Administrative Law

Unlike other forms of law, such as civil matters or criminal trials, administrative law varies widely depending on the entity or agency involved in the matter. Administrative law cases typically involve distinct rules and procedures established by the government agency or regulatory body, and they are often complex and challenging to interpret. The dedicated administrative law attorneys at Campbell Durrant, P.C., recognize that these matters can be confusing and even intimidating to navigate, which is why we’re committed to working closely with you to ensure that you understand your options so you can make informed decisions with greater certainty and confidence. We realize that administrative actions carry significant consequences for all parties involved in the dispute, and we’re committed to upholding your rights at every turn while advocating for your best interests and the favorable resolution you deserve.

Administrative law is closely related to other practice areas, such as labor and employment law as well as municipal law.
