He previously served as the second ever Commissioner of Bottle Toss, a local, legendary, Little Rock game.

He then attended the University of Arkansas for his undergraduate education as a double-major in History and German. In law school, also at the University of Arkansas, he won the Ben J.

My husband and I were both represented by dustin duke. He was extremely understanding and helped us with our issue within days! We had less than a week to prepare for court and Dustin won the case and was able to get my attorneys fees paid for from the other party! Would HIGHLY recommend arlaw partners they genuinely care about their clients and are always available for any questions you may have!
