This is my third time working with Attorney Abbey Forde at Bull & Reinhardt, and I continue to be absolutely blown away by the exceptional service, professionalism, and compassion she provides. Abbey's ability to explain complex matters clearly, anticipate what’s needed, and protect your best interests is unmatched. She is not only incredibly intelligent, thorough, and well-versed in family law - she’s one of the most effective and trustworthy attorneys I’ve ever worked with - even compared to others with decades of experience. Abbey is the kind of attorney who truly goes above and beyond. She is efficient and deeply thoughtful in her approach - with both emotional and legal intelligence. She’s someone who makes you feel heard, supported, and confident throughout the legal process. Her legal assistant, Adam, and the entire team are also warm, organized, and very easy to work with. I can’t recommend Abbey highly enough and will continue to return to her for any future legal needs.

Dear all, at the time of this review, it has been just a few days since I won my case. My attorney was Criss Reinhardt, assistant Amy Johnson and the new emerging star attorney Abbey Forde. It was the best team I could ever work with and win my case! I will remain forever grateful for all of you. Chriss is absolute the most brilliant lawyer. Chriss knows how to work with the judge, Criss is confident in the courtroom and law, which are the most important skills for a successful lawyer. With me as a client, he was straight forward, to the point and honest. He is efficient with the time he spends on your case. Criss not only won my case in NC, Asheville court but also, he gets the credit for me wining the HAGUE case in Lithuania. Please if you have a case that is complicated, that involves international law like the HAGUE case, emergency custody, jurisdiction, proper service hire Criss Reinhard, he got your back! Abbey Forde, newly graduated and smart attorney too, best whishes!

Working with Adam Bull (& Teri Frank) over the past 2 years has been perfect. Adam was a strategic partner to help me achieve the fairest outcome possible. He was clear in his communication and consistently advised me on next steps or how we could achieve the best outcome. I also appreciated his honesty in what the outcomes could be given my situation even if I did not like it. I would recommend Adam and team to anyone going through divorce. Thank you Adam, Teri, and Robyn for all of your help and guidance!

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 everyone 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

A rock star in and out of the courtroom! Mr. Bull handled my very difficult divorce from a woman who was incredibly combative and disagreeable. His legal prowess was clear from the beginning to the end, throughout months of hearings and depositions. Every hearing resulted in a win for me. His closing arguments are like polished speeches you would swear were written and practiced for weeks prior rather than the extemporaneous creations they actually are. If you need the best, you need Adam Bull!

I felt positive and confident after the initial consult. I do not like posting negative reviews because there is too much of that already in today's times so I reserve it for when I feel it is especially applicable. I was surprised about Dr Bull's lack of responsiveness based on all the positive reviews. His assistant was responsive but she could only cover for him so long. People in my church that have known him say that he is burned out and looking to retire soon. I have heard good things about other attorneys at Bull & Reinhardt so this is only in regards to my experiences with Dr Bull.

Hired Attorney Christopher Reinhardt

Doesn’t prepare at all for case, doesn’t care about clients, makes statements on clients behalf without even consulting you. Not an ethical bone in his body, won’t even meet with you before court. You have no idea what he’s going to say…because he’s pretty much just going to buddy up with opposing counsel. Cannot believe he does charity work and tries to act like he cares for children, his work ethic suggests otherwise.

Hired Attorney Christopher Reinhardt

Highly incompetent, ALWAYS late- has no regard for time or accuracy. Does not reply, and has no regard for anyone's schedule but his own. Has a clear sense of entitlement and expects to be recognized as superior, which is clearly a way to compensate for his inadequacy. Grandiose and condescending.

Hired Attorney Christopher Reinhardt

Weak litigator. Lost a change of venue and we fired him before he would have lost on judgment. Inattentive. Absent or late for hearings. Doesn’t return phone calls or respond to email. We never knew what the next step was. Overcharges and underserves.

Hired Attorney Adam Bull

Mr. Bull did not provide the services I hired him to provide. His chief interest was in collecting retainers. Communication was absent, unless about the subject of a retainer. He put me in legal jeopardy. I paid for that; in fact, I overpaid for it.

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

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
