About

The lawyers of Yates McLamb and Weyher are proud to celebrate the firm’s 35th anniversary in 2018.  Although we were founded as a practice specializing in civil litigation and appellate practice, our expertise has expanded to cover a broad range of litigation and administrative matters in healthcare, construction, products liability, commercial disputes, alternative dispute resolution and virtually every possible kind of tort claim. Our lawyers are licensed in North Carolina, Virginia, and South Carolina.

Attorneys in our professional liability group have successfully defended doctors, nurses, hospitals, nursing homes and pharmacies in lawsuits of all kinds. Our attorneys include a Board Certified physician and a registered nurse, and our long experience representing healthcare providers gives us special insight into the specialties in which our clients practice and the culture in which they live and work.

Our general liability lawyers represent construction companies, manufacturers, property owners, schools and businesses, in the most difficult and high profile cases in the state. Our clients retain us to represent them after massive plant explosions, catastrophic fires, building collapses, damage to electrical circuits, and allegations of environmental damage. We have experience with suits alleging mold infestation, lead paint exposure, premises liability, inadequate security, and product defects. Throughout the firm’s history, we have represented parties in automobile accidents and roadway construction cases. Our practice also includes a wide range of insurance coverage issues including bad faith claims.
