About
I am guided by way of the forceful command of the North Carolina Rules of Professional Conduct, which describe an attorney’s unique responsibility for the quality of justice:
“As an advisor, a legal professional affords a client with an informed expertise of the patron’s criminal rights and duties, and explains their sensible implications. As an advocate, a attorney zealously asserts the patron’s position beneath the rules of the adversary machine. As a negotiator, a legal professional seeks a result advantageous to the consumer however consistent with necessities of sincere coping with others.”
Guided by means of these easy standards, throughout greater than thirty years of regulation exercise I were privileged to represent numerous clients at the trial and appellate degree in both nation and federal courts. I actually have represented numerous clients who sustained severe injuries in trucking or motor vehicle accidents, and on their behalf pressed claims with insurance groups, and whilst essential, in our trial courts. I even have also represented clients injured by way of the carelessness or neglect of others on enterprise premises and in nursing homes.
I do now not view injured customers as “victims,” but rather as injured residents entitled to sound advice and zealous advocacy. I even have tried numerous cases before decide and jury, and am snug in court docket settings, and in negotiating the excellent viable agreement whilst suitable.
