Our collaborative approach to solving our clients’ legal problems. When you hire Ellis Hinton you get two former federal prosecutors with our collective knowledge, experience and dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for any case.
From our first meeting with a client we begin to craft the most effective strategy to achieve the client’s goal, whether that be acquittal at trial, convincing a prosecutor not to charge the case, or a satisfactory verdict or settlement in civil litigation. With Ellis Hinton you get the work product and resources of a large firm, with the personal attention and clear vision of a boutique practice.
What makes us unique is our collaborative approach to solving our clients’ legal problems. When you hire Ellis Hinton, you get two former federal prosecutors with our collective knowledge, experience, and dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for any case.
Each client benefits from two seasoned trial lawyers in South Carolina who work together on strategy, preparation, and courtroom presentation. Having served as federal prosecutors, we know how the other side builds its case. That perspective allows us to anticipate arguments, identify weaknesses, and craft defenses that stand firm when tested in court.
From high profile cases that make the news to declinations and confidential civil settlements that are never public, Ellis Hinton is in the business of solving complex problems. While the high profile wins are fantastic, we believe that sometimes the best results are those that you don’t hear about.
Some results appear in public records, but many of our most important victories never reach the news. Our focus is on protecting clients, not on publicity. From defending complex criminal cases to resolving civil matters before trial, we measure success by outcomes that align with the client’s goals.
Over the course of their careers, Sloan Ellis and Brandi Hinton have successfully defended and prosecuted thousands of criminal cases and resolved numerous civil matters where they have recovered substantial settlements for their clients. The matters listed below are a sampling of the success they have had. Please note that any results achieved in past cases are not necessarily indicative of results in the future. Every case is different.
