History and Overview

History of Wilson, Reives & Doran

Wilson Law Firm formed in 1977, when William Wilson moved to Sanford, NC to start a law practice. Two decades later, Robert Reives joined Mr. Wilson to form Wilson & Reives Law Firm.  Then in 2022,  Wilson, Reives & Doran was established when Nathalie Doran became a partner.

Mr. Wilson decided to move from Apex to Sanford to expand his ability to serve clients. When he was beginning his career as an attorney in Apex, he was either related to or knew most of the people in the town. Sanford, NC provided the opportunity to practice law for more people. Since establishing the law firm, Mr. Wilson has watched the area grow in size, economy, and opportunity.

Wilson, Reives & Doran itself has grown over the past 30 years. The firm now serves Sanford, Apex, and the surrounding Moore, Chatham, Harnett, and Lee counties. The attorneys and staff at the Sanford office work with the people in those communities every day on a variety of legal cases and claims.
