The district is composed of 21 counties in eastern North Carolina. We have more than a decade of experience providing effective representation for all levels of misdemeanors and felony offenses.
Why is Federal Court Different?
Federal cases move through the court system quicker than state misdemeanor and felony charges. We use our experience to quickly determine which federal agencies are involved in the investigation and gather evidence to begin working toward a resolution quickly.
Federal courts require a different level of discovery for evidence and pre-trial motions. Our firm has extensive criminal defense experience in all types of federal charges.
