Experienced Legal Representation
Sparrow Law Firm offers a hands-on approach focused on meeting clients' unique needs and goals in a variety of legal matters, including:
Traffic offenses and Criminal Defense
- Speeding Tickets and moving violations: Traffic tickets not only involve time and money initially, they will also drive your car insurance rates up in the long run and add points to your license. We will help you fight the ticket and save yourself from the hassle and expense of these consequences.
- Driver's license suspensions: Losing your driver's license can be crippling. With your driving privileges comes the ability to commute to and from work or school, the freedom to run errands as you please and the opportunity to transport your family. Without your license, your normal routine becomes anything but. We can fight to help you get your license back and/or prevent it from being suspended in the first place.
- Misdemeanors and felonies: We have handled cases ranging from simple traffic violations to assault, domestic violence, and murder.
- Alcohol offenses: We are prepared to zealously defend your constitutional rights if you have been accused of any alcohol-related offense, such as selling alcohol to minors, underage usage, fraudulent IDs, or driving while intoxicated.
- Drug offenses: We can help you explore your options after any drug-related arrest, including marijuana possession, drug distribution, or drug trafficking.
- Larceny: We defend people charged with shoplifting, credit card fraud, check fraud, embezzlement, robbery (both common law robbery and armed robbery), obtaining property by false pretenses and other forms of larceny.
- Expungements: We can help you determine if a Petition for Expunction is a viable option for you and will file the necessary paperwork.
Professional malpractice and Personal injury
- Legal malpractice: Did you lose valuable legal options because an attorney failed to file your claim and the statute of limitations has run? Contact our law office to discuss the parameters of legal malpractice.
- Medical malpractice: If you have been seriously injured as a result of medical malpractice, we will aggressively represent you and your family. We also help clients whose loved ones were neglected or abused at nursing homes.
- Car, truck and aviation accidents: We vigorously pursue compensation for victims of car accidents, 18-wheeler rollovers, and aviation accidents. We also file wrongful death lawsuits for surviving family members.
Out-of-State Residents
If you are from out-of-state and find yourself dealing with a legal matter in North Carolina, we can aggressively protect your rights. We are committed to being your advocate in the courtroom and may be able to keep you from having to appear at court hearings; many cases can be handled by a Waiver of Appearance. We offer this same assistance to clients who live in outstate North Carolina, where travel back to the Raleigh area would be a hardship.
