Testimonials

Alice Stubbs is a ROCKSTAR!! I found Alice after several consultations with other attorneys and knew right away she was the one to handle my complex case. From the beginning, she truly listened, was compassionate about my situation, and provided strong legal expertise. Alice is sharp, insightful, and great at explaining the legal process. I felt like she had my back from the start, and I immediately felt comfortable and confident with whichever route we needed to take in the legal process. I can’t say enough great things about Alice and have recommended her to many people over the years.

It has been an honor to have Sonya Dubree represent me over the past two years during my divorce. With the support of Tharrington Smith and Steven Mansbery, Sonya expertly managed the complex financial aspects of my case, securing favorable outcomes like spousal support, contempt motions, and alimony. Despite delays caused by the defendant’s non-compliance, Sonya and Steven handled these challenges with professionalism, ultimately achieving significant victories. I am also grateful to Steven, Monica, and Carollyn for their contributions during my alimony trial. Sonya’s expert guidance, compassionate approach, and dedication were invaluable, providing me with hope for the future and peace as this chapter closes.

Jaye Meyer is regarded among the best family lawyers in the state. She is certainly a subject matter expert. I had the pleasure of working with her professionally on several matters prior to retaining her to handle my separation. She is extremely responsive (even responding to questions when the power was out across downtown Raleigh). Jaye is also very considerate of individual circumstances (such as the impact of decisions on kids) when evaluating potential options. I highly recommend her to anyone facing the difficult circumstance of a separation.

I recently used Tharrington Smith for a child custody case. Alice Stubbs and Jeff Russell both worked with me, and Alice represented me in court. Both of them were very dedicated to my case. They both did an amazing job of walking me through the process of what to expect in court on the day of the hearing. Jeff and Alice are both top-notch professionals. If you need assistance in the area of family law, give them a call! You won't be sorry!

I selected Lynn Burleson to handle my complex divorce and child custody case. His experienced knowledge of the law, commitment to my best interests, and rapid responses to all of my questions and concerns ensured that I received wise counsel during the lengthy process. Most importantly, he led his team including Casey Fidler and Fred Morelock to a successful conclusion on my behalf. I highly recommend Lynn Burleson...he cared.

Evan is a lawyer I highly recommend. He knows the law, the practical implications, and maintains the highest of ethics and professionalism.

Wish I could give more than 5 stars. I highly recommend Casey Fidler as well as Alice Stubbs at TharringtonSmith. They did a phenomenal job with my divorce case. My ex was not easy to work with but they exceeded my expectations coming through for me. Without them I wouldn’t have gotten the proper security that I needed and deserve.

The legal team at Tharrington Smith are experts in the area of education law. They are well versed and provide sound legal advice on both general education law and special education law. Mr. Adam Mitchell is our district's main attorney, and he has always represented our district with the utmost of integrity. He is very knowledgeable and thorough. We have also worked with other specialized legal experts at the firm, and can attest to the whole team's professionalism, timeliness, and outstanding accessibility. Tharrington Smith is a law firm that can be counted to handle all types of legal matters compassionately, ethically, and always within the scope of the law. In my opinion, Tharrington Smith is the best law firm in the state.

Russell resolved a complex legal situation with many moving parts in the most professional and respectful manner possible. The sensitive legal matter stemmed from a domestic scenario where the chances of a favorable resolution were not in my favor. He listened carefully, asked all the right questions, and demonstrated a deep understanding of how to navigate the legal system. Mr. Babb was patient, methodical, and highly effective in fully resolving the matter. I had many legal options, but I trusted Russell—and he delivered beyond my expectations. I highly recommend his services for any criminal matter and fully vouch for his effectiveness. You will not be disappointed if you hire Russell Babb as your attorney.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Tharrington Smith, especially with Melissa Hill. She immediately put me at ease and took the time to understand my case. Her ability to explain complex legal concepts simply was invaluable. Thanks to her guidance, we withdrew the request for a civil hearing, avoiding criminal proceedings. Melissa genuinely cared about my case and was a strong advocate. I highly recommend her and the team at Tharrington Smith!

Roger Smith and his team did an impeccable job handling my DWI case. This firm has also helped some family's speeding tickets as well. I highly recommend this law firm.

I was referred to Hill Allen by a colleague in North Carolina to represent the wife of my client, both targets of a federal fraud investigation. Hill quickly agreed to take on the case, mastered it in just a few days, and handled multiple issues flawlessly. He was a pleasure to work with—effective, knowledgeable, and dedicated. Hill is the complete package. While I didn't see him in front of a jury, I’m confident his smooth Southern charm would win over any juror. Having worked with some of the best trial lawyers, I would rank Hill among them.

I want to give a shout out to Mr Doug Kingsbury and Lacy Hansen. They are an awesome team. I have some serious things I had to work out in business and they helped me every step of that way. And I truly believe they got me the best outcome possible and I am on the straight and arrow and ready to go forward. Lacey stayed in touch with me and was there from beginning to the end. Thank you guys very much. Anyone that needs real help doesn't even think about calling someone else.

Tharrington Smith and Doug Kingsbery were recommended to me to assist with a business civil tax audit that turned into a criminal referral. From our first meeting until the settling of my case, Mr. Kingsbery's knowledge of these types of cases was immeasurable to assist me and my family through this process. I still have some work to do but I would not be on a positive path without this representation.

Lacy Hansen was an excellent attorney. I would highly recommend her. She was organized and dedicated as well as kind and compassionate towards me. This really helped ease the burden of emotional duress during the process. I can’t thank her enough for everything she has done to help me.

Gosh, I really don't know where to start. Let's just say that Mr. Kingsbery is an awesome tax attorney. He is very professional, upfront, reliable, and he knows his stuff when it comes to the law. I'm very happy with the outcome of my situation, because honestly I know I couldn't have done it without Mr. Kingsbery. Thanks again.

Melissa Hill was the best lawyer for my family. She was thorough, attentive and a blessing. I am grateful she was available when she was referred to us. You’re in great hands with Melissa leading the way!
