Our Charleston office opened with seven lawyers in December 2011 and has since grown to more than 30 lawyers to accommodate the increasing demands of the business community and firm clients throughout South Carolina, the United States, and the world.

Our Charleston lawyers provide legal services in a number of areas of law, possess local knowledge of business, and have strong, established connections in the local and statewide business and legal communities. They represent local, regional, national, and global clients of all sizes in virtually every industry.

According to the South Carolina Department of Commerce, the state is home to the operations of more than 1,100 international firms. South Carolina’s central location between New York and Miami, its deep water port, major container shipping terminals, and Charleston’s international airport position the state well for global business. Many companies have chosen South Carolina to open or expand operations, specifically in the automotive, aerospace, technology, and life sciences industries.
