Wow... I don't even know where to begin. After my accident, I was initially considering just accepting whatever the insurance company offered for my damages, it wasn't my fault, and the tickets reflected that. But low & behold, Jehovah God guided me to Mr. Joe Terrious Neal. He is the most genuinely caring and compassionate lawyer I have ever met. All I can say is, 'But GOD!' Right from the start, he made sure that I was okay and advised me not to settle since I wasn't the one at fault for the accident. I truly appreciated how he prioritized my well-being above everything else. I have to admit, I'm terrible at returning calls, let alone answering my phone. Despite that, Mr. Neal took the time out of his busy schedule to personally check up on me to ensure I was okay. His team possesses exceptional communication skills; I never had to worry throughout the entire process. He truly lifted the burden off my shoulders. Thank you for ensuring me not to settle for less than I deserve.
From Day one, Joe was there for our family to walk us through every part of this process. His explanation of the key details and our options were excellent. I would strongly recommend Joe to anyone in need of legal services.
I am so thankful to have Michael and his paralegal Michele as my legal team during an incredibly stressful and high conflict divorce process. Their responsiveness and empathy toward my case brought so much value to my experience. Michael won’t sugar coat things and will always provide what you need to strengthen your defense. He is incredibly knowledgeable of South Carolina family law and will fight for the best interest of your family. He’s an incredible advocate to have in your corner.
I want to express my gratitude for the wonderful service I've received over the past many years. I'm very appreciative and extremely thankful for all you've done for me. I really don't know where I'd be without someone solid like you in my corner! Thank you!
Working with Joe was my first time ever working with a lawyer regarding an accident. I didn’t know what to expect or how to go about the process. I needed someone I could trust and make things super easy for me as I experienced a tough time. He is very kind and knowledgeable. He doesn’t under or over communicate. He communicates as he receives updates or other information I needed to know. He was also very patient and thorough throughout the entire process. The amount of stress I experienced prior to meeting him was lessened by the trust that was formed. I valued his advice and support throughout my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for resolution after an accident. Prayerfully, I never have to work with him again under those circumstances. But, I’d choose him again if ever needed. Thank you again Joe! For everything.
I was in a hit & run with my children back in January 2024. Me and my husband kept getting the run around from the insurance company. He decided to get a lawyer to get things handled. We went with Joe’Terrious Neal. Best decision we could have made. Mr. Neal was very responsive and knowledgeable. He kept us updated about the case. It was such a great pleasure working with Mr. Neal. He got our case handled in a timely fashion. I would Highly recommend Joe’terrious Neal to anyone needing legal help.

I interviewed several attorneys after multiple frivolous cases were filed against me by my ex-husband and Michael was the only one who had a strong plan of action and strategy to defend me. Michael successfully defended me against 96 contempt’s of court, won my case at the South Carolina State Court of Appeals (Beach v. Beach, 2024), and successfully defended me against a custody modification case. Michael has an excellent reputation, astounding credentials, and really takes his cases personally. His work is impressive, he’s very intelligent, and even recites laws off the top of his head in court. We attended many court hearings together and all the judges even said I had an excellent attorney. Michael and his paralegal, Michele Allen, work very well together as a team. They are both very informative and prepare you well for court. I honestly wish I had them when I filed for legal separation and divorce six years ago. I'm truly grateful for both of them and for getting me through this.
If you are looking for an extremely knowledgeable, hardworking, professional, compassionate, and empathetic family attorney, I can't recommend Michael Smith enough. I am extremely grateful for the work Michael, Michele Allen, and Joe Neal put into my case. This team went above any beyond and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
Attorney Michael Smith and Paralegal Michele Allen did a wonderful job with my divorce. Both are very knowledgeable, communicative and compassionate. Collaboration on my best options were established at the very start, and it was a team approach to ensure my best interests were a priority.
