About Dhamian

I represent clients in high stakes commercial litigation and criminal cases. I have represented plaintiffs and defendants in cases involving securities fraud, consumer protection, qui tam/false claims act, and business disputes. I also have defended clients in criminal cases involving health care fraud, tax fraud, counterfeit currency, identity theft, drug trafficking, armed robbery, and first degree murder.  I have tried several cases to verdict, and have represented clients on appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit and the U.S. Supreme Court.

Review Dhamian Blue

Dhamian is extraordinary.

Posted by

Dhamian is extraordinary, he has such integrity and wisdom. He is dedicated to following through to achieve the best results possible. Dhamian is a great listener and has a kindness that is rare in lawyers. I feel so fortunate to have worked with him in a very difficult lawsuit. He was always ahead of the game and responded immediately to calls and requests.

My Review of Mr. Dhamian A. Blue

Posted by

I greatly appreciated the assistance from Mr. Blue and his staff. They were very communicative and professional. I was kept in the loop in regards to any changes that were made during the time that I hired him. If I ever in the future need to be legally represented by Mr. Blue, I will not hesitate to contact him.

Terry Eaton, White collar crime Attorney on Sep 21, 2017
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Dhamian Blue is a top tier federal criminal defense attorney. If one of my loved ones were ever in trouble in N.C., Dhamian would be the first lawyer I would call. I have known Dhamian for more than 20 years. He is incredibly intelligent, yet personable and compassionate. He will work his heart out for your case. If you or a loved one are in trouble in N.C. and you are considering hiring anyone but Dhamian, you should reconsider.
