Great Attorney
After talking to a few attorneys I decided to use Dustin since he thought a letter was all it would take to get the 22k that I was offered in a severance agreement after being wrongful terminated. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case and his office took my case on as a contingency basis. During a very long year, Dustin always returned my calls when he was not readily available, responded to my email that needed responding to, a lot of them were FYI and he always met with me when I needed to discuss something with him. Trying to get my ex-employers discovery was like pulling teeth but Dustin fought until he got what he thought we needed to favorably settle my case. We ended up settling in mediation. I think Dustin is a great attorney and is very knowledgeable in law. I was very happy with the outcome of my case.

My wife and I were in need of legal advice and estate planning, and Dustin (Mr. Slade, Esquire) came to the rescue! It's difficult to overstate just how amazing he was. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the subject matter he helped us with, but honestly, that's not even the best part (though that is, of course, very important). The best part is that he is kind, patient, and it is very clear that he cares about you, and your family, and your prosperity and peace of mind. He helped us patiently through every step of the process, and he was always very responsive and prompt when responding to any of our numerous questions. We always felt that we were in very skilled and competent hands, and yet, at the same time, it almost felt like he was part of the family. With all of the things that one hears about lawyers in the media sometimes, it can be intimidating when you are faced with a legal challenge, and you can quickly feel out of your depth. But with Dustin as part of our team, we felt so relaxed and confident. And on top of all that, his pricing was more than fair. All said and done, it ended up being quite a bit more affordable than other estimates we had received. All in all, we simply can't praise or recommend Dustin Slade, Esq. enough. If you need legal help and you have the option of hiring him, you can't possibly do better!

I was involved in a very complex family LLC/Trust and trying to make a will. It was proving to be quite difficult. Estate Law can be quite complicated, and I was feeling a bit lost. Dustin N. Slade, Attorney-at-Law, was recommended to me I decided to give him a call. I'm glad I did! He is extremely knowledgeable about the law and he answered all my questions. I admire his honesty, patience, and compassion. I would very highly recommend him.
