Having practiced law for years in many areas, such as criminal, real estate, family, probate, contracts, estates, negligence/personal injury, wrongful death, etc., Attorney Robert Johnston has narrowed down his practice to just two main area, namely personal injury and criminal defense. The reason is simple, staying current and sharp on one or two areas is far more feasible than trying to be good at 10 or 20 areas. Therefore, Robert Johnston comes with a vast amount of experience in both Personal Injury (which also includes Wrongful Death) and Criminal Defense (which also includes Drunk Driving and various Traffic Offenses).

Robert Johnston's experience, as with any good lawyer, is not just in taking cases to trial, but doing the necessary investigation and preparation to often avoid trial. Under the right circumstances, many cases can be won by simply preparing for court. Once it is clear to the other side that going to trial would not be in their best interest, reasonable settlement offers are made. Of course, is that does not happen, then we are prepared to try the case. Should the case go to trial, then experience is the key along with the necessary preparation and investigation.

If the case goes to trial, then experience is the key to success. Robert Johnston has years of experience in trying both Criminal and Personal Injury cases, and has handled trials from simple to Death Penalty Murder cases and Wrongful Death. He is licensed in every court in the state, including South Carolina Supreme Court, Circuit Court / Court of General Sessions and Common Pleas, State Court of Appeals, Magistrates Court and City/Municipal Courts.
