About:
I am a former Marine, (1982-1986) who began practicing Federal Criminal law in 2001 in New York City. In 2004 I was admitted to the North Carolina Bar and have been a practicing trial attorney ever since. I say "trial attorney", because that is what I am. Whether you have a complex criminal felony, a misdemeanor, a DWI, or a domestic case; if I cannot reach a reasonable conclusion with opposing counsel, I am always prepared to empanel a jury and plead your case. With nearly 19 years of Criminal, Domestic and Civil trial experience, both in North Carolina and in New York, there are not many situations I haven't seen. This may be the first time you have needed a lawyer. You may be anxious, or confused, or terrified about your situation. Give me a call and rest assured I will put my experience and proven ability to work for you.

"🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I had an amazing experience with Bettis Law Firm. Lee and Kelly are truly incredible—they really care about the people behind the case, not just the case itself. They’re compassionate, understanding, and worked hard to give me the best possible outcome. On top of that, their prices are the best in the area. Highly recommend to anyone needing a dedicated and caring legal team!"

"Retained Mr. Bettis, and worth every penny! Very helpful and compassionate firm. Court is so stressful, I’ve retained him for two cases, and feel much better about everything working with the Bettis Law Firm. Team is very knowledgeable and walked me through everything step by step with patience :)"
