Civil Litigation

Wilmington, North Carolina Civil Litigation Lawyer

Federal Courthouse The legal system in America defines our rights as citizens; it also protects us when those rights are violated by others. When that happens, we can sue another person to seek a court order enforcing our rights or an award compensating us for our losses and injuries.

Civil lawsuits are not simple matters. Instead, they are highly complicated and are controlled by confusing procedural and evidentiary rules, the interpretation of which fill many volumes in many law libraries. An uninformed mistake can cost you your case. Truly, "ignorance of the law is no excuse" applies in the courtroom.

Attorney James Eldridge is very comfortable with these rules of civil litigation in all of the state and federal courts in North Carolina. He has also handled many appeals on both the state and federal level. His knowledge, skills and experience with a wide variety of civil disputes has resulted in a high success rate for his clients.

These matters encompass many subjects, including but not limited to:

  • Automobile accidents resulting in personal injury
  • Airplane accidents resulting in personal injury
  • Truck accidents resulting in personal injury
  • Railroad accidents resulting in personal injury
  • Premises liability (slip and fall)
  • Contract disputes
  • Property line disputes
  • Appearances before planning boards, boards of adjustment and city councils
  • Annexations
  • Zoning matters
  • Variances
  • Appeals of local government decisions
  • Constitutional issues
  • Restraining orders and injunctions
  • Debt collections
  • Libel and slander
  • Restrictive covenants
  • Insurance actions
  • Assault or battery resulting in personal injury


James Eldridge will effectively prosecute your claims and defend your rights in these and other civil matters. In addition to his knowledge, skills and experience as a trial attorney, Attorney Eldridge communicates directly with you and not through an assistant and keeps you informed so that you can make informed decisions about your case. Mr. Eldridge is detail oriented, which is an asset in any legal matter but is especially so in civil litigation.
