Gray Ellis

I founded Ellis Family Law, PLLC in 2008 with a clear mission to deliver top-notch legal representation to individuals in North Carolina grappling with complex family law issues. Since then, my firm has successfully advocated for numerous husbands, wives, children, grandparents, and other family members in courts throughout the state. Our efforts have been recognized with awards from both national and local entities including Super Lawyers, Martindale Hubbell, North Carolina’s Legal Elite, NC Lawyer's Weekly Power List, NC Leaders in the Law, and the BBB, among others. As a North Carolina Board Certified Specialist in family law with over two decades of legal experience, I manage Ellis Family Law with offices in Durham, Pittsboro, and Wake Forest, North Carolina. My certification as a family law specialist by the North Carolina Board of Legal Specialization underscores my commitment to providing unparalleled counsel and support to clients facing divorces or other significant legal challenges impacting their families. In my practice, I am known for the highly personalized counsel I offer, helping clients navigate complex decisions related to child custody and support, property division, alimony, and other pertinent issues. Having experienced marital separation personally, I approach each case with profound empathy, ensuring that I deliver effective representation with compassion and integrity. My dedication to professional excellence has been recognized with an AV Preeminent peer review rating* from Martindale-Hubbell and inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America, along with numerous other top rankings and endorsements from peers. Additionally, I have achieved a perfect 10 out of 10 client rating on Avvo.
