Serve Safe, Drink Safe, Do the Right Thing

Located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, Asheville, NC is experiencing a surge in tourism culture, especially around craft beer and brewery tourism. Branded “Beer City, USA” in 2009, Asheville is home to more breweries than any other US city, per capita.

With this welcome influx of tourism dollars come challenges for establishments and residents who desire to keep Asheville the safe and family-friendly city that attracted so many in the first place. Asheville currently has one of the highest rates of DWI conviction in the state, and in recent years has seen a distinct rise in drug/alcohol facilitated sexual assault crimes (DFSA).

Serving Asheville Safely: A Beer City Balancing Act.

Asheville personal injury attorney Lakota R. Denton, P.A. is proud to announce the Serve Safe, Drink Safe, Do the Right Thing campaign, to help remind Asheville’s visitors, residents and service industry staff to do their part to ensure that Asheville remains a safe place to live and visit. The project focuses on the importance of bars and restaurants efforts to ensure that they’re not over-serving their patrons.

Campaign Update

This campaign is presented in partnership with the Asheville ABC board. Visit us on Facebook and Youtube and check out our blog for more information.

I was referred to Lakota after being involved in a multiple vehicle car accident. Lakota and Jenny were both great to work with, they both were very caring and offered the best advice for my situation. Before speaking with them I was confused about the whole process and what was supposed to happen, Lakota went over each step of the process with me and made sure all of my questions were answered and I understood before I left. I left their office much more confident than I was when I walked in. They are wonderful to work with and I will not hesitate to call them in the future if needed.

Lakota and Jenny are a great pair to work with. Lakota is direct, realistic and honest about the processes needed to take place and I felt secure and confident while working with him. Him and Jenny both have a caring and gentle spirit which was greatly appreciated during a stressful lawsuit. Thank you both so much for everything.

In an accident? Need Help? This is your turn-key, set-it-and-forget-it solution! Lakota and Jenny are two of the best friends you will meet in Asheville! If anything can go sideways, be atypical or oddball... it seems like it will happen to me. True to form, several legal obstacles cropped up... even though I was not at fault in the accident. Jenny takes ownership of your problems. Like a dog with a bone, they will relentlessly work to resolve issues in your favor. Lakota and Jenny make you feel like family, as if you are their primary concern. PS: Lakota: Jenny deserves a raise!

Incredibly helpful folks- whether you end up utilizing their services or not. They provided me with peace of mind on a terrible day when I had no idea what steps to take. You won't find a friendlier or better informed personal injury lawyer in Asheville! Even if you're just not sure of your rights or the steps to take, it's definitely worth making the call!

Lakota and his staff are warm, thoughtful, and generous. Lakota offered free, informed advice about my situation, and I left the office feeling safe and confident that I could manage it, or if not, they could help. I am truly impressed with the genuine attention and positivity they offer.

Attorney Lakota Denton was super effective at isolating the issue, building a strong case, and achieving immediate results on behalf of clients in a matter that is so key to our constitutional rights. If looking for an attorney, look no further. You need him in your court!

I was a passenger in a car that was involved in an accident. The EMS had to transport me to the hospital where I went through many exams and tests. I had Mr. Denton handle my case, and he did a superb job on handling all that was involved in settling the case. I would never have been able to do all that was required had I not sought out Mr. Denton's help. He knew how to handle it all proficiently, and he settled the case to my satisfaction. You can trust this attorney to do the work for you, and you will be quite satisfied with the results. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking all the stress/frustration off my shoulders and doing such a great job!!

Just want to say that Lakota Denton and his staff are incredible. I left his office feeling like I was just adopted into his family. Very informative and easy to understand, I have a total understanding of how he handles cases from the short talk I had with him. I would recommend Lakota and his staff to anyone injured in an accident. If I could give 20 stars it would not be enough. Very happy with this Lawyer.

Absolutely the best attorney in the area, long story short I was involved in a motorcycle accident where the individual at fault had very little insurance and my property damage and personal injury costs were substantial. Lakota was extremely professional and genuinely helped in every way he could. Very good at communication, he kept me informed the entire time going on 7 months. Without him this mess could have been a catastrophe. I rate him 5 stars because that's the highest I could rate, he and his staff deserve an even better rating than that. I highly recommend him!

Lakota Denton is a champion for the people. He worked with me on a car accident case and won the maximum settlement. He has a strong reputation as an experienced trial lawyer so insurance companies know he doesn't mess around. Lakota is aware of loop holes and special amendments within the law to provide the best service possible and leaves no stone unturned. Every question I had (no matter how redundant or silly) he was glad to explain to me. Apart from his technical knowledge, he is very kind and warmhearted. Stepping into his office is like being invited into his home. I would 110% recommend him, and after discussing the settlement, I wanted to run down the street and tell every single person I saw about him.

I highly recommend Lakota Denton! He has been such a huge help, he kept me posted about my case, offered amazing advice while listening to my concerns and was beyond effective, especially considering I hired him shortly before the Covid 19 Pandemic started. I could not have made a better choice. I'm so relieved we were able to reach a settlement in an accident where the driver crossed the center line & hit me, sending me into oncoming traffic, finally coming to a stop only inches from the parkway bridge. She had no insurance, and no license. And I was certainly not the only one she'd done this to, not only did she hit the car behind me as well, she'd been in trouble numerous times for the same reason. I originally reached out to a different lawyer but was told that my case was not worth the time. I was very disappointed, I actually didn't look for another lawyer for over 2 years, until the statute of limitations was expiring. Lakota assured me that we had time, and that he could definitely help me. If you need an attorney in Asheville, or WNC there's no better choice.

On a cold and rainy night in January 2019, I was hit by a vehicle while walking through downtown Asheville, North Carolina. I spent the night in the hospital and needed legal help because they were alleging I was responsible for the accident even though I was the pedestrian. Lakota Denton and his staff took the case and through thorough research and investigative work, we were able to secure witnesses and a body of evidence against the driver. One year later, they conceded and we won. I highly recommend the excellent work of attorney Lakota Denton and the incredible staff who guided me through every step of the process for a positive outcome.

I was represented by Lakota Denton for serious injuries and trauma that I sustained after being hit and nearly killed by an SUV while riding my bicycle home from work in Asheville, NC. Lakota and his team kept me well informed throughout the entire process, and were always available to discuss any questions or concerns that I had. I was especially grateful for their professionalism, experience, integrity and honor. Lakota was not only successful in settling my personal injury case beyond our expectations, I also felt supported and confident that my best interests were a top priority. I was pleased with my experience and settlement and highly recommend Lakota Denton.

I'm leaving a 5-star review for Lakota Denton and his excellent team because of their utmost care and compassion. I came to them drowning in the turbid waters of despondent lawyers and sketchy doctors, and they put me on a plan to physical recovery, while they recovered my case. Lakota is a lawyer with keen awareness, dignity, and most importantly, heart. Thank you, Lakota.

I just want to thank you all for being the best legal team a person can ask to represent them. I appreciate the professional approach and expertise that you have shown me throughout the legal matter as my representative. You guys are truly "Awesome "! My experience with each of you was both professional and friendly with each interaction from initial call to the conclusion of my case. I will definitely refer others to your law firm for any legal help they may need. Jack Phillips
