The law firm of Mike Schlosser originated in 1983 after Michael (Mike) A. Schlosser had served as the elected District Attorney of Guilford County and entered the private practice of law. During his term as District Attorney, and prior to that time as an Assistant District Attorney, Mr. Schlosser represented the State in all types of traffic and criminal cases. One of the more noteworthy cases for which he was the DA was the highly publicized Klan, Communist Workers Party trial in 1980, following a shootout when 6 people were killed in Greensboro.

The firm grew to 5 attorneys and a support staff of 8 members before 2002, mostly paralegals in specialty areas of the law. In 2002 it was decided that the firm could best serve its clients by limiting its practice to representing only those with traffic and criminal charges and injury cases.

Case Dismissed

My deepest thanks to the team at Schlosser and Pritchett.
What might have seemed a hopeless case to some was not to this team.
My traffic violation was dismissed when even I didn't think it had a chance.
Well done folks and rest assured I am advocate of your firm.
Thanks, Jim

Outstanding Lawyer

I made the terrible mistake of driving drunk and got a DWI. And due to my high BAC I was facing some very serious penalties. After much "lawyer shopping" I decided to go with Mr. Pritchett. He made it very clear we faced an uphill battle and in all likelihood i would be convicted. Nevertheless, we came up with a plan and when favorable situations presented themselves Mr. Pritchett knew exactly how to use them to our advantage. Because of his thorough knowledge of how the system works he was able to get my DWI charge dismissed on June 8, 2018. I have learned my lesson and will NEVER drink and drive again but for those that make the mistake I highly recommend Mr. Pritchett. Thank you so much to everyone at Sclosser and Pritchett!

Job well done

I had a traffic case and they were willing to help me. I was told they would get the ticket moved down to a lesser charge. Thet actually had the whole case dismissed. I never had to go to court they went for me and kept me informed. That way I did not have to miss work. I say a job well done, and they went over and aboard. The first time I ever neeed a laywer and glad I made the right choice.

I know there so many attorneys that represent people in courts in countless places including Greensboro, NC, US. However, each attorney or firm is differentiated from other lawyers by his or her expertise, knowledge, experience, and philosophical professionalism. I can't find words that would describe my satisfaction with Schlosser & Pritchett Firm when they helped me shake off the trouble I most got into. Please do not hesitate to contact this firm if you really want an assistance with your case.

The Best Decision

I got involved with some questionable people making bad choices. Because of those bad decisions I was making, I got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. I know much better then what I was doing. I deserved a second chance to straighten out my life, get back on the right track & do the right thing. I NEEDED SERIOUS HELP. I made the right decision and retained SCHLOSSER & PRATCHETT. They were able to straighten out what was happening to me. I avoided what was surely happening to me. I got through it ok & back on the right track for a much better future. The whole team at SCHLOEMER & PRITCHETT saw through everything and new I was slightly derailed from the bigger & better things I was destined for. If you are in a situation with a possibility of a bad outcome and the law is involved you need to start making good decisions. The best you can make. Contact SCHLOSSER & PRITCHETT & let them work out the best possible out come for you. -

What Happens at a North Carolina Bail Hearing After a Felony Arrest

A felony arrest in North Carolina sets off a legal process that moves quickly.

Schlosser & Pritchett is a Greensboro criminal defense firm whose founding attorneys are both former district attorneys, giving them direct knowledge of how prosecutors approach bail arguments in Guilford County courts. In many cases, having counsel involved from the first appearance can influence not only the bond amount, but also whether release conditions are realistically manageable for you [...]

How a Criminal Conviction Affects Professional Licensing in North Carolina

Most North Carolina professionals facing a criminal charge assume their license is already at risk. Under a 2013 state law reform, that assumption is often wrong. North Carolina prohibits licensing boards from automatically disqualifying applicants based on a criminal record, and a defense strategy built around that law can protect a career from the start. At Schlosser & Pritchett, our Greensboro criminal defense attorney handles both the criminal charge and its licensing consequences simultaneously.

At Schlosser & Pritchett, our Greensboro criminal defense team has defended clients in traffic and criminal cases throughout Guilford County for more than 25 years.
