For Attorneys.

Other attorneys ask Samuel to come in as co-counsel or local counsel when a matter requires both courtroom experience and the ability to read the technical record as a technical person. He has tried cases to verdict, argued in NC Business Court, and spent 30 years building and operating the systems where business records actually live.

He handles the courtroom work, the technical record, and the deposition — not just the infrastructure. If you have a matter where technical documents are central to the dispute, and you need someone who can read them the way they were written, that is where this practice is most useful to you.

He has tried cases to verdict and argued in NC Business Court — the kind of matter where technical and legal literacy have to coexist in the same chair.

Samuel builds and operates litigation infrastructure directly. Engagements are structured for the specific demands of the matter.

• Co-counsel and local counsel. Coming in on commercial litigation matters at the invitation of lead counsel — as co-counsel where technical and litigation experience are needed in the same chair, or as local counsel for out-of-state attorneys practicing in NC courts.
• Discovery infrastructure. Document collection, processing, review, and production systems configured for the specific demands of a matter — ESI pipelines, semantic search, and advanced document analysis.
• Technical document review. Engineering specifications, source code, technical records, financial systems — reviewed by someone who reads them as a technical person, not a lawyer approximating one.
• Deposition preparation. Technical deposition preparation for counsel who need to examine or cross-examine an engineer, systems administrator, or technical expert.
• Case-specific tooling. Custom tooling built for the specific evidence and workflow of a matter.

Attorney inquiries are handled directly. If you have a matter in mind, call or send a brief description of the engagement through the contact page. There is no intake process — if it is a fit, you will know within one conversation.

Samuel is admitted in all NC State Courts and the U.S. District Courts for the Eastern, Middle, and Western Districts of North Carolina.
