Nothing that I can honestly say was good. Our son unfortunately committed a crime and we paid this…read morefirm $15k to help. The only service that was provided was research which was completed in no time with little effort. After that they just dropped it. Never heard anything. My son had wrote to them asking for some answers and never heard back. He finally was told that his lawyer had left but they would help in anyway; so he writes again and never heard anything. I personally feel that the money was all that they wanted. We would have gladly paid the remaining 10k if they had accompanied anything. I strongly suggest that when seeking out a criminal lawyer you definitely do your homework! Research them, go to several, and know that there are no refunds.

Mrs Patrick dismissed my case intending to refile and did it WRONG. The opposing attorney told her TWICE that she was doing it the wrong way. As a result my entire case was dismissed. I had to allow her to fix her mistake . The NC bar has already agreed she did indeed mess up. She lost the appeal and Rule of 60 (do-over) cases. As a result...I got nothing- no child support, alimony OR retirement. She has the least amt of liability insurance an attorney can get (100k) and NOTHING is in her name. I paid her over 50K- she had to do an appeal and rule of 60 for free. She now has several attorneys representing her, and their attorney fees are paid by liability insurance. She refused to settle or discuss a settlement. I never felt she had my back, intentionally put things off, and was a terrible advisor. We never had a meeting before mediation, she was never prepared, and always seemed lost when appearing in court, and was dominated by the opposing attorney. I do not recommend using her !

After many frustrating years of dealing with a co-parent that refuses to co-parent, I reached out to Kathleen. Kathleen took up my case in the middle of an extremely stressful time for my family, and within 24 hours, was preparing and filing motions to protect my children. Within just two weeks, she knew every detail of my case, and was able to successfully resolve a show cause that had been dragging on for months. The journey is not yet over, but I am looking forward to working with her in the future, and feel that I've made more progress in the last 4 weeks than I have in the last 4 years! I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a family law attorney!

I used Scott to handle my divorce in 2016. My ex was very difficult and the negotiations for a…read moresettlement were drawn out, through no fault on our side. Scott helped me hold strong and ultimately agree to a settlement that was fair to both sides yet was more than acceptable to me. Not only did he offer great legal advice and prevent me from just giving in to get it done, but he also helped me on the personal and emotional side of the ordeal and kept me strong until a settlement was reached. I found Scott to be extremely knowledgeable and experienced. When the ex came back looking for more (the first time,) he dismissed her demands and she went away. Now that she has come back (the second time,) he is helping me fight back hard and put an end to this nonsense. The fact that she has come back twice is a good indication that Scott's original counsel prevented the other side from getting their way. I am not sure about the earlier review, but Scott has always been very responsive and has returned my phone calls promptly. He would even fit me in between his court appearances. Scott was my second attorney during this divorce. The first one "nickeled and dimed" me for every minute but never truly answered my questions. Scott has been more than fair in terms of his fees and did not charge me to read every text or answer every call. He always provided answers to my questions and would elaborate and expand upon them and offer additional strategies. I would highly recommend Scott if you find yourself in the financial battle of your life.

He…read moredid the heavy lifting through multiple court hearings and helped me to get the best possible outcome despite a very difficult starting point. Scott is not only very knowledgeable but also enjoys an excellent reputation at the Wake County family court, which is important. While other lawyers might camouflage their weakness in court by acting as very expensive therapists, Scott is focused on the facts of your case and makes sure you will get the best possible outcome. James, his paralegal, is very caring, helpful and seems to have unlimited patience. Trusting a person is hard, especially in the emotional turmoil that comes with a divorce. I learned to trust Scott and follow his lead and never regretted it standing next to him when the judge announced the ruling. Scott has passion and a very good heart. He always will be my hero.

I retained John for some legal documents our company needed for a new venture, and John helped us complete it quickly and at a reasonable price.

I also liked the convenient location in Raleigh. I definitely recommend John to anyone else looking for legal counsel or representation.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with this parent coordinator and would strongly caution…read moreothers before agreeing to use him in a high-conflict coparenting situation. From the very beginning, his behavior demonstrated a clear and undeniable bias in favor of my ex, to the point that multiple decisions he made had to be brought before the judge and ultimately reversed because he overstepped the scope of his authority. Rather than acting as a neutral professional focused on improving communication and helping both parties work toward healthier coparenting, he consistently approached every situation with hostility, condescension, and apparent preconceived judgment toward me. His communication style was often rude, dismissive, and accusatory, regardless of the facts or context presented. What was most concerning was the complete lack of objectivity. Despite extensive written communication clearly showing that I was making repeated efforts to de-escalate conflict, cooperate, and improve the coparenting relationship, those efforts were routinely ignored or minimized. Meanwhile, my ex's communications frequently contained unnecessary nitpicking, antagonistic behavior, and attempts to manufacture conflict out of minor issues, yet those actions were never acknowledged or addressed fairly. A parent coordinator is supposed to help reduce tension and encourage productive coparenting. Instead, this process became another source of conflict because of the obvious imbalance in treatment and repeated overreach. When a neutral professional inserts personal bias into already difficult family dynamics, it can create significant emotional and financial harm for everyone involved -- especially the children. I understand that not every recommendation or decision will favor both parties equally, but neutrality, professionalism, and respect are the minimum standards expected in this role. Unfortunately, those standards were not met in my experience.
