Overview

Dustin Dillard has been with the firm since 2002 – a member of our Healthcare Practice Group with specific know-how in defending claims of Medical Professional Liability.

“My father is a physician as are numerous friends. As such, I have a profound respect for the work medical professionals do every day and how hard they work.”

Working with Dustin, clients receive a thorough evaluation and investigation of their cases combined with unbiased advice – all designed to protect their interests. Dustin listens intently to his clients and values their input during each stage of the litigation process. “What clients tell me often creates the roadmap for how the case is defended. For example, during discovery, a client proactive in defense of their case is invaluable in preparing for witness depositions and preparing for trial.”

When he is not helping healthcare providers navigate the legal realm, Dustin enjoys spending time and traveling with his two children.
