Professional Experience
Dustin Doty has handled matters ranging from domestic relations issues to complex commercial disputes and has a focus on personal injury defense and professional liability cases.
Dustin previously spent several years with the firm before relocating to North Carolina for an in-house role with a public utility company. During his two-year absence, Dustin developed an understanding as in-house counsel overseeing claims and other matters of what a client is looking for in outside counsel and how a client can be best served. He was also reminded of his love for being in the courtroom, which lead Dustin and his wife, Elisabeth, to move back to Northwest Arkansas to rejoin WLJ.
