Greensboro Law Center

Focus and practice areas

Greensboro Law Center opened in 2006 and works out of North Carolina. The firm splits its attention between two broad areas: injury claims for individuals and litigation for businesses. On the personal injury side, it handles car wrecks and wrongful death cases. On the business side, it takes on disputes and courtroom litigation.

The firm also lists product liability work, which covers dangerous drugs, defective medical devices, and defective products. It represents clients in mass tort cases as well. Those include claims tied to mesothelioma and asbestos, talcum powder, Roundup, and Paraquat. Real estate and professional malpractice round out the stated practice areas.

Those mass tort names matter because they point to nationally coordinated litigation rather than one-off local cases. Roundup, Paraquat, and talcum powder claims tend to move through federal courts in large groups. A firm that lists them is telling you it works inside that system. In my opinion, that spread says something about how the firm reads its own strengths. Injury and mass tort work sits next to business litigation, and both call for time in front of a judge.

How the team is built

Four attorneys are named on the firm's site, and each is described as a trial attorney. Their backgrounds do not overlap much, which gives the group a fairly wide base to draw from.

Drew Brown

Drew Brown founded the firm in 2006 and still runs it. The site says he has appeared for clients in contested hearings in more than 50 courthouses across the Carolinas. He has taken both personal injury and business disputes to trial. That courthouse count points to a lawyer who spends real time in hearings rather than settling from a desk.

James R. Faucher

James R. Faucher handles complex litigation that crosses state lines. His work includes business disputes, personal injury, and cases involving dangerous drugs and defective products within Multi-District Litigation. He often serves as local counsel for out-of-state attorneys. He is licensed in all trial and appellate courts in North Carolina, including the NC Business Court and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.

Kevin Rust

Kevin Rust is a litigator who once served as in-house counsel. He started his career as a clerk for the Honorable Robert C. Hunter at the North Carolina Court of Appeals. His practice runs across personal injury, business litigation, medical malpractice, and products liability. The clerkship and the in-house background give him a view of disputes from more than one seat.

Stephen Inman

Stephen Inman brings more than 25 years of combined experience in government and private practice. He spent over eight years in civil litigation at two of the large firms in North Carolina. He then served seventeen years as an Assistant United States Attorney, finishing as Criminal Chief. He has tried multiple cases to verdict in federal court and has argued before the Fourth and Eleventh Circuits.

Where the firm can practice

The attorneys state that they are licensed in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Missouri. They also handle matters in federal courts nationwide, which fits the mass tort and dangerous drug cases that often move through Multi-District Litigation. The firm keeps a second office in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, alongside its Greensboro base.

As a reviewer, I read that reach as a practical match for the work. Mass tort and MDL cases rarely stay inside one state. Holding licenses in three states, plus federal court access, lets the firm follow those cases where they go. The South Carolina office also puts the firm closer to clients along that stretch of coast.

What the record points to

Several details from the site line up around one idea: this is a firm built for the courtroom. Every attorney carries the trial attorney label. Brown's courthouse figure, Faucher's appellate admissions, and Inman's federal verdicts all speak to time spent trying cases.

The backgrounds also cover a lot of ground. There is a founder with roughly two decades of local trial work. There is a lawyer focused on multi-state and MDL litigation. There is a former clerk who later sat as in-house counsel. There is a former federal prosecutor who once led a criminal division. That mix means a client's matter can be handed to someone whose history fits it.

It is worth being clear about what the site does not state. It does not publish case results, settlement figures, or client counts, so a reader cannot judge outcomes from the pages alone. What the firm does document is the shape of its team and the range of courts it can enter. Read on those terms, the picture is consistent.

What a prospective client can expect

The firm offers free initial consultations for personal injury cases. That gives someone with an injury claim a way to ask questions before making any commitment. For business and litigation clients, the site frames the work around trial readiness rather than quick resolution.

What stands out to me is the balance the firm keeps. It serves individuals hurt in wrecks or by defective products, and it serves businesses in disputes, without leaning fully into either. For a mid-sized North Carolina firm, that range is worth noting, and the trial focus behind it is stated plainly across the site. A client weighing this firm can start from those facts and then ask the consultation to fill in the rest.
