Although I do not personally know and have not ever met Ms. Smith we have both offered answers to several of the same questions on AVVO. I have been impressed with Ms. Smith's knowledge of the law, but even more so by her insight into the legal process. I have been a practicing attorney for a quarter of a century and I can tell the real deal from the snake oil salesmen. Ms. Smith is the real deal. If ever I have occasion to refer someone for Personal Injury, Consumer Protection, Landlord-Tenant or Contracts and Agreements, rest assured that I will direct them straight to Victoria Smith's Daniel Island, SC law office. I happily endorse this lawyer.
