Albert M. Messer

Al Messer's calm and composed demeanor, coupled with his extensive knowledge of the judiciary system, proved to be a winning combination in my case. Let's not forget about Sara! She was on top of her game, making sure I was always well-prepared and fully aware of what to expect. Their open lines of c...ommunication were key, as they always returned my calls in a timely manner and kept me in the loop. It's safe to say that their exceptional expertise and teamwork made a winning team in my case all charges were dismissed and my record expunged. I can not say enough amazing things about these two, I can’t thank them enough for all they did for me.

In the summer of 2023, I was experiencing one of the most difficult times of my life. I was possibly facing over five years in prison for a bizarre crime, I did not commit. Fortunately, I had grown up with a former President of the Buncombe County Bar Association, who was more than willing to recomme...nd a stellar criminal attorney—Al Messer. Fortunately, Mr. Messer was willing and available to represent me. He immediately returned my call and instantly put me at ease. He never sugarcoated my situation; in fact, he made sure that I was well prepared for the worst possible situation. He let me know that he believed in my innocence (which was very important to me) and anticipated my exoneration, while also advising me how to prepare for the worst, just in case. During the many months leading up to my trial, we maintained regular contact while we strategized, reviewed, and prepped. He and Sara, his assistant, took the time to talk me down off the metaphorical edge, as needed. I felt confident in my representation every step of the way. While so much of this situation was beyond my control, it was therapeutic to feel that I was taking part in my own defense as Al was very willing to consider my input while always applying his experience and expertise. This was quite helpful in a situation where you often feel so helpless. During the trial proceedings, it became apparent, very quickly, that Mr. Messer was delivering a higher caliber of representation than people, in Marion, were accustomed to seeing. Several members of the DA’s staff sat in the audience to view his arguments and techniques. An employee of the DA’s office was even overheard stating that I had gotten my money’s worth. I couldn’t have agreed more. I am so happy that I hired an attorney from Asheville instead of my hometown. When facing any serious offense, please hire the very best representation available. You definitely get what you pay for, and your freedom, employability, and reputation are not things to cut corners on. Lastly, although my heart is so full of gratitude that my four-day trial concluded with a not-guilty verdict, in less than fifteen minutes, I am particularly pleased that Mr. Al Messer represented me in a way that makes me proud. In a field often populated with people of questionable character, Mr. Messer successfully represented me using brilliance, sound reasoning, experience, and tenacity without resorting to badgering, bullying, or lying; he didn’t have to. He was able to use his knowledge of the law and the facts of the case to appeal to the jury in a way that allowed everyone on my side to hold our head’s head. Trust me—if you are fortunate enough to be represented by Al Messer, at Messer Law, your legal nightmare will be mitigated as much as possible. I honestly could not be more thankful to him and his office. If you have any specific questions, feel free to reach out to me on Facebook. Michelle Wilson-Cline

My experience with Messer Law Firm was professional and successful. Mr Messer was very confident, honest and professional . His assistant Miss Sarah was very prompt in keeping us informed about our case. My first and last DWI charge was a life changing experience. Thanks to Mr Messer ,our case wa...s dismissed and I can get on with living. I recommend him whole heartedly.

listen up ladies and Gents if you are in need of a Lawyer who is straight to the point, professional, and will apply his vast experience in the field to making sure you get the best outcome then look no further. I was facing a very serious charge and looking at losing rights and doing some serious ti...me if found guilty. Met with Al and he shot it to me straight and even told me that there was no need to see him again unless i had serious issues ( because it cost each time you meet with an attorney of course). He told me his assistant Ms Sarah Johnson would be able to handle any ? i had and reach him at any time in order to save my wallet. The results of my case were a dismissal of a felony charge. Don't even hire anyone else just do yourself a favor and do a little research and you will see that this guy is the equivalent of the CLOSER. 100 percent professional and courteous and i am grateful. This type of service is hard to find, o and one more thing the price was outstanding.

I can't imagine a better demonstration of the value of experience than was shown in the counsel and legal defense Al Messer provided to me and my family. We came to him facing a situation that to us was outlandish, frightening, and infuriating -- but it was one he'd seen dozens of times and he knew e...xactly how to handle my case. Al was unfailingly forthright in giving us a realistic sense of the prospects and risks present at each stage of the process, and in the end was able to deliver the outcome -- complete exoneration -- I needed to move on with my life. I'm profoundly grateful to Al and his assistant Sara for their work on my behalf, and I recommend Messer Law Firm wholeheartedly.
