David Douthit is a seasoned attorney known for his courage in taking on cases others shy away from and for his ability to turn those challenges into successful outcomes.
David is deeply committed to his clients, particularly those navigating difficult legal situations. Throughout his career, he has found the greatest professional pride in helping people others have overlooked often taking on complex or sensitive cases that others might reject. His legal philosophy is grounded in humility, persistence, and the belief that everyone deserves strong, thoughtful representation.
He is a proud member of the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association and the American Association for Justice, and he actively contributes to Virginia’s legal community through advocacy and peer collaboration.
David credits a lifetime of excellent teachers and mentors both inside and outside the classroom for shaping his values and approach to the law. He is the oldest of three siblings, including one sister who works as a paralegal and another as a claims adjuster, giving him a unique appreciation for both sides of the legal system.
When he’s not in the office or courtroom, David enjoys rock climbing and biking pursuits that reflect his drive, focus, and love for the outdoors. He also finds deep fulfillment in time spent with his two daughters and is always seeking opportunities to learn, grow, and push new boundaries in life and law.
David approaches each case with curiosity, grit, and a genuine desire to help others move forward guided by the principle that mistakes are part of being human, and that growth comes from how we respond to them.
