I am a sole practitioner, having owned and operated my office since 1992. I tend to be direct and to the point which is how I would like to have someone advise me. It is not my practice to sugar coat information or to tell you what I think you want to hear. My experience has given me the insight to enable me to advise you truthfully and my background allows me to analyze a case from different perspectives, often using a unique approach to resolve your case. I have worked as a prosecutor, defense attorney, and judge. I use my experience to help you make the best decisions possible. I spent my early years as an attorney handling mostly felony criminal cases. In 1992, I included family court in my practice. I am always up to a challenge and often see the law as a giant puzzle where my expertise is finding the individual approach for every client.. I enjoy my work as an attorney and thrive in the courtroom. I have a wonderful staff to help keep you informed and knowledgeable. They do a great job but rest assured, I personally offer quality representation to you. I handle DUI, drug charges, and many other types of criminal defense. I also have a strong family court practice that includes child custody, divorce, alimony, paternity, and child support cases. I can help with other litigation such as contract disputes or personal injury. If it is in the courtroom, I am the attorney for you.

As a family law attorney in practice since 1994, I have the skills and experience to represent clients with issues relating to child custody, adoption, alimony, child support, visitation, and divorce. I practiced several years on my own and then in a partnership with my father, before joining DSS in 2003 to prosecute child abuse and neglect cases, so I also am keenly suited to represent clients in DSS-related matters. I had the pleasure to teach part-time as an adjunct instructor at Greenville Technical College for the paralegal, management, and criminal justice departments. I am a certified family court mediator and provide instruction for lay Guardians ad Litem. I joined McIlveen Family Law Firm in January of 2019 to focus on private sector needs. With my three children, we foster rescue dogs and stay involved in the Upstate community where I grew up.
