104 South Pine Street, Summerville, South Carolina
As a private practitioner, criminal defense attorney, and former prosecutor, I am known throughout the legal community as a respected and effective attorney who has built up a wealth of knowledge and resources to handle your legal issues.
I was born in the lowcountry of South Carolina and attended grade school in Moncks Corner, South Carolina. After high school I received a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice from Charleston Southern University where I then began a career at the Dorchester County Solicitor’s Office with then Solicitor Walter Bailey. In 2005, I graduated law school at Mississippi College School of Law and continued at the Solicitor’s Office under Solicitor Robby Robbins.
While in law school, I was on law review, and moot court before graduating magna cum laude as one of the “top 5” of my graduating class. After law school, I clerked for the law firm of Barnwell, Whaley, Patterson, and Helms on Daniel Island, South Carolina. In 2005, I then continued my time at the Solicitor's Office as a prosecutor where I later became the Senior General Sessions Court prosecutor, prosecuting serious felony crimes.
After 8 years as a prosecutor and over 14 years experience with the court system, I entered into private practice establishing the law firm of Russell D. Hilton, Attorney at Law, LLC. As a prosecutor, and now as private practitioner, I have handled thousands of cases and am prepared to handle yours.
