About this office:

Buist Moore Smythe McGee P.A. was established in 1970 with the merger of two of Charleston's oldest law firms and traces its origins back to a firm founded in 1827.

The firm has forty lawyers who practice throughout South Carolina in the areas of business and civil litigation. The firm's business law practice includes commercial and corporate representations, including mergers and acquisitions, banking, real estate, tax, probate, estate planning, health care, environmental, employment, media, state tax incentives and economic development. The litigation practice includes class actions, product liability, bankruptcy and creditors' rights, construction, insurance coverage, insurance defense, and general civil litigation. Approximately half of the firm's lawyers are active litigators working daily in state and federal trial and appellate courts.

Buist Moore Smythe McGee P.A. represents shipowners and their insurance underwriters in South Carolina's two busy ports and has long been recognized as the state's leading admiralty firm. The firm and its clients are deeply involved in the burgeoning business development in Charleston and the surrounding area.
