Brian Shealey

Firm: The Shealey Law Firm, LLC
1507 Richland Street , Columbia , South Carolina 29201
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
Mr. Shealey attended the University of South Carolina and graduated with a BA in 2001. After finishing his undergraduate work and exploring what career paths excited him the most, Brian chose to study law in Boston, Massachusetts, and graduated from New England Law in 2007. Mr. Shealey worked for 5 years at the Richland County Public Defender’s Office before establishing the Shealey Law Firm, LLC. Mr. Shealey has spent the majority of his legal career defending the most violent charges, including clients charged with murder, armed robbery, rape and burglary. Throughout his career, Mr. Shealey has achieved an impressive number of acquittals at trial, but he always attempts to use his courtroom success in an effort to shield future clients from the risks of trial by getting favorable results before ever entering a courtroom. The time spent fighting for his client’s rights in trial has given him a unique set of experiences that he enjoys putting to work for all of his clients in his every day practice. Mr. Shealey is admitted to practice in all South Carolina State and Federal Courts.

Bill Nettles possesses an extraordinary, almost unparalleled depth and breadth of experience. You cannot find an attorney who will be better equipped to provide you with the high-quality representation you deserve.. Mr. Nettles was appointed United States Attorney for the District of South Carolina by President Obama and was sworn into that office on May 3, 2010. As the US Attorney, he dramatically overhauled the office to focus on public corruption, fraud and white collar crime, while also greatly increasing resources to the extraordinarily important false claims whistleblower division. Under Mr. Nettles' leadership, the US Attorney's office made white collar crime and public corruption the highest priority of the criminal division's efforts He also earned national praise for the innovative and intelligent approach his office took to drug crimes.. Mr. Nettles was the longest serving US attorney since the 1960's, ensuring he had an extraordinary impact on the personnel and the policies of that important office. Because of his service as the United States Attorney for the entire state of South Carolina he has worked with the heads of the Department of Justice to help shape policy for the last 5 and a half years.. If you're looking for an attorney you know you can trust in Columbia, Greenville, Charleston or any other community in South Carolina areas, please call the Law Office of Bill Nettles at  for a free consultation.
