Mrs. Brianne Van Apeldoorn and Misty Waldroup were my lawyer and paralegal. Right from the initial consultation Mrs. Vans Apledoorn explained exactly how she would recommend going about my case and executed it wonderfully when that time finally came. Misty was very quick with responses and continued to keep me up to date with everything and helped me understand what everything meant if needed.
During pre trial she explained things very well and went over everything to get a feel of how the court proceedings will go. She is very friendly and welcoming.
During trial she objected, questioned, and requested with reasoning things being dismissed before even having the chance to be heard. She was prepared for the long and treacherous day which turned into a shorter than expected day due to her attentiveness and organization. She was able to get our motion granted without needing my witnesses to testify.
It was expensive but for the outcome she delivered it was all worth it. For any family custody matters, I will be returning to her and will absolutely recommend her for any family law issues.

I spoke with Mr. Irons and Mr. Albritton this morning and they were very helpful and informative. I felt they were caring and explained things so I could understand the nuances of my potential claim. Just based on this I felt very comfortable and would recommend speaking with them if you need legal help.

I was in a minor hit and run accident a few days ago and reached out to Auger & Auger on their website. Was contacted quickly the next morning and was able to speak directly with Herb Auger. He spent a good 15-20 minutes with me on the phone, thoroughly explaining what my options were and how best to proceed given my circumstances. He went above and beyond. Absolutely fantastic service!
Highly recommend his firm to anyone in need!

Ms Candi with The Law office of Jason E. Taylor was able to get the resolve I was looking for. She is amazing. Actually, she was able to do what I couldn’t. I was having so many issues with the Insurance Company and with her, she was able to take the work load off my shoulder and got the insurance to do what I couldn’t. She is so kind and professional.

Always a great experience. Danielle (attorney) responds in a prompt matter and is always willing to answer my questions and give advice about needs that come up for clients and the real estate transactions. Desmond (paralegal) does a great job getting back to me and in a couple transactions this past week was amazing about keeping me in the loop (I'm sure I contacted him 15 times in a 2 day period). As an agent I appreciate their systems and the way I can keep up with every step of the transaction and interaction with my clients. I am sure there are others behind the scenes but most of my interaction is with Danielle and Desmond and its always an A+ interaction.

I see why my colleagues in the Keller Williams Preferred office have a great working relationship with this firm. Not only is it conveniently located, they put a lot of attention to detail and keep the communication open with all parties concerned.
Great transaction with these professionals who went out of their way with a few superlatives in order to ensure a smooth closing and transaction.
Apparently they are in new offices as of October 2022; beautiful facility (see image)

10/10. Although my case was lengthy (for reasons outside of the attorney’s control) Fapojuwo Law made this experience considerably smooth for me. Josiah Fapojuwo is an intelligently, knowledgeable and well experienced attorney. I was recommended to him by a peer and I will further recommend his office to whomever in need. I’m confident that he will always go above and beyond. Thank you for everything!

I cannot recommend Attorney Mufaka enough! When I moved out of the country, I had a driving citation case that needed to be resolved, and he handled it flawlessly. Attorney Mufaka was not only highly effective in settling the matter but also incredibly professional and approachable throughout the process. He kept me informed every step of the way and made what could have been a stressful situation remarkably smooth and stress-free. If you’re looking for a lawyer who’s both skilled and kind, contact him!

I want to first and foremost can't express enough of my gratitude
Towards the amazing team at Riddle and Brantley. I was in a really bad car accident. And after trying to work with the insurance company with the at fault party and they weren't willing to help me. I honestly felt like it was the end of the road, and no one was going to help me.
Then I contacted this company and man old man. I can honestly say they came in the clutch. I'm blessed and grateful to my lawyer Daren Dawson and the exceptionally gifted an incredibly sweet patient Case Manager Kalena Tavares for their time and effort and assisting me when I needed someone the most, they didn't just treat me like a patient. They treated me like family.
And I will forever recommend this amazing law firm for all of your law. Needs, thank you guys, you're the best.

I highly recommend them to anyone who is in need. Thank you Kevin C.

Jay White is an increadible attorney with 30 plus years of experience, which is one of the traits to a great attorney. I initially went with a popular online law firm that specializes in tickets… and they were too green in handling a case like mine. The benefits of using an attorney like Mr. White is his years of experience, and he personally looks at your case and takes an approach based off that case and not out to make a quick buck and put it on the pipeline. Jay White proved his swift and efficient representation, which is what you expect from a high caliber attorney. He has a very efficient, honest, and transparent team that comes along with his representation. I do not live in NC but that wasn’t a problem, he took care of everything and I am incredibly satisfied with the outcome of my case. Consider Jay White for your next representation you are in good hands.

I was referred to this legal team. For an estate matter my attorney was Lindsay. She is polite but mislead me in valuable Knowledge. I had to require Input a and do hours of research on my own behalf. To require what I'm entitled to. Then attorney JARED PEARCE was extremely rude and demanding that I sale. A 40 thousand dollar vehicle of my spouse's.To pay him for his services and out of a ten thousand dollar check he demanded 6 of it and if I didn't agree to that he would keep it all. So I've paid this form 7 thousand dollars this year. And have received 4 thousand dollars. You know. What they say the devil wears Prada. Before you hire this firm. I strongly suggest you know your P's n Q's.BEWARE!!!!!!!

I hired Franklin Jones for a very serious matter. I didn't know what the outcome would be do to the seriousness of the accusations. He kept me up to date with my case and explained never ask questions from an accuser without your attorney, it could be very damaging to your case. At the end a miracle is what ill say happened for me, dismissed. Franklin Jones knows his law. Thanks Franklin

I am very grateful for the help I received from Franklin Jones when I needed his services. He personally took my call after hours to advise me on my matter and called again the next day to see if I had any questions. After hiring Mr. Jones, he was very driven in accessing the records needed from State Police and continued to advise me on the particulars of my case. I was equally impressed with his staff, as an out of state client during the fluctuations of COVID, they kept me updated on any changes in my court appearances. Mr. Jones was able to ensure I received the very best outcome for my case which allowed me to keep my commercial license and clean driving record.

Matt is the best attorney hands down around !!! Literally has helped me and my oldest son Tristan more than any lawyer in my whole 11 years of dealing with the legal system against my son's crazy phyco father !! He helped me win a much needed 50 b restraining order for me and my son as well as the custody modification, both huge wins and has given my son a much needed peace of mind and him to feel safe and not have anxiety for the moment from a uncertain outcomes of a court date of not knowing how am outcome will go which way sometimes with keeping my son safe so he can just get back to enjoying being a kid. Matt's team is very helpful but I have to say his office girl Caroline is the most sympathetic and caring and seems to really truly care.

I never wanted to be in a position to have to hire an attorney, and was reluctant to do so when the opportunity presented itself. After speaking with some trusted friends, and after talking to several attorneys, Mr. Chandler became the obvious choice for me.
He was very thorough, and was respectful of my time. He made himself accessible, and was always right on top of things. He was honest and straightforward with expectations, and was patient to carefully explain next steps.
I love that his firm did not advertise, and am glad to pass along my sincere recommendation after receiving amazing service. And equally important: getting results after months of getting nowhere with the insurance company representing the at-fault driver. Mr. Chandler did a fantastic job of representing me and letting me get on with my life, and I am very appreciative.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You
A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.
If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.
When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?
Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:
- Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
- Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
- Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
- Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
- Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
- Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.
What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?

- Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
- Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.

- Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.

- Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.
How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?
Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
- Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.
Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?
