Florida Personal Injury / Florida Workers’ Compensation Lawyer

Federal criminal cases are extremely difficult to win. Many good trial attorneys, attorneys who regularly get acquittals in state court, have never gotten an acquittal or a dismissal with prejudice in federal court.  Acquittals in federal court are as rare as hen’s teeth. Attorneys who've gotten an acquittal in federal criminal court are in the 1% club. I have multiple acquittals and dismissals with prejudice in federal court.

Attorney David Magilligan opened his own criminal defense law firm to provide people from all walks of life with high-quality, affordable legal counsel. After graduating from law school, he worked as an assistant state attorney in the Miami-Dade County State Attorney’s Office. In that role, he witnessed more people receiving poor criminal defense representation from disengaged lawyers than he’d like to admit. At the core, he seeks to provide client-focused criminal defense with an emphasis on clear communication and finding the most effective and practical solution in every case. He works directly with clients from the initial consultation through the resolution of the case. He is accessible and returns all messages within 24 hours. He invests a great deal of time early in the case helping each client understand the options and objectives of each client and present a realistic assessment of how the case may play out.

As a lawyer, my greatest task is to provide superior advocacy to my clients.  For my criminal defense clients, my goal is to viciously attack each element of the State's case, and to identify and exploit each and every constitutional violation perpetrated by law enforcement.  The State of Florida has the burden of proving each and every element of the crime, and I make sure that each of my clients is in fact innocent until proven guilty.  For my injury clients, treatment and medical attention take priority over all else.  Once they are receiving the proper medical care, and on the right road to recovery, then I make sure that whoever is responsible for their injury is held so.  Unfortunately, accident victims are not always able to achieve 100 percent physical recovery after an accident.  In the State of Florida, we seek to compensate accident victims for their injuries, and when possible, we aggressively pursue the maximum compensation for our clients' injuries, and we don't rest until that maximum recovery is obtained.. I am a South Florida Native.  I grew up in Broward County, and I spent most of my childhood soaking in the culture and learning about South Florida's history.  I have a unique passion for helping people, and a special connection to the people of South Florida..
