Service Areas

A Wake County Law Firm Rooted in the Community

Guirguis Law's office sits on Fayetteville Street in the heart of downtown Raleigh, just blocks from the Wake County Courthouse and the Wake County Justice Center, where much of the county's criminal, family, and civil litigation is heard. That proximity matters when deadlines are tight and court appearances are on the line.

Wake County has grown fast, stretching from the research campuses near NC State and RTP to the neighborhoods along US-1 and I-540. Our attorney team works with the pace of that growth, representing immigrants, families, workers, and business owners no matter which corner of the county they call home.

As an immigration law firm serving clients nationwide alongside our criminal defense, family law, and civil practice, we bring the same client-first, faith-guided approach to every Wake County matter we take on.
