As a trial lawyer, I am committed to helping people that have experienced a life-changing event or crisis and found themselves with a real fight on their hands – a fight that many times involves powerful and connected interests on the other side. Regardless of the opposition, my approach remains the same – build the strongest case possible for trial and let the results speak for themselves.A Few Career Highlights:// Since I began practicing law in 2011, I have helped achieve $185+ million on behalf of injured clients – including $54+ million in jury verdicts and more than $60 million for victims of drunk driving.// I am a principal author of the book, “South Carolina Dram Shop Litigation: A Practice Guide” and a contributing co-author of, “South Carolina Damages, Second Edition, Dram Shop Liability”, both published by the South Carolina Bar.// I am the co-author of, “Dram Shop Discovery”, published by the American Association for Justice’s (AAJ) Trial Magazine.// I speak regularly on representing victims and have conducted numerous trainings, presentations, and CLEs on Dram Shop Litigation for law enforcement agencies, the South Carolina Bar, The Charleston School of Law, the South Carolina Association for Justice (SCAJ), The National Association of Legal Assistants (NALA), and Strafford Publications.// As a lawyer advocate for victims, I am a Board Member of MADD South Carolina, a member of The National Crime Victim Bar Association, The National Organization for Victim Assistance (VOCA), The National Alliance of Victims’ Rights Attorneys & Advocates (NAVRA) and have undergone victim advocacy training through the U.S. Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime Training and Technical Assistance Center (OVC TTAC).// I am a member of The National Trial Lawyers: Top 100 and South Carolina Super Lawyers.Over the course of my career, I have learned that individuals who have been injured or harmed often feel powerless and faced with problems that seem insurmountable.
