Directions, parking and service areas for each office are on our office locations page. Clients elsewhere in North Carolina, out of state or overseas can meet with us by phone or Zoom.

What Happens After You Contact Us

1. We call you back, usually the same business day. A member of our intake team will ask a few questions about your situation, the county involved and the other party's name so we can run a conflict check.
2. We schedule your consultation. Consultations are with an attorney, in person at any of our offices or by phone or Zoom, and are billed at the attorney's hourly rate for one hour. We will quote the fee when we schedule.
3. You send us the basics. Before the meeting we will ask for any court papers you have received, any agreements you have signed, and a short summary of what you want to accomplish.
4. You meet with your attorney. The attorney will listen, explain the law that applies, lay out your options and give you a plan and a quote for moving forward. You do not have to decide at the meeting. See our consultation FAQ for what to expect.

If you are in immediate danger, call 911. If you have been served with court papers, note the date on the summons; you generally have 30 days to respond, and a protective order hearing can be set within ten days. Tell us about any deadline when you call.
