David Siegel was an FBI Special Agent, who transferred from Chicago to New York to become the new handler of Neal Caffrey.

Siegel grew up in a wealthy family, enough to own a yacht named Stephanie, but he threw it all away when he decided to join the FBI and arrest all of his family's friends. Subsequently, his wife left him for a better life.

Siegel graduated top of his class at Quantico, has some computer forensics experience, and supervised the Chicago White Collar Division for almost three years. While there, he was a handler for another C.I. in a program modeled after Neal and Peter Burke, but his case closure rate was in the 70 percent range, so he transferred to New York so he could work with Neal and be in the 80 percent range. He turned in his C.I. in Chicago after catching him forging lottery tickets.

In "Out of the Frying Pan", as his first case, Siegel chose to investigate Little Star Merchandise, an importer and seller of looted art and antiquities. Unknown to Siegel, Little Star's proprietor was Theodore Winters, aka Mozzie. To throw Siegel of Mozzie's tracks, Neal and Mozzie decided to fake Theodore Winters' death.

In "One Last Stakeout", Siegel is convinced by Neal to stakeout a museum to catch a thief, Zev Demetrius, red-handed. Unknown to Siegel, the theft was a coverup (orchestrated by Neal and Mozzie) of a different theft located in the same museum. At the end of the episode, Siegel is found dead.

It is later revealed that he was shot by Rachel Turner.
