office and the Cobb County District Attorney’s Office, Dave prosecuted and litigated thousands of cases, ranging from minor offenses to the most serious felonies. He has tried more jury trials than most attorneys practicing today, with experience spanning charges from speeding to murder. Before leaving the office in 2024, Dave served as Deputy Chief Assistant District Attorney, where he supervised all trial attorneys, trained new hires, and upheld the highest standards of legal practice.

Now, Dave leverages his extensive experience and deep institutional knowledge to provide clients with informed, practical, and strategic counsel. His unique understanding of the criminal justice system, combined with strong professional connections, enables him to deliver zealous, compassionate, and effective representation. At Williamson Legal, you’re not just hiring an attorney—you’re gaining a trusted advocate who is dedicated to guiding you through every step of your legal journey.

A little more about Dave: He graduated from the University of Georgia in 2010 with degrees in Business Management and Political Science. He then attended John Marshall Law School in Atlanta, where he graduated early as valedictorian of his class.

Outside of work, Dave enjoys spending quality time with his wife and two young sons. He’s a Georgia Bulldogs football fan, an avid traveler, and, when time allows, loves fishing along the Gulf Coast shoreline.

At Williamson Legal, Dave combines his professional expertise with a personal commitment to his clients, offering representation you can rely on when it matters most.
