North Carolina. He has a degree in Economics
from Davidson College, a Juris Doctor Law Degree
from Wake Forest University and a post-graduate
law degree in Taxation from the University of
Florida’s elite school of tax. He began his
career as in-house counsel for a major publicly

in 1986 with the Gastonia law firm of Garland &
Alala where he became a partner in 1989. In 1995
he moved his practice to Concord. While many

his peers – the highest rating for legal competence and
ethics.

Nancy Smith

Nancy Smith was among the first wave of

She quickly became a beloved fixture in
Concord, first working at Cabarrus
Academy (now the Cannon School) and then
in the trust department at First Charter
Bank. Nancy has almost twenty years’
experience in estate and trust
administration, estate planning, wills,
powers of attorney and healthcare
advance directives. Clients love the
personal attention that Nancy brings to

Pamela Stienbarger
Paralegal
Pamela
Stienbarger, a native of Pennsylvania, came to the firm from
Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft in Charlotte where she worked
as a Legal Assistant. Pam is perhaps the first person
clients deal with when they contact the law firm. Pam is
definitely a “people person” and is very good at making
clients feel at home in their dealings with the firm. When
clients have a problem, they often just pick up the phone
and call Pam for help in locating documents, getting
documents recorded, and scheduling appointments.
