About

As an attorney, my goal is to use my education and experience to provide each of my clients with excellent legal representation and to help resolve personal and business issues that happen in life.  Many times, the need for an attorney is due to a stressful or negative experience.  Having my own firm allows me to dedicate my time to your individual needs and protecting your rights.I practice and have experience in several areas of law including: traffic, criminal, family, divorce, custody, personal injury, disability, as well as wills, trusts and estate planning.  Whether you are going through a divorce, have been injured on the job or need some assistance with planning for your future, we are here to help.I grew up in Kings Mountain, NC where I participated in many sports and activities.  I received a scholarship from Appalachian State University to become a high school history teacher.  I graduated from Appalachian State University in 2002 and worked as a high school teacher at Hunter Huss High School in Gastonia, North Carolina.   My education and experience as a teacher allows me best serve my clients in trials and negotiations.  Many times judges and juries depend on the attorney to teach the law and present complex factual scenarios in an understandable manner.  I rely on my training and experience as a former teacher to present each case in a way that helps to educate the judge or jury.After teaching in Gastonia, North Carolina, I decided to attend law school.  I graduated from the University Of South Carolina School Of Law in the spring of 2008.  My family and I relocated to my wife’s hometown of Statesville, North Carolina, where I enjoy many aspects of community involvement.  It is important to me to give back to the community I live in; therefore, I volunteer on many different boards including: United Way of Iredell County Board of Directors and Executive Committee, YMCA of Statesville – Local Board of Directors, Mitchell Community College Endowment Board, and the Civil Service Board.I am a member of the Greater Statesville Rotary Club where I am a Paul Harris Member.   I attend church at First Presbyterian Church of Statesville and enjoy spending time with my children and family.  I am an avid Appalachian State University football fan and spend many Saturday afternoons in Boone, NC watching the team play.

Mr.Goforth is a very good attorney. He actually handled my case so well that even I was surprised. I have to say that if anyone is searching for an attorney that really cares about his clients then Mr.Goforth is the attorney that you should speak with. He definitely knows his way around a court room. I would give him five stars.

Mr. Goforth was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient in discussing options for my case. The case unfolded exactly as he predicted. He handled everything; I cannot imagine a better attorney/client experience. I recommend Mr. Goforth without reservation as the attorney you should contact for traffic issues in NC.

I hired Sloan Goforth one year ago. I found him to be professional, courteous, knowledgeable and understanding. He handled my case efficiently, and I was very pleased with the outcome. I have since returned to Mr. Goforth for another civil matter, which he handled in like fashion. I could not be happier with this attorney, and should the unhappy necessity arise wherein I need representation again, I know exactly whom to call.

Atty. Goforth has been very informative and responsive throughout my case. I would highly recommend his services to anyone in need of legal assistance. He has been a compassionate supporter when I would have otherwise felt alone in such a difficult situation.
