Elizabeth Radnothy

Dedicated Family Law & Estate Planning Attorney

With a passion for helping families through life's most challenging transitions, I bring nearly a decade of diverse legal experience to serve my clients with compassion, skill, and dedication. As the daughter of a U.S. Army Soldier and the eldest of four siblings, I grew up moving every three years across the United States and abroad, giving me a unique perspective on family dynamics and the challenges of transitions.

Education

I earned my Juris Doctor from Campbell University School of Law in 2017, where I honed my advocacy skills through Moot Court, the Kilpatrick Mock Trial Competition, and as a Negotiation Competitor. My foundation in creative thinking began with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from the University of North Carolina Wilmington.

Professional Experience

After being licensed to practice law in North Carolina in 2017, I began my career at King Law Offices, PLLC, where I quickly advanced to Junior Partner. There, I developed a diverse practice handling estate planning, family law, civil matters, and criminal defense throughout western North Carolina.

In April 2021, I joined Bull & Reinhardt, PLLC, focusing my practice on family law, estate planning, and estate administration, helping clients navigate complex personal and financial transitions with clarity and compassion.

From June 2023 to March 2025, I served at the Cumberland County District Attorney's Office, prosecuting crimes involving domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking. This experience deepened my understanding of the profound impact these issues have on families and communities, while strengthening my courtroom advocacy skills.

I am thrilled to have returned to Bull & Reinhardt in March 2025, where I continue to help clients with family law matters, estate planning, estate administration, traffic matters, misdemeanor charges, and domestic assault cases.

Why Choose Me As Your Attorney

My background in creative writing, coupled with extensive courtroom experience in both family law and criminal prosecution, allows me to approach each case with a unique blend of compassion, creativity, and strategic advocacy.
