He earned his J.D. from Mercer University’s Walter F. George School of Law in 1999. He then spent a year clerking for Georgia Superior Court Judge C. Michael Roach before taking a job with an Atlanta firm that did primarily insurance-defense work, concentrating his practice there on cases involving products liability, nursing-home defense, construction, and well as mass-tort litigation. Jeremy and his wife, Suzanne, both grew up in the Spartanburg area and wanted to move home to raise their kids. In 2002, he returned to South Carolina and began working with a prestigious Greenville-based defense firm, before coming to work here in 2005. From the beginning, Jeremy’s expertise as an insurance-defense lawyer proved beneficial in crossing over to represent plaintiffs. “Having a background as a law clerk and defense attorney is really useful in trying to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of any given set of facts,” he says. “I believe assessing a case from both perspectives is crucial to success.” While his appellate work has provided him with several personal highlights, Jeremy maintains there is no bigger thrill than helping a deserving client. “There is something profoundly satisfying about standing with a person who truly needs your help and delivering results in their time of need. There are lawyers that can go through their entire careers and never know that satisfaction, and we at this firm are blessed to be in a position to really make a difference.” Outside of work, Jeremy loves sports – especially football, baseball, and basketball. Jeremy and Suzanne have three sons and a daughter. Jeremy loves to hunt and fish, which he tries to do as often as he can. He and his wife are active members of their church, and enjoy spending as much time as possible with their family and friends.
