Civil Litigation

Resolving Complex Disputes for Individuals, Property Owners, and Community Stakeholders

Civil disputes can disrupt lives, delay development, and place personal and financial assets at risk. At Robinson & Lawing, LLP, our civil litigation team helps clients navigate these high-stakes situations with clarity, strategy, and a firm command of North Carolina law.

We represent property owners, real estate developers, homeowners' associations (HOAs and COAs), and individuals in litigation related to land use, zoning, construction, real estate, and eminent domain. We also provide day-to-day counsel and dispute resolution support to governing boards and property managers of community associations. Our attorneys are known for their courtroom experience, negotiation skills, and commitment to long-term client success.

We understand that civil disputes are often deeply personal. Whether the conflict involves a private boundary line, development rights, or damage caused by another’s negligence, we take the time to fully understand your position and pursue solutions that align with your goals. Some cases require litigation; others benefit from early intervention, mediation, or settlement planning. We help you make informed decisions at every stage of the process.

Our Civil Litigation Practice Covers:

• Land Use & Zoning – Challenging permit denials, zoning board decisions, or land use restrictions that impact ownership or development.
• Construction Disputes – Representing property owners and contractors in breach of contract claims, defect cases, and payment disputes.
• Eminent Domain & Condemnation – Defending property owners whose land is being seized or devalued by the government.
• Real Estate Disputes – Resolving issues over boundaries, easements, title, fraud, breach of sales contracts, or adverse possession.
• HOA/COA Services – Supporting community associations with governance, enforcement, and internal conflict resolution.

Mediation and Local Counsel Support

Many civil disputes benefit from resolution outside of court. At Robinson & Lawing, LLP, we offer trusted mediation services and serve as local counsel for out-of-state firms navigating North Carolina’s legal landscape. Whether the issue arises in state court or in federal courts across the Triad region, our familiarity with judicial expectations and procedures helps ensure an efficient, coordinated defense.
