Shealey Law Firm - Columbia, SC

Twin Brothers Fighting for Your Rights

Shealey Law Firm is a premier criminal defense and civil litigation practice in Columbia, founded by twin brothers Brian and Luke Shealey. Established in 2013, the firm has earned a reputation for handling the most serious and high-profile cases in the Midlands. Both brothers began their careers as public defenders, gaining invaluable courtroom experience and a deep understanding of the criminal justice system. They believe that every person, regardless of the charges against them, deserves a vigorous defense. Their "in the trenches" experience allows them to spot weaknesses in the prosecution's case that others might miss.

• Civil Rights: pursuing "Section 1983" claims for individuals who have had their constitutional rights violated by police or government officials.
• Personal Injury: Representing victims of negligence to ensure they are compensated for their injuries.

A Family of Advocates

The dynamic between Brian and Luke Shealey sets this firm apart. They often collaborate on cases, giving clients the benefit of two seasoned legal minds for the price of one. Their background as public defenders instilled in them a passion for the underdog and a refusal to be intimidated by the power of the state. They are known for their honest, straightforward advice and their willingness to take cases to trial when necessary. The firm also handles expungements, helping clients clear their records and move forward with their lives.
