also known as Zachary M. Underwood
In his experience practicing family law, Raleigh divorce attorney Zachary M. Underwood has found that when someone is going through a separation or divorce, they are dealing with more than just the end of a marriage. They also are coping with the loss of their best friend.
“It is at that moment they need someone who will be there for them, who will listen to their story, and who will support them through this trying process,” Mr. Underwood said. “I enjoy being there for my clients and making them feel supported and cared for.”
When listing his greatest strengths as an attorney, Mr. Underwood puts his dedication to preparation at the very top.
“No matter what it is I am doing, I want to be prepared,” he said. “If we have an upcoming hearing, mediation, or even a simple telephone conference, I am going to be prepared and ready to handle whatever may come up.”
Mr. Underwood is honest and to the point. He’s also dedicated to doing whatever he can to help his clients transition to the next stage of their lives.
“You are always going to receive my best possible work,” he said, “and I am going to do it as efficiently and effectively as possible. This is always a tough process, but when it is done, my goal is for each of my clients to look back and think that my guidance made all the difference.”

When I first reached out to Zach, I was more seeking guidance than looking to retain a lawyer. I was in a sticky situation and just needed to know what could legally be done on my end, without causing legal issues. After meeting with him twice in purely advice seeking meetings, I reached a point of n...

He gave tough, sound advice. I was in the right, she had cheated. I worked, she didn’t. She changed the locks, I didn’t. Long story short, I wanted things to end peacefully, but also get what I deserved (everything I own and worked for). He did just that. No alimony, signed away rights to house...

I hired Mr. Underwood to handle my divorce and custody dispute. In the beginning I felt that he really cared about my case, but about a month after he was retained, I noticed that nothing was moving forward. In my "status" letter from Zach, he claimed my wife was going to be served with the divorce...
