If you are facing any misdemeanor or felony charges in North Carolina, please contact the criminal defense law firm of Kurtz & Blum for a free initial consultation and case evaluation. Our defense attorneys defend clients charged with everything from possession or selling drugs to serious sex offense felonies, white collar crimes, and death penalty trials for murder.

We have successfully represented clients charged with all types of felony and misdemeanor crimes, including, but not limited to:

  • Property crimes such as burglary, breaking and entering, larceny, or arson
  • Crimes against the person such as robbery, assault, domestic violence, murder, gun or weapons violations, or child abuse
  • White collar crime such as embezzlement, obtaining property by false pretenses, and bank, wire, or Internet fraud
  • Sex crimes such as rape, taking indecent liberties with children, or statutory sex offenses
  • Drug crimes such as possession, manufacture, or trafficking of a controlled substance (i.e. marijuana, cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, etc.)
  • Traffic violations and drunk driving such as speeding tickets, moving violations, hit and run, and DWI

Whether you need a drug defense attorney to help you with a minor possession charge, an experienced trial lawyer to put together a murder defense, or an appeals lawyer who has successfully represented clients in the North Carolina Court of Appeals, contact a criminal defense attorney at Kurtz & Blum. We can also help you with expungement, the process of clearing your criminal record.

Our attorneys listen to your side of the story, point out strengths and weaknesses in the evidence, and advise you as to whether accepting a plea bargain or proceeding to trial would be in your best interests. We will fight fiercely for you at trial and exploit any weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. If a trial would not be in your best interests, we will negotiate with the prosecutor using all the tools in our arsenal to get the best possible deal for you without litigation.
