Well-Being in Law Week reminds us of the importance of caring for ourselves and each other. We appreciated the chance to learn from Frances Brown Anderson during this week's lunch and learn with the @SCBAR's Lawyers Helping Lawyers program.

RG Partner Ben Gooding recently participated in a pro bono event hosted by the John Belton O'Neall Inn of Court and the @SCBAR Pro Bono Program that provided wills for Habitat for Humanity homeowners.

Kudos to all the volunteers for their commitment to this cause!

Attorney/author Angus Lawton visited @Charleston_Law to speak to students about alternative dispute resolution. Lawton's book, Mediation and ADR in Civil Matters in SC is published by the @SCBAR. Vice Dean Lawton and Professor McElreath served on the book's editorial board.

A week ago, I asked the Courts for three weeks of protection to be with my wife after the birth of our firstborn. Today, unsolicited, I received a small gift for the baby in the mail from an opposing counsel wishing us well. I love being a lawyer in South Carolina. @SCBAR

[Robinson Gray @RobinsonGraySC]

Today’s ‘Ethics & Easements’ CLE was a success!

Our attorneys & their co-panelists presented on various topics regarding legal malpractice law in SC & beyond. Thank you to the @SCBAR for hosting this CLE and to our guest panelists for sharing their valuable insights with us.

[Goings Law Firm @goingslawfirm]

Last week, Jess Gooding presented at the @SCBAR's Continuing Legal Education (CLE) annual seminar, It's All A Game: Top Trial Lawyers Tackle Evidence, where she discussed trial issues such as evidence being destroyed and witnesses who plead the 5th. Don't miss her presentation this Friday, where she will be on the Plaintiff's team in @abota_sc's annual Masters In Trial CLE!

"On February 17, 1975, the South Carolina Supreme Court adopted rules creating and establishing the South Carolina Bar... [t]hus, the merger was complete, a debate which began in 1934 concluded, and all lawyers of South Carolina became unified in one Bar." https://t.co/3F0C59TORM

[Robinson Gray @RobinsonGraySC]

Our attorneys had a wonderful time learning and networking at the @SCBAR's 2025 Convention last week! RG attorneys Rob Tyson and La'Jessica Stringfellow were honored to give presentations. La’Jessica spoke at the @SCBarYLD Luncheon, and Rob presented on Election Law in SC.

Panel Discussion: “Resilience: What it Takes to Make a Comeback”

Today, I embraced vulnerability. Sharing my stroke story was a cathartic experience with peers who were unaware of my journey. I am grateful for the opportunity to share golden nuggets about resilience.

@SCBAR
