Rising Star
Super Lawyers 2013.0
Note: Super Lawyers, including lawyers accepted to the Super Lawyers Rising Stars list, selects attorneys using a patented multiphase selection process. Peer nominations and evaluations are combined with third party research. Each candidate is then evaluated on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement. Selections are made on an annual, state-by-state basis. No more that 2.5 % of the lawyer in the State of South Carolina are selected to the Rising Stars list each year. The objective is to create a credible, comprehensive and diverse listing of attorneys that can be used as a resource for attorneys and clients searching for legal counsel. Since Super Lawyers is intended to be used as an aid in selecting a lawyer, it limits the lawyer ratings to those who can be hired and retained by the public, i.e., lawyers in private practice and Legal Aid attorneys.
