Years of great service Brian King has served as my lawyer in many capacities for over 10 years, consistently demonstrating expert knowledge and sound judgment in every case. I hired Brian to assist me with multiple legal business matters when I owned a company for 15 years, and he was my lawyer for two family law cases. In every instance, he is friendly, professional and clear about the options available in my cases. His advice is always compassionate, honest and trustworthy. Brian doesn't sugar-coated the truth to gain favor; instead, he ensures that I fully understand my options so I can make well-informed decisions. Whenever I need legal help or know someone who does,, King Law is always my go-to.

Brian King is knowledgeable, insightful and compassionate; he instills confidence. Bran King has provided me with both personal and professional legal advice and services. His knowledge of legal processes and insights into human nature instill confidence. I always believe that he is "in my corner." While always professional, he is extremely personable and compassionate. These attributes are critically important in our interactions. Legal matters can often be fraught, and his mien is especially effective at dispelling anxiety. He also has great sense of humor, which can also be a great asset when dealing with challenging and emotion laden issues. One is his great assets is his extraordinarily diverse and talented group of associates. The wide variety of specialization enables his firm to provide the right person with the right expertise for most any legal matter. In summary, I fell very fortunate to have access to his services. I might also add that he is committed to supporting his community and is engaged a number of nonprofit administrations and also participates in a variety of community activities for charitable organizations. It is especially reassuring to work with an attorney who cares about the people he serves.

Q. Is it illegal for a spouse to place a tracking device on a vehicle that is marital property?
A: Parties who are considering tracking their spouses’ movements can refer to North Carolina General Statute §14-196.3(b)(5). This statute both defines the state’s understanding of an electronic device and notes that to install such a device, the installer must have their name on the affiliated vehicle’s title.
