Government & Public Official Defense
Municipal Law Representation in North Carolina
Wilson Helms & Cartledge represents the government organizations and public officials of Winston-Salem, Forsyth County, and beyond when private individuals or businesses bring claims or lawsuits for municipal liability against them.
Our law firm's results for government organizations and municipal groups are a reflection of our dedication to principles of fairness and justice:
- We represented the City of Winston-Salem when a minor drowned.
- We cleared a police officer who was in an accident during a high-speed chase.
- We defended the City of Greensboro against a fraudulent injury claim.
Wilson Helms & Cartledge has over thirty years experience in defense law and serves Winston-Salem, Kernersville, Clemmons, Walkertown, High Point, Lexington, and surrounding cities, towns, and counties.
Our Courtroom Approach
Wilson Helms & Cartledge believes in agressive but ethical litigation tactics.
The firm knows that when government officials or public entities end up in court, the publicity alone can be nightmarish. The political pressure can make trials extremely stressful for our clients. We recognize that our clients in these situations are people who work hard regularly to serve the public and that can make accusations or claims even more stressful, which is why our lawyers are so tenacious in court.
The evidence we present and the arguments we assert have one aim—to make it as difficult as possible for the plaintiff to secure a judgment against the municipal authority we are defending.
When North Carolina municipalities, government entities, and public officials need legal defense, Wilson Helms & Cartledge has the experience and strength to fight for justice.
