Estate Planning/Estate Administration/Probate
Everyone needs to consider end of life issues. If you don’t have a Will or other valid estate planning device in place before death or incapacity, North Carolina law will mandate how your estate will be distributed upon your death. Those laws contained in the North Carolina Intestate Succession Act may lead to serious unintended consequences.
Labor and Employment
If you own a business and have questions about how to properly handle employment matters or if you are an employee with questions about your rights under the federal and state statutes, we can help.
Personal Injury
Eastern North Carolina is no different than other areas of our country. People are often injured through no fault of their own. Some are injured in a car wreck. Some are injured while working. They may suffer terrible injuries and are in constant pain. Their injuries may prohibit them from working or from enjoying their everyday activities. Some may have health insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, or some other type of financial assistance that will help them pay medical bills, while others cannot afford to pay a doctor to treat their injuries. Over the years, we have helped people throughout eastern North Carolina receive the medical care they need and recover the income they lost after being injured.
