Consultation follow up

Mr. McCrary is very responsive and takes the time to carefully review the process and set expectations. While I ultimately engaged another attorney, Mr. McCrary contacted me to endorse their skills and asked me to keep him in the loop on my hearing. Exceptional follow up.

Proceed with Caution

Working with Dustin McCrary has been one of the worst experiences. He would say one thing one month and then go back on it and say something different the next month - multiple times. He did not answer emails, phone calls, or texts. I had SOOOOO many questions during the custody and divorce process... that simply never got answered. Maybe he deemed them not worth his time THAT I PAID FOR, but, as a layperson, I don't know the law and that's why I hired him. Here's the kicker of the whole experience, it took me calling a third party to understand what was happening because he couldn't take the time to explain to me so that I understood. He was was rude, condescending, uncompassionate, and showed zero empathy. When everything was all said and done, I didn't even get a phone call thanking me for my business or congratulating me that the process was over. That is poor business practice. I highly suggest you speak with a few different lawyers before choosing this one and overpaying a retainer that you won't get back the unused portions of. I called around after the fact, my mistake, and other retainers were thousands less than his. His retainer was a very sizable amount that I used a fraction of. Money NOT well spent for poor service for such a personal matter.

Corey, Thank you for taking the time to write this review of me on Yelp, AVVO and Google. I am very sorry to know that you weren’t pleased with my services. I realize the time zones between the east coast and the west coast can be problematic when scheduling telephone appointments, which is why I made sure to accommodate your work schedule to speak with you after normal business hours. If you would please email me or call me to address what aspect of your case did not result in your desired goal, I would sincerely appreciate that. I am confident that we accomplished all your goals and did so in a timely manner. I look forward to hearing from you. I hope you have a great Thanksgiving. Thank you, Dustin

Excellent and Caring Attorney

Dustin McCreay cares about his clients. He is not only an amazing lawyer but a good-hearted man. In our desperate time of need he was there for us. He stayed at his office and meet with us after his office hours had closed. We meet with Dustin several times after hours, due to our work schedules. ...My daughter’s situation was very unfair to her and we had no experience with legal matters. Dustin took her and us her parents under his wing. I knew at Dustin’s first impression he was the man we needed for the job. His confidence, presents and the way he spoke with us, gave us reinsurance. Dustin not only spoke to my daughter about her custody situation but he spoke with me. With my daughter being his client and her confidentiality, Dustin still had time to speak to me privately. He insured me that he would do everything he could get my grandson back to his mother and us. We trusted Dustin and he didn’t let us down. Dustin’s presents in the court room was superior and demanding. He believes in what he’s fighting for and goes after. Dustin is not only an outstanding lawyer is a genuine great person. He’s fair, approachable, easy to talk to and even humorous. I would recommend Dustin to represent anyone for any case they may have. Thank you again Dustin for everything you did for my daughter and for us.

Alleviated my stress

I got a speeding ticket right around Thanksgiving, but finding Dustin by reading his other reviews here made me feel confident that he'd be able to handle it. I was able to relax and enjoy the holiday! When we connected the following Monday, he exceeded my expectations. He's so prompt, thoughtful..., and personable answering all of my questions. He really took the stress out of the situation and I can not recommend him enough if you similarly find yourself ticketed. Go Tar Heels!

You will get your best possible outcome with Dustin by your side

Dustin represented me through a very lengthy, very complex divorce, spanning almost 3 years. During this time Dustin had to battle 4 different law firms, each with their own strategies to sway the outcome in my ex’s favor. Dustin supported me through the custody battle, division of property, alimo...ny and child support battles with great success. Each of these components came with their own set of challenges, which Dustin navigated with professionalism, grace and integrity. To make things more challenging for Dustin, my work schedule did not allow us to meet during normal business hours, forcing him to meet later in the evening and during weekends. Dustin even worked on my case during his honeymoon. I know this probably did not earn him points with his new bride, but the timing of his involvement was instrumental in a positive outcome for me. Dustin started out as my lawyer, but quickly grew into a good friend. I have, and will continue to strongly recommend Dustin for any family issues. He is honest, and forthcoming. He will educate you on what to expect, and advise you on the best course of action. You will get your best possible outcome with Dustin McCrary by your side.
