Edward H. Maginnis is the managing attorney of Maginnis Howard, a Wake County civil litigation firm located in Raleigh, NC. Unlike many firms, Maginnis Law represents both plaintiffs and defendants in lawsuits. On the plaintiffs side, his practice is focused on consumer class actions and business litigation. He is the former chair of the Consumer Areas of Practice at the North Carolina Advocates for Justice.

Maginnis Law handles consumer cases falling under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), and corresponding state law statutes. They provide protection to victims of overly aggressive corporations who care little about accurate records and consumer-friendly policies. Maginnis Law takes the fight to those corporations.

In business law, Maginnis Law represents corporations and LLCs, from Fortune 500 companies to small business startups, in contract disputes, minority shareholder cases, non-compete agreements, and trade secret violations. Their wage and hour cases focus on representing employees who are wrongfully denied overtime, bonuses, minimum wage, commissions, or other owed income.
