David C. Hardaway

Born and raised in Dallas, David met his wife, Janice, a San Marcos native, while attending classes together at the University of Arkansas School of Law in Fayetteville. After graduating (and with a few stops along the way), Janice finally persuaded David that her hometown was the right place to open a new law firm in 2010. As with most things, it turned out Janice was right.

David Hardaway is a member of the National College for DUI Defense, the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, and the DUI Defense Lawyers Association.

He is also a proud member of the College of the State Bar of Texas, an honor bestowed on fewer than 10 percent of the attorneys in Texas, reflecting his firm commitment to continuing legal education. Attorney David Hardaway has received a number of legal awards that reflect his ongoing commitment to earn the trust that his clients place in him every single day.

When not hard at work on his clients cases, he enjoys watching Razorback football and Jayhawk basketball, volunteering in the community, participating in recreational sports, and most of all spending time with his wife, Janice, and his two beautiful daughters, Adelaide and Willa. Honors
