Our Values and History
Howard Stallings Law Firm’s North Carolina Property Insurance Lawyers
Four Decades of Unwavering Legal Commitment to North Carolina Residents and Businesses
Founded in 1983 by Cader Howard, our firm initially set out to provide client-focused legal services in Raleigh. The firm transformed into Howard Stallings Law Firm when Joe Stallings joined in 1987. From that point, our growth has been both steady and impressive, with offices now spanning Raleigh, New Bern, and Morehead City. Over the past 40 years, Howard Stallings Law Firm has consistently offered unwavering legal representation to individuals and businesses throughout eastern North Carolina.
Our team of property insurance lawyers boasts profound experience in North Carolina’s insurance laws, regulations, and court precedents. We utilize this extensive local knowledge and our rich experience to advocate fiercely for optimal outcomes in our clients’ cases.
Practicing predominantly within North Carolina, we have developed a deep understanding of both the legal and physical landscapes of our state. We are committed to guiding you through the intricacies of the legal system as you seek compensation for your property loss. Recognizing the stress and challenges you have faced, we ensure prompt and empathetic responses to all inquiries, typically within 24 hours or less. Our dedication to assisting fellow North Carolinians in the aftermath of catastrophes is unwavering, and our record of successful outcomes stands as a testament to our commitment.
Dedicated Representation for Policyholders in Property Insurance Disputes
We exclusively represent policyholders, including homeowners, homeowners’ associations, and commercial property owners across various sectors such as hospitality, religious institutions, culinary establishments, automotive dealerships, medical facilities, and more. Our focus is on clients who are grappling with insurance claim disputes following catastrophic losses. We do not represent insurance companies.
In our commitment to securing the settlements or payouts from insurance companies, we offer complimentary consultations. During these sessions, our property insurance lawyers will conduct a thorough review of your insurance policy and claim details. We aim to determine your coverage limits, assess the scope of your loss, and discuss the avenues available for recourse.
