Thank you all for the support.

Attorney Ferguson is currently representing me. I will say if you want someone to pat you on the back and tell you what you want to hear she is not the attorney for you. She tells it like it is even when you don’t want to hear it. She fights for you and will work tirelessly to get you the best outcome possible. She is no holds barred. This is what you need from an attorney. I am more than confident that she will get the job done for me. I would recommend her to anyone who is in need of tough attorney. Her staff is at the ready to assist you with any question you may have and keeps you well informed. Overall best attorney hands down but leave your feelings at the door.
Mrs. Ferguson is amazing! She went above and beyond to help me in my court hearing. Thank you for your help!

Mrs. Ferguson has recently represented me in a custody hearing. She was nothing short of amazing!! She fought for me and my rights as a father as if she was defending herself in court. I can say with confidence if I went in there alone I would have been in serious trouble. She will not back down to any lawyer and that was exactly what I needed. I will be forever grateful to her for what she did for me. If you are looking for an attorney that will do everything she can for you I highly recommend Mrs. Ferguson.

Attorney Ferguson was great. I was worried at first because I am in a different state and we didnt have much time to prepare before court. But she did amazing in front of the judge. She is definitely blunt and will tell you like it is which is important. I'd definitely recommend her firm to anyone going through a custody battle.

I met with Ms. Ferguson on Twitter occasions. She was very helpful both times. This last time she was what I needed most, a listening ear, and I thank you. If I ever come across anyone who may need legal advice I will be sure to refer them to Patricia Ferguson.

Hard worker and great results. Thank you all for helping me thru my custody :) A++++ Business

Used the Ferguson Law Firm awhile back, seems my 1 star review has been deleted. Ms. Ferguson prepped for my trial the day of our court date in the cafeteria of the courthouse. Completely unprofessional and was beyond incompetent of the case. Her main focus was an estate case she was working on. This was very apparent by the lack of knowledge of very basic case details in my case. She will take your money if you want her to but she will not properly represent your best interests. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS LAW FIRM

Attorney Ferguson is brilliant. She has a solid knowledge of the law. She can quickly assess your legal needs and explain your options to you. She is also a genuine advocate for her clients. You will not feel like just another client at this firm. Attorney Ferguson and staff invest their time, talent, and heart into fighting for you. And most importantly, they deliver the results you need. Highly recommend!

Ms. Ferguson was my attorney in Fayetteville last year. I didn't realize how great she was until I had a second go through the Cumberland county system with my youngest son. It was this second go that made me realize I was blaming her for the jacked up system that is unique to Cumberland. With my new wisdom I want to give some good advice to people looking for lawyers in the area and an honest review. If you have been pro se in other areas you may think that you will be ok, but in Cumberland YOU WILL NOT. The court is supposed to dispence with a family law case within a year, by their own time standards, but they don't. It is very common for a simple case to not be heard for two or three years with long gaps between hearings and your date pushed off constantly. Know that the lawyers do have special access to the judge and they meet with him without you there in the back room after roll is called. Trying to send in any motion is almost impossible without being in town, because the lawyers deliver motions to the judge's office and if you have to mail something in or request something, it WILL take the Pro Se two weeks to hear back on it and most likely you will receive a letter stating they didn't know what you wanted them to do. There is little to no oversight of what is going on here and all the lawyers know each other so if you think you can do it Pro Se here, you can't. Get a lawyer.
Now, I have called just about every lawyer in this county and I have been through this system for three years sitting in on a lot of cases as they are held infront of everyone, unless hypothetically the judge is about to do something very out of line for your special case in which you will go last after everyone has left and the recording will be lost, hypothetically of course. So, with my experience here is what I can tell you about Ms. Ferguson:
Other lawyers do not like to be on the other side against her. They call her a bulldog. She will NOT sell you out. I cannot stress how important this is in a town like this. Ms. Ferguson is one of the rare Christians who mean everything they say and really believe in justice and her clients. If you are in the wrong and you go to her, you better tell her the truth, because she will find it out. If you are in the right, then know it is going to be a long process, but if you stick it out she will stick it out with you. She is very sharp and knows the law extremely well. She was about the only lawyer I have consulted with in the town who gave me law advice rather than asking who my judge was and switching our plan to accomodate personalities. Other lawyers in town have been referred to as "easy to work with" and what that meant is they were going to split the difference in my case and come up with a settlement that accomodated the other party very well, but didn't take into account my child at all. The system in Fayetteville does not work the way it should. The orders that came from that town have spun the heads of the courts in other states, "why did they take jurisdiction and then deny it a year later?" "You can't have 50/50 when the other parent lives states away?" "How can they keep jurisdiction when no one has lived in that state for over a year?" but these are exactly the orders that have come out of this court. But with Ms. Ferguson, I never once felt like myself or my son had been betrayed, nothing was agreed to on my behalf without my knowledge and consent, and she does the right thing.

This is in response to the post from Halfthewaysir. I am the spouse that he is referring to in his appalling post. First off, Attorney Ferguson was MY attorney and in MY opinion she (and her office) did the best she could with the circumstances that she was presented with. I am not going to go into the details of my case or my employment with Attorney Ferguson, as those are private. I will say that she did her research and fought for me the whole time. The opposing side to my case made this whole process extremely difficult and trying for all involved. As you can see from his post, he continues to do so. I am horrified that he would come onto this site and critique MY attorney, it shows just how narcissistic and petty he actually is. If you are looking for someone who will work tirelessly for you, tell you things that you need to hear and fight for your best interests then please give her office a call.

This attorney is fantastic, for your spouse if you are divorcing! She represented my ex and I witnessed her argue with the judge, tell the judge she was wrong and talk down to her client making her cry. She also hired my ex to work for her, while the case was going on only to fire her a few months later. Ferguson was quite the spectacle. She convinced my ex she was getting screwed and in the end my ex ended up with nothing more than what was agreed upon in the separation agreement, but did have an expensive unnecessary attorney fee.

Ferguson Law Firm helped me through the most challenging time in my life. They worked incredibly hard. The opposition had made it seem like it was their mission to be as difficult as possible, this seemed to only make Ferguson Law Firm fight even harder. They are amazing and will do everything they can to help you. The ladies in the office are beyond nice and the attorney is amazing. They would contact me with any changes immediately and kept me completely informed throughout the entire process. In the court room the attorney seemed to be flawless. I do not see why anyone would ever choose a different family law firm. They are worth way more than their price. Choosing them will be the best choice you can make.

Mrs. Ferguson reputation proceeds her as one of the best lawyers around. She worked hard and very diligently on my case, which I know she did not charge for for all the hours she put in. Additionally her as well as her office staff are well versed in taking care of deployed soldiers needs as well as navigating the legal system to work around your schedule something that comes with years of experience. She's honest and a fighter--you won't be disappointed

Mrs. Ferguson has gone above and beyond on my case, which has been a particularly rough one. She is terrifying in the courtroom...definitely happy she was on my side and not against me. Her desk person Alyssa is very friendly and helpful and her paralegals are amazing...I've had a wonderful experience with them all. If I ever need legal assistance in the future she will be my first call.

Facing more legal battles after a very difficult divorce process, I was able to contract Attorney Ferguson to help me with my situation. By far, the best decision I had made personally and professionally. Attorney Ferguson is a carrying, dedicated, capable, and above all display a true concern for her clients problems. She have consistently do everything within her power to ensure justice and fairness is serve, and have earned my loyalty and business time after time. A must hire for any legal problem facing your family. Attorney Ferguson will make you feel like part of her family, and her competent staff, paralegal, and personnel is amazing!!!

Attorney Fergusion is a bulldog. I love this lady when I came to speak with her abt my cases she was all for it. She didn't tell me what I wanted to hear she told me what was best for my child and the situation that I was in. Attorney Fergusion and her staff Alyssa and Corrin took out time for me when they where busy to listen to all my concerns when I was down and just walked in to talk about my situation, over the phone when I called ext. They was always there. Attorney Ferguson is the best of all Firms in Fayetteville. When I retain Attorney Ferguson she stayed right by my side all the way. This lady is good at what she do. Thanks Attorney Ferguson and staff for working in me in my child favor. Gifted hands from God is what she has.

For the most part Patricia Ferguson was a great attorney, and her support staff was helpful. That is until I got stationed in Korea for a year and she dropped me for not communicating.
Before I left I informed her staff that my wife would be checking in monthly and if they needed to communicate anything, they need to tell her. Patricia and her staff failed to do that, even when my wife asked every month if they needed anything. They always told her no... and didn't even tell her they were trying to contact me.

I am a veteran of the US Army. I was injured when I was shot multiple times and left for dead. My daughter was taken to NC for my mother to watch while I recovered. She attempted to gain custody of her. When going through a tough time, I needed a lawyer who was aggressive, blunt, upfront, and truthful. I didn't realize that I was getting a warrior. I live in Texas and was confused about everything dealing with NC law. The other party had a lawyer but every time he said something to me, not only did it sound wrong but there was a little smirk on his face. Three lawyers asked to take my case and talked horribly about the other attorney. As I sat in the courtroom I saw attorney Ferguson in action and was immediately amazed. She seemed to be well versed in law as well as the applicability of it. I decided to retain her services. During the consult, she paid close attention to me. Since retaining her, I have failed to be amazed. She was in court on time and even had to wait on the judge to get there. She fought my case by the law using facts coupled with aggressiveness. The judge gave me custody of my daughter that day. The paralegals that have helped me are second to none. When I call, there is always someone there. Whether it's the quick reaction of Alyssa, the reassurance of Corin (I think that's how you spell it), or the attention to detail of the other paralegal (whose name I can't remember) I'm always in good hands. And trust me when I say that's hard on anyone because I am constantly messing something up or doing something wrong, but, Attorney Ferguson and her staff take care of me by constantly showing professionalism and unmatched customer service. This law firm wins. I can't tell anyone what to do and obviously people have to "shop" around. But I'm my honest opinion, it would be in anyone's best interest to stop here and get a consult. You probably already. been going through the ringer and you don't need someone that will sugar coat it for you just to obtain your business. If you're like me, you want a battle tested warrior that studies the rules of engagement (law), plans her strategy, and executes it with a high rate of success.

I can't say enough for Attorney Ferguson. She took my case at the last minute, still gave me and my case plenty of attention and care, and ensured that I was satisfied with my outcome. I was afraid before starting my ordeal, however with her in my corner I know I was being taken care of. She is straightforward, witty, and incredibly dedicated. From start to finish she made sure I understood what was happening and my options. I am so appreciative!

Look no further, Ferguson Law Firm is the best hands down. They represented me on my Divorce, child custody and equitable distribution. Attorney Ferguson was very attentive and aggressive. She had my best interest at all times and took care of me and my family. Her staff is amazing from the moment you set foot in that office it feels right, just like walking into my home. They are on top of things and very caring as well. My daughters would spend countless hours while I went to court and they have nothing but great things to say about the staff. If you want great results an aggressive Law Firm with your best interest out front, this is the one.

A FIRM THAT IS COMMITTED The Ferguson Firm and its staff has been a pillar of strength. I got involved in a very bizarre annulment case thanks to a narcissistic bigamist that has created a challenge for all. It’s been a rough road and the opposing team has been ruthless with endless lies and allegations, but the firm held their legal ground with dignity. The case is not over and milestones have been set as we chart new waters. But finally there is a light at the end of the tunnel. If you’re in need of a law firm that strives for a successful win and can weather the storm untouched; this is the one. Jeff – Fayetteville

Ms Ferguson is a stellar attorney. I hired her for a child custody case for my children. I had already been divorced and had shared custody with my ex. The one week on, one week off was literally damaging to my children. It was an extremely hard case and took a while due to the circumstances but I m very proud to say that we won. She stood by me the entire time and was a great support. She s an attorney that will fight to the very end because she has a strong belief in what she does. Her professionalism in the courtroom was stellar. I actually had people in court that would ask me for her buisness card just because of how she handled herself. She was honest with me. She told me the truth about what she thought about my case, not what I wanted to hear and she always did what was in the best interest for me and my family. It was a really long fight for our custody but it had a very happy story in the end. She helped me stand up to my ex after years of abuse. She has a firm belief in standing up for what is right and takes a personal interest in her cases. She ll stand up for you when you need it and give you the sound logical advice you re looking for. I ve had the opportunity many times to observe other attorney s while waiting on my case. I ve seen most attorney s in this area a few times and observe how they handle their cases. She was well mannered with the judge and other attorneys, polite (You ll see if you ever go, how ill mannered some other attorneys can be. Extremely rude. Proud to say, she wasn t), whitty, excellent at trials with questioning, and inviolable. I d recommend her to anyone. I know what it s like when you re looking for a lawyer and have no clue who to choose. I took my chances with not knowing any lawyer in this area and chose her and I d go back and choose her again if I ever needed to.
