Navigating legal matters requires expert guidance and a strategic approach.
Montgomery Legal PLLC is a veteran-owned Asheville practice serving families in Western North Carolina. Family cases here are heard in District Court for Buncombe County (the 28th Judicial District) and in neighboring mountain counties under the same Chapter 50 framework. We provide personalized legal work, not a one-size process, in family law, estate planning, and dispute resolution.

Estate Planning Solutions Tailored to Your Needs
Taking proactive measures to ensure that our affairs are in order and our loved ones are protected is essential for peace of mind. Wills, powers of attorney, and advance directives give your family a clearer path when they need one, including when a Western North Carolina home, accounts, and beneficiary forms need to work together.
Alternative Dispute Resolution
More than 80% of cases do not reach trial. Mediation and other ADR methods can lead to more favorable, cost-effective, and humane outcomes than traditional litigation. Sometimes court cannot be avoided. When it can, we seek to resolve matters in a way that is right for you, not for our bottom line.
How we work
- A first conversation about facts, goals, and what actually needs attention now.
- Written agreements and court filings prepared from those facts, not from a generic script.
- Mediation and settlement when they fit; hearing and trial preparation when they do not.
- Clear next steps so you are not left guessing what happens after the meeting.
