David J. French

Driven by the values of justice and fair play, David French wanted to be an employment law attorney before he knew such a job existed. He understands the central role employment takes in most people’s lives, and how unbalanced the employer/employee relationship can be. That’s why he’s passionate about leveling the playing field by zealously advocating for employees’ rights under the law.

David graduated from the University of North Georgia with a degree in history and briefly had the pleasure of working in the museum field. However, his desire to actively seek justice for others led him to pursue a career in law, first as a paralegal, and then by earning his Juris Doctorate from Georgia State University. While in law school, David was a regular volunteer for the Atlanta Volunteer Lawyers Foundation’s Housing Court Assistance Center, helping tenants assert their rights and minimize the personal impacts of eviction proceedings.

David enjoys spending his free time with his family, going on walks with his Australian Shepherd, and sharing his love of history with others by volunteering at various historic sites. He also hopes that watching the last 10 minutes of “Taylor Bowl” (2024) will carry him through sports conversations for at least the next decade.
