This group is unbelievable. Incredibly professional, helpful, and responsive, and they really do get results. I can’t recommend them enough. I contacted them because of all of the positive reviews, and they delivered. If you need an attorney, Neal is your guy, and his paralegal Mackenzie is also amazing. Do not hesitate to contact this firm.

Being in a situation where you are looking for a lawyer is incredibly stressful, especially when you’re looking at costs too. As someone who’s never needed a lawyer, I met with a few to determine the best for my case- which was overwhelming to say the least. I came across Truslow and Truslow and decided to meet for a consult.. it was the best decision I ever made. I never felt pressured or talked down to, or made to feel like I was less than anyone. Neal spoke to me like I was a person and helped calm so much panic I had internally. He diligently worked on my case and didn’t settle for the easiest outcome, he made sure I came out on top without any worry about my future. I felt as if he genuinely cares about each case he takes and works on each case personally to make sure his clients have the easiest time during some of the hardest times of our lives. I would recommend Truslow and Truslow to ANYONE wanting hard working, HONEST legal representation that fights for you. Thank you again for everything.

I must say I recommend Truslow & Truslow, Attorneys at Law, for the first time using a law firm I was very delighted, I had a great experience if you want to be helped professionally this is the law firm to use. Communication, positive feedback and reliable that’s what they offer. Thanks a lot to the entire team.

Very knowledgeable on traffic issues, professional, and experienced. I was an out of state driver and Truslow evened the playing field.

I had a great experience with Truslow & Truslow, Attorneys at Law. They were very responsive to my needs and readily available. I highly recommend their services.

Mr. Matt Bodman was very knowledgeable, easy to contact with questions, and professional. He guided us through a legal process that gave us peace of mind. Thank you for your service.

Great attorney we loved working with him

Matt Bodman, P.A., was everything I needed in an attorney. Very reasonable fees, nonjudgmental, and very knowledgeable! If I ever need an attorney again, he will surely be my choice.

Matt is a highly skilled attorney who looks out for the client's best interest. I was arrested on two misdemeanor charges, and in a worst case scenario I was looking at up to two years in jail. But since this was my first brush with the law, Matt was able to get me into a Pretrial Intervention Program which would eventually lead to an expungement and clean record. He then showed extreme humility after I thanked him for his representation. I recommend him for any criminal troubles you might run into, as he takes every case seriously and is a very genuine person.

If you are looking for a great attorney Matt is your guy. He handle my case in a very professional manner and even followed up with me after the case. He is your Goto guy no case is too big or small. If you want the best results hire him.

Scott knows his stuff. Very impressed by his knowledge of law

Mr.Hayes is the guy and I give him all fives just because he's such a good lawyer and gets the job done. Whenever I had a question or anything about my case he was always there no matter what time of the day, I have his number on speed dial; just because I would always use him because how good he is an always letting others no two he's the man with a plan!

This has to be one of the most inexperienced conversations with a lawyer. Mr. Scott said as recorded. Police misconduct is not enough evidence. Officer placing a firearm in my rear compartment is probably the best thing the officer did to do me a solid. This is what Mr. Scott Hayes attorney at law said on a live recorded line. Adding to his conversation. What is the damages? That the officer could have had probable cause to place the firearm in my trunk of my vehicle. This is not enough money to feed my family. This is how I support my family. I never disagreed but at what point did I try to stop Mr.Scott family in my situation?. Either you can consult with me in person. View the live feed of body cam and police cruiser cam. This is not of good character of someone who has represented law enforcement of Richland deputy for seven(7)years. Very unprofessional and could be highly intelligent to some degree. A consultation is evidence of the Civil rights that I have been violated of..

My experience was excellent. He is well educated and connected between multiple states. He was able to do what 2 others said couldn't be done. Thank you again.

He is a wonderful lawyer! He knows how the system works and is top notch!

Getting the opportunity to work with Olivia Hassler was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. The level of compassion, tenacity, perseverance, dedication and professionalism that she brings to the table is unmatched. It is very evident that she cares for her clients and she will go above and beyond to make sure that each individual feels taken care of and well prepared for what's to come. I appreciate how transparent she was about the expectations from both parties involved up front and how truly knowledgeable she is. I will always be grateful for what Olivia has done for me and the positive impact she has made on my life! I highly recommend her services at Strom Law Firm! She's amazing!

When I needed help with a simple traffic ticket, Ally and her team did an amazing job! They were responsive and quick. However, Strom Law Firm as a whole is the best in the business. Their intake process is seamless, you have attorneys that fight for you every step of the way no matter how big or small the case might be, and their support staff communicates and works with you the entire time.

The Strom Law Firm has highly skilled and professional employees. Working with them on an acquaintance case, I saw a level of compassion that is rare to see in their line of work. Stephanie and Bakari are full of tenacity and perseverance! They worked on this case and followed it through to ensure a positive outcome. They make a great team! I highly recommend Strom Law Firm.

During the time I worked with Olivia, she was able to answer all my questions in a timely and professional manner. She never made me feel inadequate. Olivia has such a welcoming and comfortable presence. I HIGHLY recommend her to get the job done!!

I can tell you from first hand experience that if you want the BEST LEGAL DEFENSE TEAM in South Carolina, you need to choose Strom Law Firm. Stephanie, Bakari, and Ali worked extremely hard on my case. They achieved the goal set out before them even when we didn't think it was possible. The level of service, care, and compassion they have for their clients cannot be measured. I will always be grateful for their hard work and dedication to insure a positive outcome in my case. A Big kudos to Stephanie!

Well, the guy can't hear or see. Yes, you heard it right. I had a virtual initial hearing couple of weeks ago. Before the meeting, he tells me that he forgot his glasses at home but I didn't think much of it. I figured it'll be ok but only to find out that it was the least of my problems. He can't hear either. During the hearing, he was asking me what the plaintiff attorney or the Judge is saying. I mean come on. This leads to the judge leaning towards me to judge giving everything my ex's attorney asked. What does my attorney do, looked like someone stole his pants. I fired him right after the meeting ended. And guess what, he wouldn't give the money back either saying that my flat fee agreement say's that money is non-refundable. I couldn't believe it. I was like sure if you have represented me but you clearly did not! You can't hear or see and yet you wanna get paid for ruining my case? I'm going to file a complain about him and in the mean time, called my credit card and filed a dispute. So there you have it. If you have somewhat complex case, please seek help elsewhere. Just my sincere opinion.

I came to Mr. Kienker with an emotionally charged and difficult situation. Everything from the first consultation to the finalizing of my case was clear, concise, and flawless. I looked for representation across the Columbia area who's fees and rates in my opinion were outrageous for what I was asking and looking for. Mr. Kienker was upfront and honest about his services, fees and rates. Not to mention the fee's and rates were the most reasonable that I had come across so I had to ask him twice just to make sure I heard him correctly. Anyone and everyone looking for a hardworking and dedicated lawyer needs to talk to Mr. Kienker first. They will not be disappointed.

I Hired Dan for a Divorce In Columbia SC.He did not keep me informed at all. Dan mis-quoted the law, I had to correct him on several issues, such as property division, and amount of child support to be paid. Dan even miscalculated my support payments on my last hearing date before the judge. He listened to the defendant‘s lawyer, and without consideration of the facts, assumed that I was not making my support payments while I was under a temporary order. He is by far, an unfit attorney and should not be hired , retained, or considered for counsel.

Excellent service, very professional. Dan walked me through every stage of the proceess and explained and answered every inquiry. The outcome was very satifactory.

Hi Everyone, I cannot find the right words to express my gratitude and satisfaction to Daniel Kienker. Life can be ever changing and split in a second.I have been in a situation where my kids were taking away from me despite my visitation rights. Through a recommendation, I have Dan Kienker take my case. His professionalism, his critical thinking, compassionate and kindness are the first I noticed during my interview with him. Dan and his team are there at every twist and turns, everyday and at any time. Dan provided me the support and advice I needed. This has tremendously lowered my stress level and anxiety for missing my kids.He rightfully walked me through the process that would take little time and patience. At the end because of Dan perseverance and knowledge,I have what I needed. The outcome is for the best interests of the kids and fair to me. With a temporary order,I have my kids back living with me in joint custody. This situation is yet to be over as the GAL is involved. Despite the fear I have that my kids might be coached to say something or behave otherwise that would hurt my case in the future, I'm kindly extending my sincere appreciation to Dan Kienker and his team. He is the lawyer you need, if you are looking for an excellent one.I'm still working with him. THANKS DAN.. KEEP IT UP

    I Hired Dan for a Divorce In Columbia SC.He did not keep me informed at all. Dan mis-quoted the law, I had to correct him on several issues, such as property division, and amount of child support to be paid. Dan even miscalculated my support payments on my last hearing date before the judge. He listened to the defendant‘s lawyer, and without consideration of the facts, assumed that I was not making my support payments while I was under a temporary order. He is by far, an unfit attorney and should not be hired , retained, or considered for counsel.

    Hi Everyone, I cannot find the right words to express my gratitude and satisfaction to Daniel Kienker. Life can be ever changing and split in a second.I have been in a situation where my kids were taking away from me despite my visitation rights. Through a recommendation, I have Dan Kienker take my case. His professionalism, his critical thinking, compassionate and kindness are the first I noticed during my interview with him. Dan and his team are there at every twist and turns, everyday and at any time. Dan provided me the support and advice I needed. This has tremendously lowered my stress level and anxiety for missing my kids.He rightfully walked me through the process that would take little time and patience. At the end because of Dan perseverance and knowledge,I have what I needed. The outcome is for the best interests of the kids and fair to me. With a temporary order,I have my kids back living with me in joint custody. This situation is yet to be over as the GAL is involved. Despite the fear I have that my kids might be coached to say something or behave otherwise that would hurt my case in the future, I'm kindly extending my sincere appreciation to Dan Kienker and his team. He is the lawyer you need, if you are looking for an excellent one.I'm still working with him. THANKS DAN.. KEEP IT UP

Jack Swerling is the most honest lawyer in the midlands area! He is a very busy man, but takes one on time with his clients and has a very good personality! He also has great people working in his office! They all work together as one team to get the job done! I wish I could put 6 stars keep up the great work Jack Swerling!

Mr. Swerling and his staff are absolutely amazing! Your experience usually begins with the sound of his paralegal, Ebony‘s, friendly and professional voice. Mr. Swerling provides a flexible schedule for meeting with his clients during their unplanned and trying times. Mr. Swerling’s office also provides a comfortable environment to discuss your needs. His unprecedented knowledge and experience is top notch and superior to all the rest. Mr. Swerling has been representing my family members for over 20 years. His impeccable reputation proceeds himself in and outside of the courtroom. He’s never lost a case for my family and most times we never even saw a courtroom. I wouldn’t trust my family or friends in the hands of ANY other attorney. You can always rest assured knowing...”Jack’s Got Your Back”!

Mr Swerling and his staff have been a beacon of hope to my family from the 1st day we step foot into his office. His staff is very friendly and greets me by my name. Jack was always available to answer all of my questions.Very informative about each steps with my son’s case. He was able to defend my son’s case at the Supreme Courts and get him a new trial. I’m so happy with everything that transpired throughout this journey. Thank You Mr. Swerling and I would recommend you to everyone!!!

I found attorney Swerling, after doing extensive research for lawyers that is excellent for drug trafficking cases. After viewing the high profile, very complex cases, Attorney Swerling handles. I decided to give him a call. Unfortunately, he does not take cases that are, what is considered to him-old.Which was shocking because that is something so small-scale to a person of his caliber. For people sitting in prison, their cases are never old. I was hoping to at least receive a consultation, so the case could be looked into, or pointed in the right direction for my friends case. However, nothing went past my phone call inquiry. He may be excellent for new cases. But if your loved one is already sitting in prison, keep looking around.

Top lawyer in South Carolina!, Highly recommend for any legal services. Jack has been on top the whole time with great results. Cares very much for his clients!

The professionalism of the Shealey Law Firm is exceptional! During a difficult time in my life in addition to the pandemic the representatives of this law firm were very thorough, effective and efficient in their representation. Their communication was excellent. I never had to guess or wonder what was going on with my case. In addition, the concern and empathy that was shown is greatly appreciated. I’m sure that I wasn’t their only client but I was made to feel as if i was. If this is what you are looking for in a law firm I highly recommend the Shealey Law Firm. A special thank you to Mr. Truluck and Ms. Arnold.

This was difficult for me, as it was my first time with something more serious than a speeding ticket. Brian and Luke both reassured me, they along with their team would do everything in their power to make things right. Through the year and a half ordeal, Brian and his team worked diligently and got me free and clear of all charges. This team is knowledgeable and perfectly organized from Brian to his lead investigator to the best paralegal. Thank you is not enough for what Shealey Law Firm has done for me.

I highly recommend this firm. They were willing to work with me and take monthly payments while representing me. They work very hard for a positive outcome and are very professional!!

The team at Shealey Law Firm have been extremely helpful through a legal process that has had a number of complications, including a global pandemic. They have gotten results for me and when money was tight, they were willing to work out a payment plan for the representation fee. I could not recommend them more highly!

Brian was extremely knowledgeable about the laws surrounding my case and was very straight forward with me and went through the evidence with a fine tooth comb and was able to get my desired outcome.

Josh and Chris are both top notch attorneys who I have known for many years. They are hard-working, ethical, smart, and get great results for their clients. I would highly recommend them for both criminal and civil matters.

Would highly recommend anyone to use this law firm. I've personally dealt with Chris Leonard for years and to this day if I need to obtain a lawyer for any reason or if I just need some lawyer advice, he is the first one that I call and recommend to anyone to use. I've also used Tivis Sutherland that is a lawyer at this firm. And had a pleasant experience and great outcome of results with as well.

I was involved in a motor vehicle accident and was getting no where with the at faults insurance company. I asked around for personal injury lawyers and was referred to Kendrick and Leonard! My car was totaled and Mr. Leonard came to my place and walked me through the process and answered all of my never ending questions. Mr. Leonard took care of everything from recommending medical providers, dealing with the insurance company, and gathering medical records and bills! Mr. Leonard was very responsive and communicative with me in a prompt manner throughout the process.I settled for much more than I expected and couldn’t be more grateful to the firm! I am extremely grateful for all of their hard work and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone involved in an accident!!

Christopher did a great job getting my issue resolved. He also assisted my wife in an unrelated issue. We are very happy with his service and while I hope to not need it again, I'm glad to have built this relationship and would retain him again!

Mr. Moses went up and beyond for this family in a difficult time of our lives. He kept updated all the way and never left our side in this matter. He was very professional and very effective. i will be recommending Mr. Moses in the future for anyone who needs a great lawyer. He was outstanding. Thank you so much for what you did for this family.

Had the pleasure of working with The Law Offices of Marion M. Moses. Was extremely impressed with the relationship. Very transparent, very timely and very effective. Would recommend to anyone in need, fantastic representation.

Attorney Marion M. Moses and his staff took lead in a motor vehicle claim for my son. I was exhausted from the car accident itself, to the hospital visits, billing, and trying to figure out the claims process. They ultimately took a weight off me. Everyone is very professional; and their service was excellent. And If I had any questions whether for Marion or Elizabeth, I had a response back the same day. Our sit-down visit in the office was highly informative and personable. I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need.

The one thing that stands out about Attorney Moses, he is straightforward about your case. Very honest and up front on what to expect. He didn’t overstate that he would get a huge settlement but, said he would work hard to get the max he could and he did! Extremely satisfied with the way they handled my MVA and I hope I never have to use their service again but I wouldn’t hesitate to call them for any legal issues.

Great law office kept me well informed and definitely took care of me. Definitely an expert and completely trust them.
