Experienced Attorneys

Our criminal defense practice includes a lawyer who is a former prosecutor. Our law firm also includes attorneys who practice in areas of the law other than criminal law in North Carolina and South Carolina, including personal injury, real estate law, business law, family law, and intellectual property. When a criminal matter touches on another area of law, our diverse group of attorneys often possesses the necessary knowledge and resources in-house to address all of the legal issues involved in the case.

Diverse Clientele

Our clients include tourists, students, minimum-wage workers, working professionals and corporate executives. We welcome inquiries from potential new clients, and are prepared to give your case the attention and careful analysis that it deserves. Your future may depend on our ability to advise and defend you to the best of our ability — and we never forget that or take a case casually.

Three Offices Serving a Wide Area

From our offices in Tabor City, Whiteville and Little River, we reach out to clients throughout the Grand Strand area. Contact us to schedule an initial consultation with an attorney in the Myrtle Beach area.

People-Oriented North Carolina and South Carolina Lawyers

It has been said of our attorneys that they will "bend over backward to help a client." Attorneys of the firm work hard to educate clients on the issues involved in their cases and prepare them to make the right decisions about the direction of their cases.

We also work hard to stay up to date in our legal practice areas, respect our clients' humanity and contribute positively to our communities. Contact the The McGougan Law Firm to schedule an initial consultation on a DWI arrest or any other criminal matter.
