Divorce
Divorce issues can be resolved between you and your spouse without going to court. An uncontested divorce occurs when both parties mutually agree upon matters such as child custody, property distribution, debt, alimony, and more. When you and your spouse have agreed to the divorce terms, a judge will approve and finalize it. Nevertheless, these matters are often emotionally challenging, time consuming and even cooperative spouses may require legal guidance over these matters to ensure the final agreements protect their interests.

Divorce
Divorce issues can be resolved between you and your spouse without going to court. An uncontested divorce occurs when both parties mutually agree upon matters such as child custody, property distribution, debt, alimony, and more. When you and your spouse have agreed to the divorce terms, a judge will approve and finalize it. Nevertheless, these matters are often emotionally challenging, time consuming and even cooperative spouses may require legal guidance over these matters to ensure the final agreements protect their interests.
Child Support
Child support aims to put the child of a couple who do not live together in the same financial position they would have enjoyed if both parents lived together. They deserve the law to give them every opportunity for the money they are entitled to under the child support statutes in North Carolina. Further, the state is set up to collect and send payments (and punish when payments are not made) for little or no cost to you. The â€œwaiverâ€ of child support should not â€œbuyâ€ a person’s custody.
Child Custody and Visitation
Going through a divorce and discussing details like child custody and expenses might be a stressful and time-consuming experience. In the process of figuring out vital aspects of a divorce, like a childâ€™s custody, there are various financial situations you…
Adoption
Covers a wide range of ways to bring a person into a family. This area of law is full of legal language and bureaucratic puzzles, from stepparent adoptions to international adoptions to adult adoption.
Paternity
Premarital Agreement
Disclose all of your finances. If your spouse finds out that youâ€™re hiding assets, the prenuptial agreement could get tossed out by the court.
Guardianship
Once an individualâ€™s mental capacity is diminished, guardianship may become a necessity. If this is the case, it is still beneficial to go through the court process and seek to be appointed as your loved oneâ€™s guardian so that responsibility does not fall to a stranger.
Spousal Support
Divorce is never easy in courtrooms across North Carolina. Divorce issues like the division of property, payment of alimony, and child custody are decided through the adversarial process, pitting one spouse against the other. The traditional adversarial process has been around for as long as the divorce process, but an alternative way of handling your divorce is now available.
Annulment
. Unlike a divorce, which is the dissolution of a legitimate marriage, an annulment is a judicial declaration that the marriage never existed. These issues are legal ones (for example, one party was already married) and a couple of odd ones (the wife lied about pregnancy).

Criminal Defense
At King Law, we handle a wide variety of different criminal law cases. Our goal is to help build a strong defense for our clients as we defend their rights and pursue the second chance they deserve.
DUI/DWI
Anyone facing a traffic offense or DWI / DUI charge can receive legal services from any of our western North Carolina or upstate South Carolina locations. King Law Offices provides efficient and effective courtroom defense for traffic matters and other driving violations. Our team of South Carolina and North Carolina traffic lawyers defend clientsâ€™ legal rights and financial situation while protecting their driving privileges.
Traffic Violations
No big deal and simply pay the fine. This is one of the biggest mistakes that a driver can make. A person should never just pay the fines for a ticket, whether itâ€™s for speeding, reckless driving or running through a stop sign, without at least consulting with a traffic attorney. Your traffic citation can result in your license being suspended, your insurance rates skyrocketing, and your driving record ruined.
Sex Crimes
A domestic relationship is not only a marriage relationship. It can be a relationship consisting of a current or former spouse, roommates, or people who are dating or have dated. Events that occur between the examples above, such as attempting to or causing bodily harm, placing the victim or their family in fear of bodily injury or harassment leading to emotional distress, or committing any sexual assaults, are incidents that can be charged as domestic violence.
Fraud
Robbery
Burglary
Breaking and entering charges can lead to very serious penalties in North and South Carolina. The prosecution may even pursue felony charges when certain facts are present in your case such as a charge of willful and wanton injury to real property. For example, the issue of criminal intent can be critical to your case. If the prosecution argues that you illegally entered a home with an intent to commit a felony, your breaking and entering case could lead to first-degree burglary charges, which come with much more severe penalties.
White Collar Crimes
The penalties for these crimes can include fines, house arrest, probation, restitution of stolen funds, and jail time. These crimes can also have a negative impact on your livelihood, professional reputation, and future employment prospects. Our attorneys understand the importance of a strong defense against white-collar crime charges. Even if you have not yet been charged with a crime, you should strongly consider talking to a criminal law attorney if you are being questioned by authorities or if your business is being investigated.
Theft
Misdemeanors
You may be able to seek an expungement for certain misdemeanors or felonies on your criminal record. Our attorneys can explain the process and tell you whether your offenses may qualify.
Embezzlement
Drug Crimes
Drug possession charges can lead to fines, jail time, and a conviction on your criminal record. Our criminal defense attorneys can help you argue for a reduced sentence or attempt to avoid jail time in some cases.
Assault
Assault and battery can be a misdemeanor or felony in North or South Carolina. The penalties can vary from a small fine and 30 days in jail to a maximum penalty of ten or more years in prison. Many factors can determine the severity of your assault charges...
Probation Violation
Probation violations can lead to consequences which range in degree of severity. These consequences can be severe. The punishment for violating your probation will depend on the violation, the terms of your probation, and your criminal record. Potential punishments include…
Shoplifting
Theft crimes can range from a simple shoplifting charge to a felony burglary offense. Regardless of what offense youâ€™ve been charged with, your criminal law attorney should provide a strong defense to avoid or minimize the penalties and negative consequences associated with a theft charge. We also handle false pretense charges as well as other property crimes.
Restraining Order
At King Law, we understand that cases such as these can be complicated as emotions run high when individuals have or had a personal relationship. Our North Carolina domestic violence and assault lawyers are here to provide trusted legal support for those charged with domestic violence as well as those who are victims of domestic violence. We also help with Temporary Restraining Orders & Preliminary Injunctions. Keep in mind that these situations are very time-sensitive, which is why it is crucial to reach out to our criminal defense attorneys as soon as possible.
Money Laundering
Kidnapping
Law enforcement takes domestic violence charges very seriously in North Carolina. If you have been accused of committing domestic violence, assault or kidnapping, King Lawâ€™s criminal defense lawyers are prepared to protect your rights under North Carolina laws. Our legal team is experienced in these sensitive matters and will advocate tirelessly for you through the court procedure to obtain the best possible result. Conversely, if you are a victim of domestic violence or communicating threats, we will help you get the required protection you deserve through the court system.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Formation
Business Disputes

The focus of our business lawyers is to help your organization in North Carolina or South Carolina succeed by removing legal obstacles which may stand in your way of achieving critical objectives, and to help you proactively plan to minimize risk.

At King Law, we have been representing small business owners for decades. We represent sole proprietorships, general partnerships, and limited liability companies. Whether you need assistance in starting your small business, organizing your business, or managing liability concerns within your existing business, we can help.

Real Estate Litigation
I have dealt with many law firms for real estate matters, estate settlements, etc. over the years but King Law is far and above the best in the business. They are prompt, professional and thorough. They are a pleasure to deal with. If you need legal services I would highly recommend King Law!
Premises Liability
Customers who are injured while visiting a business office, retail store, or other commercial establishments may be able to file a premises liability lawsuit. Many of these cases involve â€œslip and fallâ€ injuries due to wet floors or other dangerous conditions.
Construction Litigation
Construction projects often involve many different parties, including contractors, subcontractors, homeowners, developers, and suppliers. When a construction dispute arises, our attorneys can provide legal guidance and help you protect your business or property interests.
Easement
Land Use and Zoning
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
Our attorneys can help you seek a resolution to your landlord-tenant matters. Contact King Law to schedule a consultation to discuss your legal issues.
Property Damage
Landlords and tenants both have rights and responsibilities under the terms of a lease agreement and North Carolina law. Our attorneys can help with disputes related to evictions, security deposits, property damage, or breach of the lease agreement.

Personal Injury
Our personal injury lawyers are here to help you seek compensation for your injuries. If youâ€™ve been involved in a car accident, been harmed by a defective product, or are recovering from a dog bite injury, we can offer assistance during this difficult time and pursue the best possible settlement for your injuries.
Auto Accidents
Medicaid Planning
As the need for long-term care arises and clients lack private insurance or the ability to pay out of pocket for care, Medicaid planning may be an alternative for them. Medicaid will pay some long-term care costs but is viewed as a last resort alternative given its complex eligibility requirements and strict rules regarding the ownership of assets.
Dog Bites
Being attacked by a dog is not only a traumatic experience, but it can also cause significant injury. If you or a loved one have been attacked by a dog, contact an attorney immediately to ensure that your rights are protected. You can aid your legal team in building your case by documenting your injury with photographs and journaling your treatment and recovery.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Schedule your consultation to sit down with one of our dedicated estate planning lawyers. Call us at 888-748-KING (5464) or fill out our online form to schedule your consultation with an attorney.
Wills
Executors are charged with filing the last will and testament with the court, identifying all assets and debts of the estate, paying debts and funeral expenses of the deceased from the estate, and distributing the remaining assets according to the terms of the will. The probate process generally takes about three months but can take over a year in certain cases. In a process this complex, it is easy to make mistakes. In the event of certain mistakes, such as late filings or incorrect distribution of assets, the executor may be held personally liable. Our attorneys can help you avoid risking this personal liability and can provide legal advice and assistance throughout the probate process.
Trusts
A trust is a legally created entity that can be used to hold and manage assets. A trust can be established to come into existence during your lifetime; this is called an inter vivos trust or a living trust. A trust can also be established to come into existence upon your death; this is called a testamentary trust. People choose to establish trusts for a wide variety of reasons. Common purposes include...
Power of Attorney
Durable Power of Attorney: A durable power of attorney allows you to appoint an individual who becomes your â€œagent.â€ This agent essentially stands in your shoes and is qualified to make financial decisions for you, sign contracts on your behalf and otherwise manage your obligations. Durable powers of attorney are very useful because they provide a trusted individual with broad power to ensure your bills and taxes are paid, your contractual obligations are fulfilled, and that your familyâ€™s needs are provided for. Durable powers of attorney are also somewhat customizable in that you can specify when they become effective, or they can be drafted to be effective immediately.
Probate

Tax Law
Debt Collection
Both federal and state laws forbid creditors from taking certain actions when collecting a debt. The North Carolina Debt Collection Act prohibits debt collectors from doing any of the following...
