About Philip
Biography
I am a Columbia, SC attorney who is extremely passionate about helping people across the state. It is my duty and privilege to hold those responsible for causing our clients' injuries and breaking South Carolina's safety rules - the laws and regulations that are in place to keep everyone in our community safe.
I was born in Kentucky, but South Carolina has been home since my first birthday. After earning my bachelor's degree at Campbell University in North Carolina, I went on to graduate from College of Charleston School of Law.

Philip Hammond's Lawyer Endorsements
"I met Philip at the Summer Session of the National College for DUI Defense that was held at Harvard. I was in Philips trial skills group and I was impressed with his abilities. I would recommend Philip to anyone facing DWI charges."
"Philip is a great guy and a terrific lawyer. I met Philip at a conference for the National College of DUI Defense. Anybody facing a DUI charge needs a lawyer who understands BOTH the law and the science. Philip is that guy. He can challenge breath or blood results, field sobriety tests, and the arresting officer. If you are charged with a DUI in South Carolina, I wholeheartedly recommend Philip to defend you."
"Philip is a great Charleston DUI attorney that I would highly recommend to anyone in the area. He has a meticulous work ethic and real desire to help his clients. He is very knowledgeable in the area of DUI law and is not one of those lawyers that you hire and see one time. He follows through with each case from start to finish and treats each client with attentive detail. I highly recommend him if you have been charged with a DUI in Charleston."
"Phil is a passionate and meticulous advocate with a deep knowledge of the issues involved in DUI cases. I would recommend him to my friends or family if they needed a DUI attorney in Charleston."
