Only a very small number of lawyers are ever privileged to have a case reach the state’s highest Court. Art Aiken, a partner at Reeves, Aiken & Hightower, LLP, recently argued a case of first impression dealing with injuries sustained while playing a casual “pickup” game of softball. While there are many defenses to such claims, Art is fighting on behalf of his personal injury client because this particular game went far beyond anything a reasonable person would have expected and was seriously injured as a result. We are very proud of our partner and his willingness to take on the tough cases.
Mr. Aiken has over 22 years experience in taking and arguing appeals in both state and federal courts. Columbia attorney Art Aiken argues case before the South Carolina Supreme Court as well as the South Carolina Court of Appeals. If you are an attorney with a case on appeal or which needs to be appealed, contact Mr. Aiken at 803-799-5205 to discuss.

The Million Dollar Advocates Forum is pleased to announce that attorney Robert J. Reeves of Fort Mill, SC has been certified as a member.
The Million Dollar Advocates Forum is recognized as one of the most prestigious groups of trial lawyers in the United States. Membership is limited to attorneys who have won million and multi-million dollar verdicts, awards and settlements. The organization was founded in 1993 and there are approximately 3,000 members located throughout the country. Less than 1% of U.S. lawyers are members. Forum membership acknowledges excellence in advocacy, and provides members with a national network of experienced colleagues for professional referral and information exchange in major cases. Members must have acted as principal counsel in at least one case in which their client has received a verdict, award or settlement in the amount of one million dollars or more.
What makes this South Carolina lawyer and his law firm stand out is the fact that the firm has two members of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum. Both personal injury attorney Reeves and his associate Arthur Aiken are members.

In addition to the award itself, membership allows me to exchange information with a network made up of the top attorneys in the nation, which means I can benefit from the experience of successful colleagues.
