Servant Law was founded on the principle of “Whoever desires to become a leader among you shall be your servant."Mark 10:43.  It was Jesus Christ who spoke these words. He made it clear that since he came to earth not to be served, but to serve, we should follow his example by being servants instead of being served.. I created Servant Law to serve the needs of my clients and community. Our focus at Servant Law is creating an irresistible atmosphere of excellence through which we help our clients navigate through troublesome times and obtain resolutions to legal problems in a manner that reflects the highest levels of legal representation, yet even more importantly reflects our intention to serve our clientele in a tangible way by protecting their integrity.. Outside of practicing law, I am a husband and a father. Family time and serving in the local church are also priorities. I am a lover of music and musician, with the saxophone being my primary instrument.  I enjoy writing and arranging music as well as participating in jam sessions with my jazz muscian friends. When I have the opprotunity, I also like to swing the tennis racket.

I became a lawyer to help people who have been injured. The only thing worse than a legal problem is a medical problem, and my highest goal is to help my clients obtain the best medical care available in the state of South Carolina. My next goal is to do everything possible to help my clients obtain all of the other benefits they may be entitled to, such as financial compensation, future medical care benefits, and other entitlements.. My wife is a Spanish instructor at the University of South Carolina. We have two young children, and three dogs. We live in West Columbia, South Carolina.
