Over the past decade, Tin Fulton Walker & Owen has emerged as one of North Carolina s leading law firms, a multi-faceted group of attorneys capable of handling all manner of cases across the state. With offices in Charlotte, Chapel Hill, Raleigh, and Wilmington, the firm represents clients in criminal and civil matters in both state and federal courts. The lawyers at the firm, many of whom are recognized in peer-reviewed surveys as elite litigators in their respective fields, are highly respected and experienced advocates who have handled some of the most challenging and difficult cases.
The firm began in 2002 when Noell Tin hired Missy Owen to help him with a bustling criminal practice. A few years later, Matthew Pruden joined the firm as its client base continued to grow. The firm expanded into civil litigation in 2006 with the addition of former Chief Resident Superior Court Judge Shirley Fulton and, soon thereafter, civil practitioner Nancy Walker. In the fall of 2008, the firm relocated from uptown Charlotte to the historic Villalonga house in Dilworth.
