Administrative Law
At SMVT, we are experienced in guiding our clients through the maze of administrative proceedings and government regulation. Because we practice in the state capital, we can assist clients from anywhere before North Carolina’s administrative boards. Our lawyers can handle government relations from contracts to professional disciplinary proceedings.
Through the firm’s knowledge of advocacy and litigation, we provide clients with targeted strategies for resolving administrative issues — including, when necessary, action in state or federal court. We assist clients before the Office of Administrative Hearings, in lobbying for change, and lawsuits involving a licensing board or regulatory agency.

- Appraisal Board
- Architectural Licensing Board
