Since 1983, the attorneys at Howard Stallings have represented a wide range of clients in complex eminent domain and land condemnation matters—real estate developers, Fortune 500 companies, shopping center owners, regional banks, homeowners’ associations, and private investors. Today, we apply that experience to help individual property owners and business owners navigate the condemnation process. Joan Davis and Kenneth Haywood, principals at the firm, lead our eminent domain practice. For decades, Joan has focused on representing institutional and commercial clients in condemnation cases involving significant property interests. Kenneth has represented landowners and businesses across North Carolina whose property is being taken by state agencies, utility companies, or local governments. He has been recognized for securing one of the highest jury verdicts in a North Carolina condemnation case.

The firm’s attorneys also counsel buyers, sellers, investors, developers, and lenders regarding commercial real estate transactions. Our knowledgeable attorneys work to structure mutually beneficial deals, with terms that empower our clients to achieve success. Our commercial real estate practice assists clients with sales, purchases, leases, development, land use, and real estate financing. Brooke Dalrymple and Katie Coyle lead our commercial real estate practice, guiding clients through a diverse range of real estate transactions.
