I was born and raised in Walterboro, South Carolina.  After graduating in 1969 with a BS in Business Administration from the University of South Carolina, I went to the University of South Carolina School of Law, where I earned my Juris Doctorate Degree in 1973.  After graduation from law school, I formed the partnership of Hunter & McWhirter with James Earl Hunter.  Hunter & McWhirter was a general practice law firm with an emphasis on personal injury law.  That same year I was admitted to practice by the Supreme Court of the State of South Carolina, the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina and, later, was admitted to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.. In 1977, I was elected by the Lexington County Bar Association to the position of Public Defender for Lexington County.  The office was formed for the purpose of providing legal representation to indigent criminal defendants, and I held that position for fourteen years.. While working part-time as Public Defender for Lexington County, I continued to build our law practice, and in 1986, formed the firm which became McWhirter & Associates.  At that time, our practice focused on the various areas of personal injury law, including workers' compensation, auto accidents, medical malpractice, wrongful death, premises liability and products liability.  In 1988, we expanded the firm to include an office in Columbia, South Carolina.  Since then, we have added offices in Orangeburg, Sumter, Newberry, Camden and Aiken.. We continue to strive to give the very best legal service to the thousands of clients we have been honored to serve over the past 40 years.. Any result our firm may achieve on behalf of one client in one matter does not necessarily indicate similar results can be obtained for other clients.

I help families who want to address challenges and transitions fairly, peaceably, cost effectively, and in ways that result in sustainable, workable, long term solutions.  The families who are attracted to my services are those who want to achieve fair and sustainable results, and who wish to do so without treating each other as enemies or adversaries.. I have been licensed as an attorney since 1984 and practicing non-adversarial family and elder law and mediation since 2009.  My training in mediation includes study with nationally recognized mediators such as Carl Schneider, Richard Blackburn, and Zena Zumeta.  I am a member of the family and elder sections of the Association for Conflict Resolution.

I began my legal career representing insurance companies and carriers defending doctors and other medical providers who were accused of medical malpractice. After a few years, I turned my focus to representing victims of serious injury, including medical malpractice, and seeking justice for them and their families.  I am very passionate about helping victims in personal injury cases get back on their feet and hopes that clients look to me as not just an attorney, but as someone they can count on as a friend. One of my favorite parts of being an attorney is getting to work with people from all walks of life. I am a big believer in and user of technology throughout the litigation process.  I work side-by-side with my firm’s media department to develop presentations that incorporate videos, documents, and illustrations, so that key points of a case can be easily and quickly explained to judges, juries, mediators, and arbitrators.

In my thirty years of practicing law, I have always tried to give my clients superior representation at a fair price. I can not guarantee results, but I can guarantee that I will fight for you to the best of my ability. If necessary, I will get down in the foxhole with you. If you are fighting the government in a criminal case, I will do my best to see that you prevail.

In 2008 I graduated from the University of Miami's School of Law and immediately moved to South Carolina to practice criminal law.  Within my first two years of practice I argued before the Supreme Court of South Carolina and helped to change the law in South Carolina to the benefit of my clients.  After an additional five years of practice with larger firms and many more cases, I decided to open the Truluck Law Firm.  I am at all times committed to the practice of law and it is my goal to provide responsive representation to keep my client's informed of their options throughout the legal process.

In 1998, the South Carolina Supreme Court certified me as a specialist in Bankruptcy and Debtor-Creditor Law. I have extensive experience representing creditors, debtors, and trustees in bankruptcy and in representing litigants in the State and Federal Courts of South Carolina. I seek to bring all of the tools of an attorney to problem solving. Through negotiation, mediation, litigation, and possibly bankruptcy, I strive to always accomplish the clients goals in as cost efficient and cost effective manner possible.

In those situations, you will need to make sure your attorney is willing to take your case to trial and fight for you. I am trial tested and willing to see your case through to the end.
