I have been an attorney for more than 34 years. My practice is limited to representing consumers who have debt issues and consumer complaints. I am a federally designated Debt Relief Agency under the United States Bankruptcy Laws. I assist people with finding solutions to their debt problems, including, where appropriate, assisting them with the filing of petitions for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code. I also help people resolve their disputes as a mediator. I am admitted to practice at all levels of the North Carolina court system and all of the United States District Courts and Bankruptcy Courts in North Carolina.
I began the practice of law in the State of Texas in 1986. I relocated to North Carolina with my family in 1999, and became licensed to practice law in North Carolina in 2000.
My hours are flexible and are by appointment only. I offer early morning and early evening consultations when necessary. I do not accept "walk-in's".

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

With much pleasure, I endorse Attorney Lynn Coleman. She has both a deep and broad knowledge of NC substantive law--torts, property, contracts, business law, etc.--as well as civil procedure. She knows a tenable case when she sees one, and her legal analyses are among the best available on Avvo (read them for confirmation). She is a highly-skilled problem solver, and a seminal resource to North Carolinians with legal issues to resolve. I highly recommend her.
