The skilled attorneys at Coltrane & Overfield PLLC have been working to strengthen communities in North Carolina by providing sound legal advice for decades. Our legal team takes pride in its track record of helping families and businesses enter new phases through a variety of means. We know that the needs of our communities are varied, and we have worked to create a practice that caters to those diverse needs.
At Coltrane & Overfield PLLC, we understand expanding or establishing your business through real estate can be a complex and overwhelming process without the help of an experienced real estate attorney. Our attorneys are well-known among their peers for their thorough approach to conducting commercial real estate transactions and litigating complex real estate matters.
As anyone who has been through closing on a property and developed cramps in their hand after signing documents for 15 minutes straight can tell you, real estate purchases are very complex. From title searches and credit checks to inspections, there is a lot of activity in the lead-up to the closing date.
Family law matters often involve a drastic life change for most of the parties involved. At Coltrane & Overfield PLLC, our attorneys understand the gravity of family law and can guide you through these difficult family issues. Coltrane & Overfield PLLC is well-known in North Carolina for handling family cases with efficiency and meticulous care.
North Carolina law does not favor one parent over the other in determining these arrangements. The law presumes that both parents should contribute financially and be involved in their children's lives. The court uses the best interest of the child as the primary factor to determine custody and support arrangements, but the wishes of each parent are also taken into consideration.

I am a real estate attorney in this area who needed to choose another lawyer to handle my personal closing. I choose John Overfield. John is an excellent attorney. He professionally handles each matter with knowledge and skill. I highly recommend John.

Had a great experience with John Overfield. The closing process on our new home was a breeze and was very well presented to us. Only lasted about 20 minutes!

I have been doing business with John Overfield for over a decade. While he was building his practice, he would always take my calls or return them if not in the office. He's professional, polite, and even if he doesn't handle the type of law I'm searching for, he'll gladly supply me with a number of attorneys better able to assist me.

I found his rates to be affordable and the quality of his work was exactly what I had in mind. To ensure he gets my messages, I always email him rather than call now. His firm is busy and I understand I'm not his only client but I&apos

Coltrane prides himself on getting cases mediated. If you are looking for a quick, in front of the judge attorney, he is not your guy. His office repeatedly offered to handle the other attorney's court date changes and billed me for it. I will never recommend this firm.

This law firm handled the legal documents for a real estate transaction. I often had to follow up myself on things that were supposed to happen. I found the communication from the law firm to be minimal.
I had asked the law firm to order a survey of the property, which is one of their responsibilities. And ONE MONTH later, it still had not been done. I wrote to inquire about the survey and I received a very condescending email from John Overfield that began with "Bless your heart!" and he explained to me all the things that his law firm does NOT do in this type of real estate transaction.

If you want to hire an underhanded attorney with little moral and who has no problem commiting perjury, Charles Coltrane is the man to hire. He was sucessful on helping my morally bankrupt brother and sister in law continue their campaign to alienate my daughter from both me and her father. This man truly has low morals out of all the lawyers in Guilford county
