Honest Advice. Strategic Representation.
We're In Your Corner
Choosing a lawyer can be one of the most important decisions you ever make. Whether you’re dealing with a criminal charge, a traffic offense, a family law matter, or a personal injury, the attorney you trust to handle your case can make a huge difference in your life and in your future.
Many of the people our law firm works with have never needed to hire an attorney before. They don’t know what to expect or what type of outcome to hope for.
We believe it is absolutely essential to get an honest assessment of your case right from the start. Because the truth is: Not every criminal case is going to end with a dramatic jury verdict of not guilty. Very few divorces end with one person getting exactly what they want. And not every person who is hurt in a car accident gets a $50 million settlement.
In reality, each person’s best-case scenario is different. You need a knowledgeable attorney to sit down with you, go over all the facts of your case, explain your legal options, and answer all your questions.
We are a well-established law firm, fighting for the rights of Raleigh residents since 1998. Our skilled attorneys have more than a half a century of combined legal experience.
Our respected litigators know their way around a courtroom. Opposing attorneys recognize that we do not take cases just to reach a quick and easy settlement or plea deal.
Our team gives each case the individualized attention it deserves. We don’t take a cookie-cutter approach to solving problems. Instead, we build strong and persuasive arguments based on the unique facts and circumstances of your case.
With five attorneys and a robust legal support staff, we have the manpower to tackle the toughest cases. Our collaborative approach means everyone on our team is looking at your case from different angles to help develop a sophisticated legal strategy.
We are straight-shooters with a reputation for being sincere in our dealings with clients. Although we always fight to win, we want to prepare our clients for the challenges we may face along the way.
We believe that how we treat our clients is just as important as the verdicts we win. We keep our clients informed and return calls promptly. We want you to know that your case is important to us.
Our attorneys stand ready to hear your story and give you the legal advice you need to take the next steps.
Every case is unique, and so is every attorney. At Kurtz & Blum, our team of Raleigh-based attorneys brings decades of combined experience in criminal defense, traffic offenses, and family law. Each attorney has a distinct approach to legal representation, whether you need a skilled litigator to fight for you in court or a strategic negotiator to resolve a family law matter.
We know that hiring a lawyer can feel overwhelming—especially if it’s your first time dealing with legal issues. That’s why our entire legal team works together to ensure you get the right attorney for your case, based on your specific legal needs.
And what makes our team even more special? Our paw-torney at law – Augie. Known around Raleigh as the “Law Dog,” Augie takes a team-based approach to every case, ensuring justice is always served with a side of belly rubs. Whether he’s offering comfort during tough cases or greeting clients with a wagging tail, Augie brings warmth, loyalty, and a touch of fun to our practice.
Most of the clients who come to us are concerned about whether they can afford an attorney. Some wonder whether they need an attorney at all. We understand that hiring a lawyer is a big decision, and we will be upfront with you if we don’t think you need one.
When it comes to legal fees, we strive to make our services as affordable as possible:
Criminal cases are handled on a flat-fee basis. We can work with you to set up a payment plan. Or we accept payment through Visa and MasterCard.
Family law cases are typically billed hourly. You can pay by credit card, or we can set up a payment plan that meets your needs.
Personal injury cases are handled on a contingency basis. This means our lawyers do not collect a fee unless you are compensated for your injury.
Our attorneys stand ready to hear your story and give you the legal advice you need to take the next steps.
