North Carolina Local Counsel and Camp Lejeune Services in Raleigh, NC

We have extensive experience serving as local counsel in North Carolina for national risk management counsel, coordinating counsel, general counsel, litigation counsel, and class actions counsel based in other states. Given our regular appearances before judges and courts throughout North Carolina and our experience with local rules of procedure and practice, our firm is ideally situated for whatever local counsel needs you may have.

Our local counsel lawyers are admitted to practice before all North Carolina State Courts, the North Carolina Business Court, and federal courts in the Western, Middle, and Eastern Districts of North Carolina. Whether it’s an association so you can make a special attorney appearance in North Carolina’s federal courts or so you can appear pro hoc vice in North Carolina state courts, we can help.

Please contact us to discuss your potential needs so our local counsel attorneys can address whether an hourly rate, flat fee, or contingency fee makes the most sense for your case.

Camp Lejeune Justice Act

Tragically, many veterans and their families were harmed by the toxic water contamination from Camp Lejeune located in North Carolina. However, given the passage of time, our firm understands that victims of toxic water exposure at Camp Lejeune may have relocated after service, been stationed in a different part of the country, or moved from North Carolina for a variety of other reasons. We believe justice should have no borders.

Though victims may live elsewhere, the lawsuits for compensation under the Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022 can only be filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. For out-of-state victims or their attorneys, it is necessary to engage a licensed North Carolina attorney (often referred to as “local counsel”) to facilitate the efficient filing and prosecution of these claims.

Our law firm has experience assisting non-residents and out-of-state counsel with Camp Lejeune claims. Depending on your needs or the volume of cases your firm may have already engaged, we are associated with partner firms who are involved with the Camp Lejeune legislative and steering committees and are leading the fight in our state for the compensation of these veterans and their families.

North Carolina Local Counsel Fees

As part of our commitment to upfront and transparent pricing, our typical fee for serving as local counsel is a contingency percentage (between 15%-25%) of the recovery for out-of-state counsel. However, please contact us to discuss your case and potential needs so we can address whether an hourly rate, flat fee, or contingency fee makes more sense for your case.

Use of Our Mobile Law Office

If you represent a community organization that could benefit from the use of a mobile meeting space or are another professional interesting in expanding your reach to provide essential services to different audiences or in different spaces, we can help.

Whether it’s for community outreach, voter registration, your next fundraiser, or you’d just like to ride-a-long with us, our 33ft overhauled and retrofitted mobile office was designed to meet those needs. If you are committed to improving your community and there’s something we can do to facilitate those goals, we’re ready to pitch in. Subject to some administrative red tape (and that you invite us to whatever fun event you’re having), we are happy to offer this service free of charge.
