I have been practicing law on the Outer Banks for 33 years.  27 of those years were with my father as my best friend and law partner.. I am married, have two fantastic children and one incredible granddaughter. I am very blessed.. I have a tremendously professional and driven staff. These folks tend to stay with me for the long-haul which is another of life's blessings.. I have been a private pilot for 35 years (SEL and instrument rated). I do not fly as often these days, but my wife and I are drum-fishing every available weekend through the summer. I am an avid outdoorsman in all seasons. If the sun is up, I am outside.. My practice brings me a great deal of joy, but I get particular pleasure from a difficult DWI or helping good folks out of sticky situations.If I or my firm can ever be of assistance, do not hesitate to contact us..
