Family Law

Grossly underestimated the charges and quoted me 5K for my case which ended up costing me 12K to loose my case. I had to retain another more knowledgeable in the end. Don't waste your time and money. Do not trust this lawyer with your custody case.

Obtaining property under false pretenses

William Smith is a great and erudite counsellor. He proved me innocent despite the Overwhelming discovery and charges brought against me. Stating the facts, he iterated the State of North Carolina has no strong case against me highlighting the elements of false pretenses. I am a free man today and al...l the charges Dismissed and Dropped because of brazing brilliance and tenacity. He is a Lawyer to watch out for.

Great Caring Lawyer

Gray was amazing every step of the way. He always took or returned emails and phone calls in a timely manner. He was highly understanding of the law and its small idiosyncrasies. He was caring and understanding also of the fact that court cases can be emotional, but he took the time to explain things... and calm me down.

Mr. Norman

Gray hands down is the man. I retained gray through a family court setting for a domestic issue. He guided as well as pulled me thru a restraining order and then to have somewhat fake allocations/ charges dropped bcuz he found me a way to work toward the issue (s) charged with. After the necessary ti...me to complete programs gray was able to get all charges dropped for me. Now I can move on with life and toward custody for my children which mean the most to me. Thanks again gray for outstanding counsel and great advice!!! I will strongly advise any one needing great, smart, outstanding and direct counsel to definitely contact gray smith. Thanks again brother!
