Brunswick County is named for the colonial port of Brunswick (since abandoned and in ruins) but the…read moreport was named for the Duchy of Brunswick-Luneburg. The county was formed in 1764 though the county seat was not moved to Bolivia until 1978 with this courthouse completed in 2001 along with the other buildings in this county government complex. the courthouse is a three-story structure built of structural steel, concrete, and stone. The building presents a formal, symmetrical façade with a prominent northeast-facing portico supported by four large columns. These rise to a wide entablature that frames the recessed third story, I would describe it as neither Modernist nor Classical Revival, as the building has a sense of classical gravitas while maintaining a contemporary footprint. The interior has a grand staircase rising to the second story and five courtrooms. The building houses the County Superior Court and County District Court of the 13th Judicial District. The government complex is massive and so there is plenty of parking that is a short walk to the building. It is not open on the weekends and even if it was, cameras are not permitted inside. Still, you can walk the grounds to admire this impressive structure. [Review 1364 of 2025 - 4483 in North Carolina - 24916 overall]

You ask for a copy of the alleged ticket, all notices regarding a court appearance being required for a ticket issued to an out of state driver and they refuse to supply anything. Fast forward to 2008, the same out of state driver's license that allegedly received the ticket and driving privileges in Nort Carolina being suspended in North Carolina came back with no problems when supplied for a traffic stop. Instead of dealing with the incompetence you get a total due and call to confirm they received the check, they confirm they received the check but it's for more then is due. They provide a receipt in the mail showing every amount apparently the word refund on the receipt means addition to those morons. The total was 421.00 plus 20.00 for installment plan(which there wasn't) so 441.00 total then refund of 20.00 for the installment plan total 461.00. Received the refund today 20.00 not 40.00. They give anyone your information, I called once and couldn't deal with the stupidity of the person I talked to. My girlfriend called and got all the information including the date of the ticket, the driver's license and number they issued the ticket to, not once did they ask to speak with me to get my permission to release any information like I said morons.

This 45 minute narrated cruise was not worth the $10 ticket and I realized later that the boat is really just a water taxi to the USS North Carolina. It was nice being on the water and seeing Wilmington from the river, but the narration literally consisted of "here's the courthouse" and "there's a tanker."

Bruce Armstrong is hands down the BEST lawyer/legal professional I have ever dealt with. He takes a…read morepersonal vested interest in every case he deals with and established a great client relationship immediately. He was able to break everything down for me very plain and simple, and promised me he would work as hard as he could to minimize the charges I faced. I faced some pretty heavy charges, so I never thought he would be able to get them all dropped, but sure enough, he did just that. He was in frequent communication with me before the trial and asked me for information to show my character. He knew exactly what he was doing and was with me every step of the way. He always made time to talk with me on the phone and answer my questions. I would recommend to ANYONE to seek him out if you are in need of legal assistance. He is by far the most competent, hard working, and skillful lawyer in North Carolina. Here is a summary of what I went through for those of you who wish to continue reading: I was traveling through Fayetteville, NC for work and received an outstanding traffic ticket, coupled with aggressive/reckless driving and driving to endangerment. I was faced with loosing my license and was so terrified and stressed out I did not know what to do. I called around to a few different lawyers that had the best online reviews, and each one of them was going to charge me over $800 for a starting fee and the receptionist wouldn't even let me speak to the actual layer himself. Additionally, they basically told me those types of charges are near impossible to have dropped and so I was most likely going to have to pay hundreds of dollars more for various fines. A friend recommended Bruce Armstrong to me, and so I called his office and immediately noticed a different. Right off the bat, his receptionist was super friendly and understanding; She listened to my entire story and took down as much detail as possible. Then, she told me that Mr. Armstrong would call me right back, and sure enough, less than 2 hours later I received a call back from Mr. Armstrong himself. He spent time getting to know me, my background, where I came from, what happened, why it happened, and then walked me through a sort of game plan he was thinking of. He did not blow any smoke, and was completely transparent and honest the entire time. His fee was over 50% less than other lawyers in the area, yet the service he provided was 100 times greater. I am SO thankful for finding Bruce Armstrong, and would not go with anyone else in the future.
