Awesome Attorney!!

Dustin is a wonderful lawyer and really nice person too. He has a lot of experience and is always very informative and helpful. I have used him for several small things and also referred a few friends to him one of which he really has done an excellent job in helping with a case. I recommend him to e...veryone i know. He is ethical, professional, and kind hearted, and also an assertive and get things done kind of person. I like him as a lawyer a lot and he seems to be someone with a healthy lifestyle and good family too, so that is always reassuring that the person standing up for you is healthy in themselves and coming from a good place with integrity. I really appreciate that! Thanks again and wish you well!

Amazing Attorney

I was wrongly accused of a felony trafficking drug offense and through Mr. Dow's tireless efforts I was found not guilty. Amazing Attorney!!

Attorney Dustin Dow is diligent and committed!

I was charged with 3 felonies that I was innocent of, and was guilty by association. Even though it took over 1.5 years, Dustin never gave up on my plight, and even after it had looked like it was going to trial, Attorney Dow secured a complete dismissal of my case. The people who were actually inv...olved, who used public defenders, is serving 2 years intensive probation, and the other violated her probation and spent about 7 months in prison and is now still on parole for several years to come. Mr. Dow made sure that the DA knew I was only a person giving a ride to so-called friends. This was not an easy feat considering I had a previous conviction. I had even told Mr. Dow that after a year of dealing with this I was ready to plea, and he did not bring that option to the DA....thank God! If you are looking for any type of lawyer, whether it be criminal, civil, or traffic then do yourself a favor and hire this attorney. He was also a former ADA in Henderson County, so he knows how both sides work. No criticism here and everyone at Bull and Reinhardt are helpful and polite. Also, Dustin does not overcharge and is fair...the other attorneys I looked at charged at least 5 to 7 thousand more for retainer and would require more if the case went to trial. I actually retained him in the hallway of the courthouse, and he stopped to listen and reassured me...even though he had plenty of places he needed to be that morning at my arraignment. Thank You Dustin! Great Job! Frankie

Great lawyer

Mr. Dow is a great lawyer. He is knowledgeable about what he does, has compassion for the client and a sense of humor that is very personable. I hired Mr. Dow for custody and family court. He immediately got things filed in the court and communicated well by giving step by step counsel on what to ...expect and what needed to be done. I trust Dustin not because of attorney/client privilege, but because he strives to truly have the client trust him. I would recommend Mr. Dow to anyone in the Asheville area who needs someone on their side and will fight for you, especially when the client feels they can't fight anymore. He is a great motivator and was a huge encouragement on days it was much needed.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
