Criminal Defense 60%

Advocating for good folks who find themselves accused in criminal court.

60%
Drug Crime 25%

Often the biggest issue in a drug case is whether there has been an illegal search, seizure, or arrest. I go through every case with a fine-toothed comb to find places where the officers have themselves broken the law in the search for drugs.

25%
Cannabis Law 10%

Caught with some weed? Depending on the amount the cops found, marijuana possession in NC can be either a misdemeanor or a felony. However, with CBD & other similar cannabis products, it may be more difficult to prove your joint was really illegal.

10%
Violent Crime 5%

There are many types of assault cases (Assault and Battery, Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Assault on a Female, etc.), and each one carries a different weight of sentencing, as well as a different strategy needed to fight back and win

A TRUE LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE

My experience with Mr Kite was professional and impressive. Throughout my experience with the judicial system and the patience I had exercise with other legal representatives. Mr Kite has exceeded my expectations, and achieved a standard of legal practice that I now come to expect. Constantly commun...icating details at previous moments, adjusting timelines for reasonable situations, a non prejudice view for an spontaneous circumstance. Little things that matter in this stressful episodes in the ever changing world. Other lawyers will say they care...then they don't. They will create excuses, maneuver your story that do not fit the role of an individual,or even manipulate your feelings, only to gaslight your downfall. Andrew Kite is a stand up individual who represents the public interest. An honest respectful and responsive lawyer who will give you pride in justice.

Amazing & Caring Attorney

As someone who does not know their way around the legal system, I am certainly glad that I hired Andy. Not only was he very responsive, but he was so kind and considerate of my situation. It was nice to have a lawyer who was so willing to help and assist me wherever possible - whether it be questions... regarding how the court system works/my specific case or even just checking in on me anytime he saw me in the courtroom for a separate matter. If I could hire him for anything in the future, I definitely would. He knows the law and the possible defenses the other party may have and will absolutely fight for his clients to ensure the best outcome for them.

A caring human being

I was out of work, loosing my home when the court appointed Andrew as my lawyer simply because I had no money I had lost my job due to covid-19, I was down in a bad predicament I had always heard court appointed attorney's didn't do much for you they just showed up and stood beside you but not Andrew... he was there for me he fought for the best deal he could get me,he returned every phone call, He talked to me in plain point blank language , so there were no surprises, I would recommend Andrew Kite to anyone, he is there for you, he's a intelligent caring young man , he will go far. Thank You Andrew. Tim
