Kevin Dowling | Greensboro Criminal Lawyer

Please describe a case(s) in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
I represented an individual who was charged with first degree sexual assault, a Guatemalan citizen in the United States on a permanent visa. If he were convicted, he in all likelihood would spend the rest of his life in prison. I was able to effectively provide a defense on his behalf resulting in the acquittal of all charges. This individual placed his entire faith upon me and my ability to represent his interests. I have since taken steps to eradicate this incident on his permanent record.

How did you build a successful practice?
Honesty and creativity are two of the primary assets to building a practice and reputation is so important. I have been practicing for over 30 years entirely as a sole practitioner. I rely a great deal on client satisfaction and word of mouth referrals. I have a proven track record over my 30 years of practice by being a respected, straight forward, and diligent representative for my clients.

What should clients look for in a lawyer?
Honesty and diligence are the two most important aspects. An attorney should never promise more than he can realistically provide for a client. On the other hand, making sure that his clients positions and interests should be represented.

How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?
Having practiced for over 25 years in New Jersey and moving to North Carolina required some period of time in which to both prove my and enhance my representation. I have been practicing for close to 7 years in Guilford County. Certainly my knowledge of the Court system and the individual Judges is extremely important to the success of any case. My practice, which is primarily limited to Guilford County relies upon my reputation as an attorney in Court and my knowledge of the customs and practices in Guilford County.

What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?
I can provide information concerning dates and what a client can expect in an initial involvement in the Court system. I can also advise as to some of the penalties and sanctions associated with the charges that they may face. I can also provide an idea of the fee structure for such representation. I am an effective trial attorney. I have a vast amount of experience representing individuals charged with serious and minor crimes and misdemeanors. I am accessible and clients find me both serious and engaging.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?
Being able to help people out of difficulties that they face.

What are your other interests in addition to law?
I am an avid gardener. I love movies and all types of music.

Are you involved in your community?
I am a cooperative extension Master Gardener volunteer. I love going to the community to help people deal with a myriad of issues with respect to gardening in the Piedmont area
