Excellent Law Firm! This office is great at what they do and they truly care about each and every client. Thank you for all that you do!

Absolutely great law firm...the staff is courteous, and they treat you with absolute care and dignity! My lawyer was Vicki - she is both incredibly nice and extremely knowledgeable. Her and the staff took care of everything for me, and always kept in contact with me whenever something came up. They got my charge knocked down to a ticket, which was a giant weight off my shoulders! The entire process from beginning to end left me with a high level of reassurance and relief. There might be some law firms around the area that cost less and provide decent service, but honestly don't skimp on quality if you can afford it! They are worth every pennie - I wouldn't recommend anyone else!!

Mr. Snell, Emily, and his entire staff are genuine, caring, and professional. They have helped me immeasurably with issues great and small. Their effort and dedication never wavered even on the simplest of matters. Mr. Snell was always willing to speak to me to explain a point that confused me and never once made me feel like my concern wasn't important or was a waste of his time. I am extremely grateful for everything they do. If for any reason I was in serious trouble they'd be my first phone call.

James snell listens to what you have to say, and gives great advice I would recommend his law firm to anyone

Excellent Attorney with great staff. His knowledge of the CDV laws is unmatched! I highly recommend this young man. If you have a CDV charge in South Carolina you cannot go wrong with this law firm. I highly recommend this attorney!

Mr. Johnson provided guidance through a messy divorce and was able to help me out tremendously. Grateful for the time and effort he put into my situation. Had a situation arise at the last moment and he was able to cover down and make sure I was taken care of.

I would not recommend. Not a friendly staff in my experience, with an attitude towards internationals that you don't normally expect from an attorney that claims to be an expert on immigration.

If I could give less then one star I would...biggest waste of 5000$ I have ever spent. Do the research and get a real lawyer instead of the first thing that google pops up!!!!!

Very friendly and ready to attend to you ,what ever ur problem is, thanks

Very friendly

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.

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.

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!

I have had the experience of working with Mr. Tarr through a very difficult situation with a close family member. When we reached out to him, it was in the middle of the night and he answered the phone, not a recording or voicemail. He was able to give us great information immediately and guided and directed our family member on what he needs to do and action steps that he needs to take immediately. From the moment he took over his case, a huge amount of pressure was lifted. Not saying the process in no way was easy, but he was very honest and direct and we were able to build a trusting relationship with him that made it so much better. Because of his tenacity, everything was performed with a sense of urgency. He recognized there was a life hanging in the balance because of those charges. He was able to see him as a real person and because of his dedication , all of the charges for my family member ultimately were dropped. If you need a great attorney who will go the distance with you and your loved ones, I highly recommend David B. Tarr.

Mr Tarr I can never thank you enough for the outstanding job you did on my case! You are a true blessing and a lifesaver for me! To say I was a nervous wreck is an understatement, I felt so helpless. You went above and beyound and fought for me every step of the way, while keeping my mind at ease, and smile on my face. You are an exceptional lawyer with God given talent for what you do! You fulfill every promise you made from the beginning to the end and I will forever be grateful to you! Thank you Mr Tarr!!!! Thank you so much!!!

I came to David's office late in the legal process and full of worry. He put me at ease immediately and handled the situation with aplomb and precision. David is very personable and returned all of my calls and texts swiftly and kept me informed about what was happening and likely scenarios. I really can't suggest or endorse this guy enough-he is an absolute rockstar. He made a situation that could have had long lasting and serious consequences simply disappear. The entire experience was pleasant, affordable, and best of all-effective.

David is an amazing lawyer. He has help my son twice and this last time could have been really bad. David always returned my calls and text and answered any question I had. He is easy to talk to and makes you feel like you have known him forever. He puts your mind at ease in a very stressful situation. I would highly recommend Mr.Tarr the next time you need a defense attorney.

When i tell you this man is nothing short of amazing... it's not an understatement!!! Mr. Tarr went well above and beyond to keep me informed throughout this entire process .. also on the day of the hearing he was sharp, punctual and instantly put my mind at ease with his warm and welcoming demeanor... Needless to say an all around stand up guy... Thank you again for your time and wisdom

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.

    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.

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!

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
