Practice Areas
The law offices of Reeves DiVenere Wright practice primarily in the
following areas:
PERSONAL INJURY / WRONGFUL DEATH
The Reeves Law Firm represents individuals and families involved in personal injury and wrongful death cases caused by the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of others. These cases can be difficult for plaintiffs in North Carolina, and not just because of their sensitive and emotional nature. Insurance companies want to limit their exposure or liability when a serious injury or wrongful death occurs. That is why clients hire defense attorneys whose job it is to aggressively minimize each aspect of the plaintiff's claim. Our experience has served our clients well, as we understand the games that insurance companies play. We are well-versed in the interpretation of insurance policy language and the litigation of personal injury and wrongful death claims. It is this expertise that allows our firm to handle all types of serious and catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death cases properly. CIVIL LITIGATION
Our civil litigation practice focuses on dispute resolution from the mediation conference to the courtroom. The lawyers at the Reeves Law Firm are frequently involved in jury and nonjury trials, as well as arbitration hearings and mediation conferences. Our practice philosophy is hands on involvement in every phase of the case, from drafting the pleadings through discovery and on to the trial and any appeal. For our clients, this means that our lawyers are not reluctant to go to the mat through trial if that is what it takes. But they also recognize that the cost of litigation is directly proportionate to the time it takes to get the matter resolved. FAMILY LAW
We have substantial experience in all issues of family law, including equitable distribution, child custody, alimony, divorce, child support, and adoption. It is these difficult disputes involving custody, visitation, and child support that we help parents and individuals involved in these cases to make sure that equitable an distribution is reached. It is our belief that an attorney with experience and knowledge can often help resolve these issues with less emotional harm and without them being forced into long and expensive litigation. After all, children should be protected to every extent possible from emotional harm. Our goal is to successfully resolve each emotional and legal challenge divorce presents. Criminal Law
The Reeves Law Firm is committed to the protection of our clients' rights, whether in the realm of civil or criminal law. We offer a full range of representation in all North Carolina criminal matters, including felonies, misdemeanors, and traffic matters.
