2023 Legal Elite

Aug 04, 2023 03:53PM ● By Donna Isbell Walker

2023Greenville Business Magazine, Columbia Business Monthly, and Charleston Business Magazine honor South Carolina attorneys each year by publishing our Legal Elite section.

We’re spotlighting the top vote recipients in 50 categories, all of them voted on by area attorneys, and providing a list of attorneys recognized by their peers.

Legal Elite is the only regional awards program that gives every active attorney the chance to participate. Attorneys are allowed to nominate members of their own firm. However, for each in-firm nomination there must be an out-of-firm nomination as well. The lists are determined solely by lawyers’ votes from our Legal Elite nomination form online; places on the list are not for sale. Attorneys are not allowed to vote for themselves.

We appreciate the participation from lawyers across the state. Thank you for your support of Legal Elite 2023.

The Legal Elite selections for 2023 are presented on the following pages, and we are pleased to honor these attorneys.
