About:
David was born and raised in the Roanoke Valley; the son of a Registered Nurse and a Roanoke City Police Officer, he spent his childhood in Salem and attended Glenvar High School. After graduating, he went on to attend Virginia Tech where he received degrees in both Finance and Accounting. After graduation, David worked as an accountant in both the public and private sectors, but decided the law was his true calling. He went on to attend Washington & Lee University School of Law, where he graduated with honors at the top of his class in 2010. David began his legal career as a Judicial Clerk for the 23rd Circuit of the Commonwealth of Virginia. In 2011, David began working and training with his mentor, Richard Lee Lawrence. After Richard’s passing in March of 2012, David took on a variety of cases and gained knowledge and experience in his own practice. In late 2012, David accepted a position with a small firm in Roanoke, Virginia where he worked until joining GBSR Attorneys in 2015 David is a litigator who loves being in court on any type of case from civil and business litigation to family and criminal law. David has a passion for cases that most attorneys would find exceedingly difficult or overly-complicated. He is a problem solver and a true advocate for his clients, both in and out of the courtroom. If a problem can’t be resolved in settlement, David is an aggressive litigator. David has tried cases across the state in Juvenile and Domestic Relations, General District, and Circuit Courts. He frequently appears in Roanoke City, Roanoke County, Salem, Botetourt County, Bedford County, Franklin County, Craig County, Alleghany County, and Montgomery County. David has handled civil, criminal, and traffic infractions in Federal Court as well. In his spare time, David enjoys being with his Wife and three children, is an avid follower of Virginia Tech Sports, and enjoys playing guitar and watching live music.

"Outstanding Legal Support with Integrity and Compassion Navigating a divorce is never easy, but working with David and Jessica made the process far more manageable and less overwhelming. From our very first meeting, their professionalism and calm, confident demeanor gave me the reassurance I needed during a very difficult time. The communication throughout the case was exceptional. I was always kept informed of what to expect, what steps were coming next, and what my options were. Every question I had—no matter how big or small—was met with a prompt, clear, and thoughtful response. What truly stood out was their depth of knowledge. It was clear that they not only understood the law inside and out, but also how to apply it strategically and compassionately to my unique situation. Their guidance was always realistic, balanced, and in my best interest. David and Jessica were genuine, honest, and incredibly supportive. I never felt like just another case—they treated me with respect, empathy, and care. Their integrity and transparency gave me confidence that I was in the right hands. If you’re looking for a divorce attorney who combines legal expertise with heartfelt support, I cannot recommend David Robinson, and his wife Jessica, highly enough. They helped me move forward with clarity and peace of mind."

"I as well as my immediate family and multiple friends have benefited immensely on multiple occasions from the legal expertise and representation provided by both David and Jordan . Everything from Estate settlement, Divorce,Child Custody, Civil issues and even the unfortunate DUI's and criminal representation as well. Not once were we left unsatisfied or feeling like we suffered inadequate representation. I can guarantee any future need for representation will be handled by David or Jordan as they are simply amongst the best at what they do. I can confidently say that any negative experience anyone has had is probably due to unrealistic expectations or they simply didn't follow the guidance provided by David or Jordan. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
