G. Thompson Miller & David Inabinett:
"My husband went out on State disability in 2000. We were hopeful that he would be able to return to teaching, but after two years, we realized that was going to be impossible. After being turned down twice by Social Security, we decided it was time for legal help. We had two requirements: 1. personal service and 2. a local attorney. We went to Brinkley Walser and were referred to Thompson Miller. For the next two years, he fought for us. We had an initial visit with him at the office, then every month he would contact us. He wanted to know how my husband was doing and if there were any medical changes. The Social Security office in Charlotte moved during our wait, which made the wait even longer. When our appointment day arrived, Mr. Miller drove us to Charlotte. It amazed me as we sat in the waiting room to see attorneys arrive who had never met their clients face to face. One was taking notes on the side of a newspaper. Mr. Miller had all of the files he needed, with certain places marked for easy access. Our session with the judge was successful and my husband was awarded Social Security. It was only later that I saw in the paper that Mr. Miller's son had been sworn in as a lawyer. The remarkable thing is that his son is visually impaired. The entire time Mr. Miller fought for us, he was facing the crisis of his son losing his eye sight---and it never interfered with our case. It is no wonder that we also use this firm for our estate planning/last will and testament. David Inabinett was also the attorney my mother-in-law used. He came to her when her physical condition did not allow her to travel. Our recent work with him on wills, power of attorney, etc went so smoothly and my husband and I can rest easier knowing our children will not be faced with major problems. This local firm is very client oriented. We will return to them if there are future needs."

Robert B. Smith, Jr. ("R.B."):
“Trust, integrity and loyalty are essential to any relationship I have, especially in business. That is why I've had RB advising me on legal matters for over 40 years. I know he'll always tell me what I need to hear and not just what I want to hear.” ~ Bob Timberlake
G. Thompson Miller:
“Finding the right lawyer when you are hurt is hard. By getting Thompson Miller to represent me I got the right solutions to my workers’ comp and social security claim but more important I got a lawyer who understands what I was going through. I found out quickly that not everyone understands what it means to be disabled, how your life gets turned upside down. Thompson was there for me and my family when it counted.” ~ Michael D. Norris
Ryan V. McNeill:
“Ryan serves as the attorney for the Davidson County Airport Authority and I serve as its chairman. I have the privilege of working with Ryan on a regular basis and am constantly impressed with his quick grasp of issues and his “common sense” approach to problem solving. Plus, he is mature beyond his years” ~ Michael S. Turlington, Chairman, Davidson County Airport Authority
Bradley S. Hunt:
“I have worked with Bradley for more than 5 years. His prompt action in judgments has provided us a secure lien in which to execute on and his experience in the claim and delivery process has allowed us the ability to gain possession sooner and liquidate quickly, giving us an advantage with depreciating collateral. Bradley has become a valued asset in my ongoing relationship with Brinkley Walser, PLLC.” ~ April Cassidy, NewBridge Bank
David E. Inabinett:
“Brinkley Walser has been a part of our school system as legal counsel since the 1960s. There has been a rich line of extraordinary attorneys from the days of Walt Brinkley to the men who now sit at the helm of the firm representing the Davidson County Schools Board of Education. David Inabinett and his team work with us hand in hand on a daily basis to provide for the welfare of our children. We have absolute confidence in his ability and I would recommend Brinkely Walser to any school system in North Carolina.” ~ Fred Mock, Superintendent, Davidson County Schools
Charles M. McGirt:
“I have had the opportunity to work with Charles H. McGirt and the Brinkley Walser firm for many years and have the highest respect for Charles and the firm. Their knowledge and experience, combined with the firm’s capabilities in providing professional services have been an invaluable resource.
In providing their wise counsel through the years, Charles and the firm have always exhibited the highest level of professionalism.” ~ Robert F. Lowe, Former Chairman of the Board NewBridge Bancorp
Steve D. Barnhill:
“Legal representation is a very crucial part of business. It does not matter if the economy is week or raging like a bull, there are simply too many situations that require a person to have a good attorney. Steve Barnhill is not just a good attorney, he is a great attorney.
He takes the time to explain legal situations to his clients in laymen’s terms so that there is mutual understanding of what is actually happening. Steve becomes overly involved in the cases that he handles, learning each and every aspect he possibly can so as he can best represent his client.
The legal knowledge that he possesses is far and above that of his colleagues. Due to his experiences from being in the military, working in the District Attorney’s office and his experience working in the public arena; his skills are unparallel in and out of the court room. I would put Steve Barnhill up against any attorney. My experiences with Steve have always been a positive influence on my business. I cannot imagine not having his shoulder to lean on for all of the legal needs that my office and staff have needed over the years” ~ Tedman Myers, Certified Public Accountant
