About

Practice Area Breakdown:90% Family Law - separation, divorce, child custody, child support, spousal support, equitable distribution10% Estate Planning - wills, living wills, trusts, power of attorneysI am a native of Charlotte and graduated from Myers Park High School. After college and law school, I moved back to Charlotte and served as a police officer, and as an officer in the N.C. Army National Guard. I focus my law practice primarily on family law and estate planning. I live in Huntersville with my wife and our four children. We both have children from previous relationships, and one child together. I thoroughly understand the difficulties that come with divorce, dividing your assets and debts, and child custody, having to blend two child custody schedules myself. Understanding custody from both a legal and practical perspective, I try to help my clients develop arrangements that truly support their children’s best interests, and that work for the long term. I am passionate about helping parents develop schedules that minimize conflict, and support their children’s growth and development. My practice philosophy avoids or minimizes litigation to the extent we are able to come to a reasonable agreement. If we are not, or if we are dealing with the unreasonable, we have no choice but to fight for what is best for your children. Education:- Appalachian State University – Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice- Oklahoma City University School of Law – Juris Doctor- Boston University – Master of Criminal Justice- University of St. Andrews – Graduate certificate in Terrorism Studies Additional professional experience:- Police officer with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department (6.5 years)- United States Army veteran – Engineer officer with the North Carolina Army National Guard (8.5 years).

Charles Christopher Adkins is the best attorney I have ever worked with, hands down . I recently recieved a traffic citation. The citation I recieved could have caused my license to be revoked and a bunch of costly fines. Well, the Adkins Law Firm handled everything for me professionally and expediently.. Christopher Adkins appeared in court on my behalf and always remand in contact with me via email or phone, to let me know exactly what was going on. Any questions I had regarding my case were answered immediately. I am truly grateful to have worked with such a fantastic attorney!

I hired Mr. Adkins for a traffic ticket I got recently, which I felt was completely unjustified. He went to court and got it dismissed for me! I am so grateful- thank you for your great work!

Mr. Adkins gave us legal advice regarding our contract with a property management company and he also created our new lease agreement for our rental property. Mr. Adkins was quick to respond and gave sound legal advice. Our experience was great and we highly recommend his services.

A neighborhood friend referred us to Mr. Adkins and we are so happy we sought his legal expertise. I was most impressed with his knowledge around our matter and how hard he worked to help us through a difficult situation. He is a true professional that is personable and efficient and, most of all, was committed to helping us from start to finish. I would highly recommend Mr. Adkins.

I got a speeding ticket and it was not my first, or second one so naturally I was worried about possible restrictions and raising insurance rates. He was very attentive to my case, replying to my messages quickly even outside of business hours if needed. He listened to my concerns and offered a sound strategy in a timely manner that worked! He got the speed reduced and a PJC. The result was better than I hoped and I will most certainly recommend him to others though I hope to not need his services again!!
