When I left the Solicitor's Office, I returned to my hometown of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and entered private practice. I have been actively practicing in Myrtle Beach since 1994. During my time in private practice, I have practiced in all of our courts, including municipal, magistrate, state circuit courts, and federal district court. I have represented over 2000 clients, including several high profile cases with extensive media coverage.
