Reinhardt Milam & Idol, PLLC. ("RM&I”) has been in operation since October 1, 2001. In connection with our practice, we have often asked us
many of the same questions. What follows is a "FAQ" (Frequently Asked Questions) for RM&I.
What happened to attorney Terry Fisher?
Terry Fisher left RM&I and formed his own firm on July 1, 2011. However, he located his new office right here at the Reinhardt Building, and shares space with our firm
here. Mr. Fisher’s new contact information is as follows:
Terry D. Fisher, P.A., Attorney at Law 401 N. Mangum Street, Durham, NC 27701 Telephone: (919)534-4500 Telefax: (919)383-9232 Email: terry@terryfisherlaw.com
Where is the RM&I office located?
RM&I used to have two staffed offices, one located in downtown Durham, and the other on
Morreene Road. In March, 2005, RM&I acquired the second floor of our downtown office, which provided plenty of office space to merge all of our attorneys and personnel into one location.
Directions to both our downtown offices and our unstaffed Morreene Road conference room office can be obtained from the RM&I directions page.
What is the status of the RM&I Branch Office on Morreene Road?
Beginning in March, 2005, RM&I expanded. The firm was able to acquire the second floor of the Reinhardt
Building at 401 North Mangum Street, which provided plenty of office space to merge all of our attorneys and personnel into one location.
Due to this expansion and the positive feedback surrounding our previous staffed branch office venture, RM&I decided to minimize its presence at the 921 Morreene
Road location from a fully staffed branch office to an unstaffed conference room for the use of our new mobile closing initiative. The unstaffed conference room is located in the same building at 921 Morreene
Road, and allows our attorneys to bring the convenience of a branch office to real estate firms throughout the Triangle area.
We value our clients and truly believe that by consolidating our operation, we will be able to effectively utilize all of our resources. This will ensure that we
provide the best service available to each of our clients.
