Child Abuse
Allegations of child abuse or neglect present families with one of the most legally complex and emotionally difficult challenges imaginable. In North Carolina, regardless of how criminal authorities treat such allegations, the Department of Social Services (DSS) is required to conduct its own investigation and take its own actions.

DUI/DWI
In 2007, after graduating from Wake Forest Law School, Collin remained at the firm as an attorney in the criminal trial defense and appeals section. His practice focuses on criminal trial defense and appeals in North Carolinaâ€™s state courts, including traffic and DWI, as well as administrative law helping clients dealing with issues with various North Carolina State Agencies.
Traffic Violations

Sex Crimes
Disc. rev. denied, 346 N.C. 599, 703 S.E.2d 738 (2010). The defendant was convicted, pursuant to a plea agreement, of attempted first-degree sex offense and taking indecent liberties with a child, and ordered to enroll in satellite-based monitoring following release from his term of imprisonment. On appeal, the Court of Appeals held that the trial court erred by not following the procedure outlined in the statute authorizing satellite-based monitoring and also held that neither attempted first-degree sex offense nor indecent liberties with a child was an â€œaggravated offenseâ€ as defined by the relevant statute;
Fraud
Examples of Elliotâ€™s work on federal forfeiture cases include obtaining the release of over $2 million in seized client assets in a long-running bribery prosecution, convincing the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn a longstanding rule that allowed the government to seize citizensâ€™ innocent assets before a criminal conviction, and obtaining the release of over $1 million in assets in a healthcare fraud case.
Robbery
Disc. rev. denied, 367 N.C. 213, 747 S.E.2d 534 (2013). The defendant was convicted of robbery with a dangerous weapon. On appeal, the Court of Appeals awarded a new trial, holding that a presumption of prejudice arose from defense counselâ€™s conflict of interest.
Burglary
The Washington Post, the federal government deposited more than $5 billion into their asset forfeiture funds, whereas burglary losses were only $3.5 billion.
White Collar Crimes
Cheshire Parker Schneider has the experience, determination and resources to defend our clients against the most serious of charges, including capital murder, white-collar crimes, drug offenses, sexual assault and other violent crimes. We appear in North Carolinaâ€™s state courts and in federal courts throughout the country. Our team often takes cases at the early investigative stage to help clients avoid prosecution. Our trial attorneys are aggressive and strategic negotiators, when a plea deal is in our clientâ€™s best interests. Our appellate division pursues legal justice in the higher courts.
Misdemeanors
Our Raleigh criminal defense team is well known in North Carolina and nationwide for our aggressive pursuit of truth and justice in high-profile cases. We have spared our clients the death penalty in capital murder trials. We have won release of innocent prisoners who were wrongly convicted. We have also steered political corruption cases away from federal grand jury investigations. However, our misdemeanor division takes our clientsâ€™ cases just as seriously, recognizing the substantial impact that a DWI or possession charge can have on their lives, employment and families.
Embezzlement
Hart opened his own small law firm in 1997, and it quickly became noted by the media, legal peers and in the community as one of the top small firms in the area. For 21 years, Hart represented professional athletes, doctors, CEOs, law enforcement officers, and attorneys, among numerous other folks from just about every walk of life. During that time Hart gained extensive experience arguing cases before juries and won numerous jury trials. Appearing in state and federal court, Hartâ€™s clients included individuals charged with first degree murder, sex offenses, drug trafficking, embezzlement, political corruption, and many other offenses. Hart has represented Dr. Jeffrey MacDonald in his quest for exoneration for the better part of 16 years. The case has been the subject of multiple books, television shows and movies. Hart has also appeared in front of numerous professional boards, defending professional license holders against a variety of allegations.
Drug Crimes
Defense of all North Carolina state and federal criminal charges including high-profile prosecutions in matters ranging from political corruption to healthcare and other fraud to drug cases. Read More
Assault
Murder
During the summers of 2005 and 2006, between his academic years of study at Wake Forest Law School, Collin clerked for the criminal trial defense and appeals section of Cheshire Parker Schneider. In that role, he engaged in factual and legal analysis in cases ranging from complex white collar matters to first-degree capital murder. He also consulted with experts and investigators in various fields and subject matters, helped prepare witness examinations and defense themes and theories for trial, and assisted in the courtroom during trials. He also assisted in the criminal appellate work performed by the section.
Homicide
Few criminal charges carry higher stakes for the accused, or traditionally receive more attention from law enforcement and the public, than those associated with homicide and physical or sexual assault. Our criminal defense lawyers have defended individuals charged with all types of violent crimes in both state and federal courts across North Carolina. Read More
Money Laundering
In criminal matters, Elliot has won not guilty verdicts in both federal and state trials, including in two homicide cases, and has helped clients avoid charges, obtain dismissals, and defend against a wide array of alleged offenses, including conspiracy, bribery, bank fraud, healthcare fraud, mail and wire fraud, tax evasion, money laundering, antitrust, obstruction of justice, and violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), as well as drug offenses, gun charges, sexual assaults, and murder. He has also won two Motions to Suppress high-tech government surveillance in separate large-scale joint federal and state investigations, and has won new trials for three federal defendants.
Kidnapping
State v. Adams, 187 N.C. App. 676, 654 S.E.2d 711 (2007). The defendant was convicted at trial of first-degree rape, first-degree kidnapping, felonious breaking or entering, first-degree sexual offense, communicating threats, and assault on a female. On appeal, the Court of Appeals held that evidence was insufficient to sustain convictions of first-degree rape and first-degree sexual offense. The Court reasoned that the use of hands does not satisfy the element of employing or displaying a dangerous weapon required for first-degree rape and first-degree sexual offense.
