About Us

Excellent legal advise. Takes his time with you to get all the facts. Trustworthy, Professional, highly recommend this law firm.

I found Rob to be extremely passionate about helping others. He is an excellent listener and genuine in his responses. He was upfront about how he could and could not help me. I certainly would recommend anyother looking for starting their own business or a side hassel to get in touch with him. The time spent is well worth it!!!

I had the privilege of working with Rob after major life and career events left me spinning and in "survival mode.” Rob helped visualize my desired future and how to make the space to start moving into that direction. He helped me identify skills, resources and networks at my disposal, and held me accountable in the process of taking control of my present, and to create the space to become a better version of me. A career coach is not a therapist and not an instructor. He is much more no-nonsense, result-oriented, time-bound, and unafraid to push or help directly. Amongst the three options we explored: career move, franchising and from-scratch entrepreneurship we chose the later. The most valuable experience for me in working with Rob is realizing that he was personally invested in betting on me, and making my success, our success. Life sometimes brings you what you need when you need it. I am truly grateful it brought me to Rob.

Rob is absolutely fantastic to work with. Definitely takes the time to listen and understand your perspective, while pushing you outside of a self imposed comfort zone. Highly recommended!

Rob Maitland is a dynamic mentor whose insightful genuine support empowers me to look forward to turning my innovative ideas into thriving ventures. Thanks Rob, I would definitely utilize your expertise again!

Even though he could not help me directly (I needed services he does not provide), Rob still kept the call and listened to me then referred me to his colleagues who offer the services I need. I'm thankful for you taking the time to share your wisdom, I definitely recommend him and I hope we can work together sometime in the future!

I've used them for a several real estate closings. Very flexible and they always seem to make it happen in a crunch!

Strong knowledgeable firm…trust worthy. Rob is great!

Robert Maitland is a Great Attorney! I Highly Recommend - 5 Stars!!!

I have used this firm for many real estate transactions. They respond quickly to questions, and have helped me a lot over the years. I plan to continue using this firm for any and all future real estate transactions and legal work. Highly recommend!

Over the years, I've had an excellent experiences working with this firm. Mr. Maitland is very personable, and knowledgeable of many aspects of law. I have worked with him on matters of real estate, and have always been pleased with the outcome of our work together.

They answered all my questions on the telephone.

We reached out to attorney, Robert Maitland, for the very first time, regarding a very stressful, time-sensitive, provider related conflict on a major home renovation. A huge 40-piece cabinet order was to be delivered the following day but the day before the already weeks late delivery was to happen, we received unacceptable demands for payment by the supplier who threatened refusal to deliver the following day unless their unreasonable demands were met.The cabinets had already been delayed for weeks and needless to say we were frustrated and anxious about the job slow down. Even though the firm’s appointment booking system only provided one single 30-minute consultation, Mr. Maitland not only took his time, prior to our consult, to review our contract and the supporting information that I had forwarded earlier that morning. He never made us feel rushed during the consult in which he recommended a solid solution. More, he agreed to reach out to the provider, drafted a letter of agreement, and calmed the situation down that very afternoon so the delivery could proceed the next day. He accomplished all of the above on a two hour window! More importantly, he negotiated a solution that avoided what might otherwise have been a nightmarish and costly legal battle and anxiety-ridden additional project delay. Frankly, I’ve never received such competent, thoughtful and effective legal service in such a stressful, time-condensed situation, including during my 20+ years as CEO and owner of a major real estate sales and marketing company. If I could have given Mr.Maitland a higher rating then 5-stars I would have done so. If you are looking for a client-best-interest solution, quality legal advice and service from a brilliant and calming communicator you will not find a better contract lawyer than Mr. Maitland!

I emailed Atty Maitland and within 2 hours he gave me a callback regarding my case. He worked with me quickly and provided the draft of what I was asking for. He heard my case and provided his professional opinion and advise. He presented his draft in a timely manner. I am very much satisfied with the legal service Atty Maitland has provided me. I highly recommend him if you need some legal assistance. 5 stars all around. Thank you Atty Maitland.

A very informative and productive first meeting that exceeded my expectations. Mr. Maitland and the office staff were helpful and professional.

Amazing place!!!

A strong recommendation for Rob Maitland. Knows the law, gives thoughtful and practical advice. Responsive and great to work with!

Maitland & English Law firm have been very helpful from the early stages of building our surgery center in Chapel Hill more than a decade ago. The team is professional and timely. Thank-you for your service to the community.

Great personal attention.

I've been using the Maitland and English law form for over 15 years now and they are always on top of everything and handled all my transactions and concerns in a very timely manner. I highly reccommend this firm.

I am a professor of mathematics and I have been a resident of Chapel Hill for the last 40 years. I am a widow and I have two adult children. Me and my wife moved to the United States at the age of 32 when I decided to attend graduate school at NYU; we eventually settled in Chapel Hill where we started our family. The experience of living in this country has always been beautiful, but because I grew up in another country my own personal wisdom and experience had always caused me to be apprehensive regarding the services that involve life’s most personal matters. This was the case until I met Robert Maitland, the managing partner of the Maitland Law Firm. In addition to being a kind and genuine individual, Rob is the best at handling the personal matters that affect us in our daily lives. Whether it be purchasing a house, writing a will or trust, handling a speeding ticket, or helping my daughter with her small business, Rob has always stood by me and my family as he has guided us through life’s complexities. In some sense, Rob has been the fifth member of our family as he has been standing by us for the last 20 years. I highly recommend the services of Robert Maitland to anyone. As my mother stated, “it’s always good to have a lawyer in the family.” We are fortunate to have a lawyer in our family and that individual is Robert Maitland. Lastly, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Rob’s partners Michele English and Ryan Mumper. Ryan and Michele are not only highly capable lawyers, but also share the same family values of personal service that Rob has excelled at as the Tar Heel Attorney.

Over the past few years Rob Maitland has provided exceptional service in a timely and considerate manner. The best law firm I’ve had. I highly recommend the Maitland & English law firm.

Rob has always been there to guide my Mom and to guide me legally, since we moved to NC, purchased our home and continues to be there for me, after the recent passing of my beloved Mom, my best friend, my world.
