Skilled and knowledgeable estate litigation attorney

Mr. Sumner expertly handled a complex dispute over my late uncle's trust, where a beneficiary was contesting the terms. His deep knowledge of South Carolina trust law was evident, and his recognition in this field is well-deserved. He was strategic, prepared, and ultimately secured a favorable settlement. While his response time to emails could occasionally be a day or two, his courtroom performance and advice were always top-notch. I felt well-represented by someone who clearly knows this niche area inside and out.
