If you're looking for a lawyer who knows the law, is professional, is not a pushover for DA's or other attorneys, and is always beyond prepared, then Dustin is the right guy. He kept in constant contact with me and kept me up to date on all proceedings as we moved forward. Best off all, he easily won my case. I highly recommend Dustin.

I had an excellent experience with JOSEPH HOLLANDER & CRAFT Law. They made my case much easier to navigate, thoroughly reviewing every detail. Their responsiveness and respect for my time were impressive. All the charges were withdrawn and was a big win. I can't thank Dustin and his team enough for their support. Dustin Curry is one of the best lawyers. I highly recommend his services!

My son was taken in custody by a local police officer for a (minor) misdemeanor charge a couple months ago and I contacted JosephHollander&Craft LLC. Right away Mr. Dustin Curry responded to me letting me know what to do and he would take care of it. I am very happy the case was resolved with a best outcome. Mr. Curry kept me informed throughout the process. I definitely recommend Mr. Dustin Curry! Thanks much again for your great help provided for my son, Mr. Curry! Angelo

Dustin Curry was superb from the start. He was upfront about everything, made me feel more at ease with getting through the process, and kept in constant contact with me during the whole process. Unfortunately due to COVID things were a little more prolonged with the court, but Dustin ended up winning my case through a jury trial. Very well worth having this attorney represent me and would highly recommend him and his staff!

Dustin Curry is unprofessional, disrespectful and used derogatory names towards other clients that weren’t apart of his current case. Continued to slander other personnel to try and gain a following.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions
