Excellent Attorney and Legal Team

I first consulted with Mr. Reinhardt over two years ago after searching for the best family lawyer in Asheville. Not long after my custody case exploded and throughout the process, which continues to this day, the entire staff has been absolutely incredible. Although Mr. Reinhardt has been my attorne...y or record, over the course of my case I worked with almost every member of the firm, including Mr. Bull and Mr. Dow, who stepped in to help when they were needed. Through numerous court appearances, depositions, negotiations and conferences everyone at Bull & Reinhardt exhibited the utmost in legal professionalism; I always felt like I had the advantage with their team in my corner. As my case draws to a conclusion, I can say without a doubt that I made the right choice for representation.

Highly competent and professional!

When I first interviewed Chris Reinhard as a potential candidate for divorce I was facing, he told me that his strength was being well prepared. I found that to be exactly the case. He was able to rapidly get up to speed with the complexities of my situation, and quickly choose and implement a cours...e of action. In the moment, the main benefit for me was having the peace of mind of knowing that I was with someone who is extremely competent, and was able to choose the best course because of his thorough understanding. In that case and other since then, My experience as always spend highly professional, and the results as good as one could reasonably expect. I would definitely recommend him to a friend, and seek his counsel as needed in the future. David

Chris came through for our family!

Unfortunately my family needed legal services several years ago. Fortunately, Chris Reinhardt came highly recommended. Chris was professional, prompt to return calls, and guided us through a legal minefield. He was genuinely interested in a positive outcome for us and kept our family in tact and w...e can't thank him enough. I hope I never have to use his services again, but would not hesitate if the need arose. Thank you Chris!

Thank you Chris!

Chris is one of the best in depositions and cross examinations. Trust me my spouse who was trying to destroy me had to sit through both. Chris is VERY GOOD at what he does and knows exactly how to question people in legal situations. Chris Reinhardt is a "bulldog" in the courtroom and helped me in... my divorce case where my spouse did everything to destroy my life. If you are looking for attorneys to get you across the finish line in a difficult family law situation this office is great.
