Litigation Practice Group

Johnston, Allison & Hord provides a broad range of litigation services for all of our clients, whether individuals, corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, trusts or estates. Through listening to clients, our attorneys achieve a level of understanding that empowers them to develop litigation strategies designed to meet particular needs and goals. We have a proud history of delivering services which are not only timely and effective, but also cost efficient. While our attorneys approach litigation with a commitment to aggressively pursue and protect the interests of our clients, we nevertheless search for and develop alternative and, at times, innovative means for resolving disputes.

Our Litigation Practice Group has extensive experience and has demonstrated a record of success in both state and federal court, which includes cases before the North Carolina Supreme Court, North Carolina Court of Appeals and Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. Our attorneys draw from the expertise of the firm's other practice groups (corporate, commercial real estate, health care, estate planning, tax, banking and finance, construction and collections/creditors' rights) to handle various areas of litigation in the most effective and efficient manner possible.
