About Michael
Biography
Michael J. Jordan focuses his legal practice on helping people who have been injured through no fault of their own. Clients often seek legal assistance during some of the most stressful periods of their lives following a serious accident or workplace injury. Michael works to provide both guidance and strong legal representation during these difficult times.
He understands that the effects of a serious injury reach far beyond medical treatment. Families may face financial pressure, emotional stress, and uncertainty about what lies ahead. Michael approaches each case with a commitment to protecting his clients’ rights and helping them move forward after an unexpected setback.
Michael grew up in Columbia, South Carolina, and attended the University of South Carolina, where he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree. He later obtained his law degree from Florida Coastal School of Law. After graduating, he joined Steinberg Law Firm, a firm known throughout South Carolina for its advocacy on behalf of injured workers and accident victims.
Over the course of his career, Michael has earned recognition for his work in the legal field. He has been honored in Best Lawyers in America for multiple years, selected as one of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers, and his courtroom work has been highlighted in South Carolina Lawyers Weekly.
Michael also plays an active role in the legal profession. He previously served as President of the Berkeley County Bar Association and President of the South Carolina Injured Workers’ Advocates. In addition, he maintains memberships in several professional organizations, including the South Carolina Bar and the South Carolina Association for Justice.
Outside the courtroom, Michael supports a number of charitable and community organizations. His involvement with groups such as Lowcountry AIDS Services, Trident Literacy Association, and Kids’ Chance of South Carolina reflects his commitment to strengthening the communities he serves.

Car Accident
After I was injured in a car accident I hired this attorney. Although it took a long time due to the pandemic and the other sides insurance company trying to wait me out, we settled for more than I thought possible.

Auto Accident
Michael was a pleasure to work with. He kept things moving as well as keeping us informed along the way. We could not be happier with the outcome and how our case was handled. Without a doubt, if I ever need assistance again, Michael and his team will be our first and only call.
