About Wright Criminal Defense

I am an experienced, aggressive, and effective criminal defense lawyer in Wilmington, NC, devoted to defending those accused of crimes in all State and Federal courts. Since I began my career, I have successfully represented hundreds of individuals in serious felony and misdemeanor matters including first degree murder, drug trafficking and possession, sex crimes, arson, as well as white collar crimes such as embezzlement and fraud. After spending a decade working at large law firms, I began to realize that criminal defense law is different than all other types of law, and that means that people that find themselves in criminal court, need special and individualized plans to attack the government’s accusation, and just as no two people are alike, no two cases and no two defenses will ever be the same. You need advice. I offer same day free consultations, including weekends, holidays, and before and after traditional business hours. At our initial meeting you get my direct email address and personal cell phone number, and all clients are encouraged to call, email, or text 24/7 to address their worries as they arise. Since I personally answer each call, every client has virtually immediate access to me and no phone call will ever go unreturned.

Heather Posey

Steve is absolutely amazing and I cannot thank him enough for all that he has done for me and my family over the span of 4+ years. He was consistently there for me during the darkest of times and he never allowed me to give up. His expertise and knowledge is unmatched. He is a perfect balance of confidence and clarity while remaining calm in the face of blatant malfeasance. I count myself lucky to have found Steve and I will be forever grateful for his representation and his friendship.

Hands down Steve is the best attorney and friend Iv'e ever met in my life. his method of defense is amazing and the way he handled my case was mind blowing. Steve truly knows his way around a jury trial and the court. I couldn't be any happier with the outcome of my trial. i'll highly recommend Steve to anyone for anything he's the best. thank you Curtis.

I hired Steven Wright to help me when I was in a sticky situation. I found out I had a pending charge against me in North Carolina which is 8 hours from where I was living. I was also in the middle of a custody situation and needed to get the charge resolved ASAP. I was scared I was about to loose everything but thanks to Steven the charges were dismissed and quickly! Steven made everything easy to understand and walked me through the whole process!! Very reasonably priced and outstanding service! Highly recommended!

And STILL never received our money back. Awesome story!!!!! Disciplinary action: Censured in one matter and reprimanded in another on Feb. 8 Background: Wright was administratively suspended from November 2015 to February 2016. While representing a client in a criminal matter, Wright failed to comply with the client notification provisions of the wind-down rule and failed to file a motion to withdraw. Wright later misrepresented to the state bar that he had been paid in full by the client prior to his suspension. In a separate criminal defense matter prior to the suspension, Wright failed to timely communicate with his client and court officials and failed to comply with a scheduling order of the court. This misconduct resulted in the censure. In yet another matter Wright failed to provide a client with documentation that previous charges had been dismissed, leading to the reprimand.

Mr. Wright is an excellent attorney. I literally went to court once and he took care of everything just how he said from the start. Guaranteed anytime I need an attorney I can trust, he will be the first call I make. Thanks again Steve.
