An Incredible Attorney

Dustan gave me another chance in life. My felony possession case was going to cost me my career I had a spent a lifetime building and my family, but he took a no win situation and gave me an outcome that no other attorney would have. He gave me several options when we first started all of which would... have been disastrous to my career, but with his outside the box thinking he gave me another option, a Pre-Trial Intervention, he warned me that it was a longshot but it was worth the effort for me to try because I had a lot to lose. He SUCEEDED!! I now have a second chance in life and thanks to him I still have my job and my daughter. I cannot thank him and his staff enough. I highly recommend Dustan Neyland, he is an incredible attorney and great person.

Beyond impressive federal attorney

My husband and I hired Dustan to represent him on a criminal federal case. This was a case that covered a lot of time and detail and having already gone through one attorney...we needed someone to do it the RIGHT way and fight for my husband. Dustan is a very diligent attorney. From the very first ti...me I called him he would always take my call unless he was in court. Even then he would text me and tell me that. He is always very quick to respond and never kept us waiting. He went to see my husband in jail often and most important he believed in him and didn't settle for some ridiculous sentence. The judge granted everything Neyland asked for. This man is highly respectable and very well worth it. I would hire him again if we had to do it all over again, just allot sooner!

Hands down best lawyer in Texas

To start with I have been a client of dustin neyland since 2007 and he have been my lawyer for 3 different cases all won in my favor thanks to his knowledge and hard work. He worked really hard for me with two of the cases going to trial and ended up winning both one was criminal trial and the other ...family trial, previously had other lawyers work on my cases were they seemed not to care about the situation and was only after money, with mr.neyland was different he fought very hard and was very reasonable and whatever I did not understand he explained it very well also in trial dustin neyland worked very hard to fight for me and my daughter I have no words to describe how much I thank you for all he have done for me and my family as he changed our life with his help and knowledge I can not really describe or use any word on how dustin neyland is the best lawyer and a very hard working person. If you truly want someone with cares about you and your situation that will fight for you dustin neyland is the best person to do that I have recommended him to a lot of people and the few that I know who he handled there cases all came in there favor. Thanks dustin your the best and I appreciate all you have done.

I can breath now.

Over year ago has gone by after the accident and I can now breath. When you have been in a major accident, your world is turned upside down. You have anxiety, fear, flash backs and on top of that money issues. When you have been treated wrongly and don't know who to talk to, call Dustan Neyland. He... was referred to me by a friend and I gave him a call. He saw me that day! Dustan made me feel at ease and he was very knowledgeable about the type of D.W.I. case I was dealing with. I did however still see what other attorneys were like. I won't name names, but it felt like they were used car sales men. This is my life and i don't need a used car man dealing with my legal issues! I ran back to Dustan Neyland knowing he was right for me. Over the year, he answered all my calls and text messages promptly. You have a lot of questions when you go through an ordeal like this. He is very professional and detail oriented. when you go to trial and the other side is trying to make you look bad, He fights for you! I am beyond happy that I can say Dustan Neyland stood by my side and we won the case! When you have to make a decision on who to chose to be your lawyer, I would pick Dustan Neyland. I had a lawyer once tell me, " it's not personal" . Dustan never once made me feel like my case didn't matter or I was just another nameless case number. He made it personal! To Dustan, I am very thankful for all your hard work.

My review of Dustan Neylan

I would recommend Dustan Neyland to any of my family, friends, co-workers as he completely handled everything for me. I was arrested for the DWI and this was my third one, however, I wasnt sure if they were going to count the 1st one, as it was so many years ago...so I was either going to be charged... with 2nd offense misameanor or 3rd offense felony. 3rd offense felony could have resulted in possbile jail time, meaning I would have lost my job, my home and maybe even my marriage, so this was a life altering event in my life. As it turned out, Dustan made sure I was only charged with 2nd offense misameanor and my case has been settled with fines, probation, intoxicalock, alcohol treatment, BUT NO JAIL TIME. Dustan advised me and my wife of all of our options, he explained everything to us, so we could understand. He was available for any questions we had or any re-assurances we needed to the fact that he was taking care of everything. And that is exactly what he did....he took care of everything for us.

"Dustan is a young, aggressive, smart lawyer who fights for his clients. I had a unique legal issue recently and Dustan had already researched the issue. His research was extremely helpful in my case. I am confident that Dustan will be prepared in representing any client and they will be better served for this. His prior experience as an Assistant District Attorney exposed Dustan to a lot of legal issues in a very short period of time and helped prepare him to become an effective criminal defense attorney who I certainly recommend."
