Highly Skilled and Strategic Employment Counsel

Our company retained Stephen Woods to defend us in a complex wrongful termination lawsuit. His deep knowledge of South Carolina employment law was immediately apparent. He leveraged his 15 years of focused experience in management-side litigation to develop a clear and effective strategy, ultimately leading to a favorable settlement before trial. We particularly appreciated his practical advice, which balanced legal rigor with our business objectives. His recognition in publications for Employment Law - Management is well-deserved. While his expertise is top-tier, there were occasional delays in email responses during non-critical phases, which is a minor point in an otherwise excellent representation. I would confidently recommend Mr. Woods to any business facing labor or employment disputes.
