Greg’s bread and butter is construction law, commercial leasing, and HOA disputes in the Carolinas. Greg particularly enjoys cases requiring visits to the field. One particularly hot and humid day (even by Florida standards), a client asked Greg to drop what he was doing, jump in the car, and attend an inspection of hot-mop asphalt operations on a five-story campus building. Since that day, Greg keeps a pair of boots and jeans in his office just in case.

Other cases have taken Greg to a noisy smoke-filled telephone boiler room being shut down by a court-appointed receiver; a federal detention center to consult with an inmate; a waste-water treatment plan to inspect concrete; a subdivision cul-de-sac, in the rain, for a rowdy HOA board meeting; a hurricane-flooded shopping center; the spa at one of North Carolina’s most recognized resorts; and countless HOA pools and clubhouses.

Greg is licensed to practice in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida. He is a South Carolina circuit court mediator and North Carolina superior court mediator. Greg has published many articles through the years and served as Managing Editor of the Sixth and Seventh editions of the North Carolina Construction Law Deskbook; the definitive treatise on construction law in North Carolina.

Greg became a board-certified construction law specialist in Florida in 2005; the first year such a certification was offered. Greg has regularly been included in Business North Carolina’s Legal Elite and in U.S News & World Report’s Best Lawyers.
