Samuel Barton Tooker's Lawyer Endorsements
"Sam Tooker and I worked together in the Solicitors Office for several years. He has a strong work ethic, is intelligent, and has a deep understanding of our criminal justice system. I'd strongly recommend bringing Sam onto your case and have him fighting for your rights."
"Sam and I were college roommates. We recently happen to represent a client in common on an extradition from NC to SC for drug charges. I handled the extradition process while Sam expertly handled the substantive drug charges. He was able to get the charges completely dismissed in a very short amount of time. I'm happy to endorse Sam both personally and professionally."
"I met Sam when he was a prosecutor in Pickens County. It was immediately apparent that he was very talented, hard working and fair. He has taken that experience and truly become a complete criminal defense lawyer. Sam gets unbelievable results for his clients. I highly recommend him."
"Sam and I worked together at the solicitor's office. He has tons of trial experience and is an aggressive advocate for his clients. He is extremely intelligent and hardworking."
"I would happily recommend Mr. Tooker to any of my friends or family that were injured. He is an incredibly intelligent lawyer who treats people with dignity and respect."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Not only is Mr. Tooker a fantastic attorney, but you can tell that he cares deeply for the well being of his clients and is passionate about his work. I would highly recommend him to my own family."
