About Hopper Cummings, PLLC

Local Attorneys. Specialized Credentials. A Different Kind of Practice.

At Hopper Cummings, PLLC, we handle family law and estate planning matters for clients across Chatham County and Orange County from our office in the historic Terry-Taylor House in downtown Pittsboro. Marie Hopper is a Chatham County native, a UNC School of Law graduate, and a former President of the 18th Judicial District Bar. Robert S. Cummings is also a North Carolina native, a Campbell University School of Law graduate and brings Board Certified Family Law credentials to every case.

We practice regularly in Chatham County District and Superior Courts and Orange County District and Superior Courts. Our clients choose us because we know these courts, these judges, and this community.

When resolution is possible outside of litigation, we pursue it. When advocacy in court is necessary, we are prepared to provide it. That judgment is the difference between an attorney who knows the law and one who knows how to use it.
