Bill Nettles possesses an extraordinary, almost unparalleled depth and breadth of experience. You cannot find an attorney who will be better equipped to provide you with the high-quality representation you deserve. Mr. Nettles was appointed United States Attorney for the District of South Carolina by President Obama and was sworn into that office on May 3, 2010. As the US Attorney, he dramatically overhauled the office to focus on public corruption, fraud and white collar crime, while also greatly increasing resources to the extraordinarily important false claims whistleblower division. Under Mr. Nettles' leadership, the US Attorney's office made white collar crime and public corruption the highest priority of the criminal division's efforts He also earned national praise for the innovative and intelligent approach his office took to drug crimes. Mr. Nettles was the longest serving US attorney since the 1960's, ensuring he had an extraordinary impact on the personnel and the policies of that important office. Because of his service as the United States Attorney for the entire state of South Carolina he has worked with the heads of the Department of Justice to help shape policy for the last 5 and a half years. Before being appointed a US Attorney, Mr. Nettles graduated from The Citadel and earned his law degree at The Widener University School of Law, where he was on law review and was a member of the moot court honor society. After graduating, he began a career that has taken him into every corner of the legal system. Mr. Nettles began his career as a public defender in Columbia, providing criminal defense services to indigent defendants who could not afford attorneys. During that time, he ensured that the legal system would not leave the economically disadvantaged behind. From 1997 to 2005, Mr. Nettles worked in private practice as a sole practitioner. He continued his criminal defense work and became one of the region's most well-respected "white collar crime" lawyers. He also represented clients accused of drug crimes, handled several court-appointed capital cases, twice tried cases that were argued before the United States Supreme Court and worked in medical malpractice and other torts. Starting in 2005, he worked at Sanders & Nettles, LLC until being appointed the US Attorney. As you can see, Mr. Nettles is experienced in a wide range of case types. He understands both state and federal criminal procedures and has the respect of every judge and opposing lawyer in the area.

Thomas Michael is a practicing lawyer in the state of Pennsylvania. Mr. Michael received his J.D. from the University of Pittsburgh in 2007.

People who are looking for an attorney are usually at some of the worst times in their lives. Whether you’ve just been arrested or have been injured because of someone else’s negligence, Michael will be there to help you and your family through the turbulent waters of the legal system. Admitted to practice in the Courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, Michael is a litigator who started his career clerking for the Honorable Vito P. Geroulo in the Court of Common Pleas of Lackawanna County. After learning how the legal system works from within a judge’s chambers, he began advocating in the criminal justice system as an Assistant District Attorney in the Lackawanna County District Attorney’s Office. He would later be appointed as a Special Prosecutor, assigned to the Northeastern Pennsylvania Auto Theft and Insurance Fraud Taskforce which has the jurisdiction to prosecute cases in 13 Pennsylvania Counties. He would later be named the Deputy District Attorney and Chief Prosecutor of the Felony Drug and Gun Crime Unit and was appointed as a legal advisor to the Lackawanna County SWAT team. During his time as a prosecutor, he had the opportunity to gain crucial experience in handling cases in the criminal justice system.

Through his tireless work ethic, he prosecuted an array of crimes including Murder, Assaults, Gun Crimes, Felony Drug Offenses, DUI’s and other crimes, taking several cases to verdict in front of a jury. After his time as a prosecutor, Michael shifted his legal practice to the private sector where he could utilize the knowledge, experience and time in the courtroom he had gained early in his career to advocate for clients on a much broader scale. Still maintaining his work ethic and passion for the law, he has helped clients with their criminal defense, car accidents, truck accidents, slip and falls, landlord tenant disputes, dog bites and much more.
