Young Moore and Henderson, P.A.

What Young Moore and Henderson, P.A. does

Young Moore and Henderson, P.A. is a privately held professional corporation organized as a North Carolina law firm, founded in 1954 and headquartered at 3101 Glenwood Ave., Suite 200, Raleigh, NC. The firm delivers legal services across four primary domains: civil litigation, business transactions, estate planning, and administrative law, organized into 23 ranked practice areas including business and administrative law, employment litigation, healthcare, insurance, transportation and logistics, trusts and estates, state and local tax controversy, appellate practice, retail and hospitality, medical malpractice defense, and workers' compensation. Revenue is generated on a professional services model, billed predominantly on an hourly basis with selected matters handled on contingency; specific pricing is not publicly disclosed.

The firm serves a horizontal mix of corporate clients and individuals. Corporate clients span healthcare providers (hospitals, physicians, nursing homes), insurance carriers (including representation of the North Carolina Rate Bureau), motor carriers, brokers, and 3PLs in the trucking industry, electric cooperatives, retail and hospitality operators, and employers across industries; individuals are served primarily through estate planning, trust administration, and wealth preservation engagements. Distribution is entirely direct, conducted through attorney-client relationships, referrals, professional association participation, and conference sponsorships. The firm maintains a single Raleigh office but extends effective geographic reach through its membership in ALFA International, a global network of 150+ law firms.

The technology posture is that of a traditional professional services firm: no proprietary software products, no API exposure, no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, and no app-based client interfaces. Marketing and business development rely on attorney-attended industry conferences (NCTA, NCHCFA, NCADA, SHRM), thought-leadership blog content, LinkedIn presence, and relationships cultivated through ALFA International, NCBA, DRI, and similar organizations. Leadership transitioned in 2023 when Dawn M. Dillon became the first woman to serve as Managing Partner since the firm's founding.
