A private or business-related legal dispute can cause enormous stress, disrupt your daily life and threaten your financial security. When your family, home, investments or business are threatened by a legal dispute, we can help.

At the Pinehurst law firm of Clarke, Phifer, Vaughn, Brenner & McNeill you will find a team of attorneys with more than 100 years of combined experience. Whether you are considering filing a lawsuit to assert your rights and protect your interests or you are a defendant in pending or ongoing civil litigation, we can provide intelligent legal advice and dedicated, aggressive representation.

Attorneys With Broad-Based Experience in Civil Litigation
We have represented more than a thousand individuals, businesses, and other organizations in civil matters involving:

• Automobile accidents and personal injury claims
• Contract disputes and other business law matters
• Construction disputes representing both homeowners and builders
• Real estate matters involving ownership, boundaries and zoning
• Debtor/creditor disputes and collection actions
• Caveat proceedings to set aside or uphold a will

When our clients have been injured we explain the actions and remedies that are available and help select options that best fit the situation.  When defending clients we raise all appropriate defenses.  In lawsuits we use Subpoenas and other procedures such as Request for Production of Documents and Depositions to discover information in the possession of opponents that can be used to prosecute or defend the case.  When necessary we associate expert witnesses to address such issues as causation and damages.

Many cases can be resolved without filing lawsuits, and some small cases can be resolved early on through arbitration.  Larger cases are often settled in mediation, before trial.  In all cases we help clients resolve matters as quickly and cost efficiently as possible.

It is always an advantage to have an attorney who has the knowledge and experience to accurately evaluate and strategically handle the case, and who has a reputation for aggressively and successfully representing clients in court.
