Aggressive & Effective Criminal Defense Attorney Representing Upstate Clients

If you are facing criminal charges, the freedoms and privileges you enjoy every day may be on the line.

We don’t want to see your quality of life harmed, so call us immediately following an arrest. We will examine the details of your case and advise you for moving forward.

Aggravated Assault

Assault is considered aggravated when there is the added severity of using a weapon or threatening great bodily harm or death during the course of the assault. Such a charge could wreak havoc on your life and prevent you from many career opportunities or from ever owning a firearm. The attorneys at our firm possess over 45 years of combined experience and will do everything in our power to protect your rights and freedom throughout this process.

Drug Possession

The state of South Carolina does not look kindly upon people caught with drugs in their possession. Even small amounts can result in a felony drug charge, so it is crucial that you secure high-quality criminal defense representation from a seasoned attorney as soon as you can. We will look for any legal loopholes or mistakes made by law enforcement officials and ensure that your rights are respected in court.

DUI

If you have been charged with a DUI offense, you need reliable and effective legal representation as soon as possible. The dedicated legal team at Ronald S. Clement Attorney at Law is here to defend your rights and fight to keep your future bright.

Felonies

Felony charges are simply not something to approach cavalierly. A felony conviction can carry jail sentences of many years, or even life in prison or the death penalty. We say this not to scare you, but to ensure you understand the gravity of the situation. Attorney Ronald S. Clement has decades of criminal defense experience and has successfully protected countless clients from terrible legal outcomes.

First-Time DUI

Thousands of people receive DUIs in the state of South Carolina every year and it does not mean that they are bad people. We all make mistakes sometimes, but that does not preclude you from deserving the best possible criminal defense in a DUI case. We have decades of experience defending the driving privileges of our clients and can help you, too. Don’t let one mistake derail your life, get the help you need today.

Misdemeanors

Even though they are technically less serious than felonies, misdemeanor convictions can still significantly impact your life. You could spend up to a year in jail and be subjected to heavy fines. Whether you are facing charges for drugs, theft, or anything else, we have the experience and skillset necessary to defend you. Don’t gamble with the quality of your criminal defense — contact our firm today.

Robbery & Grand Theft

Robbery and grand theft don’t always go hand in hand, but in many cases they do. Theft of items valued over $2,000 is considered grand theft while robbery is taking something worth more than $2,000 against the will of the owner with the intent of depriving them of it forever. The fine lines between these crimes can cross and bleed into one another but no matter what your charge is, we will provide you with the best defense we can.

Shoplifting

It’s considered shoplifting or petty theft if you’re caught stealing items totaling $2,000 or less. Perhaps you took something by accident or intended to return it later, or were unaware it wasn’t yours to take. Maybe you’re struggling financially and felt this was your only avenue. Whatever the reason, we’re here to help and will offer you unconditional support throughout your case.

Trespassing

Entering anyone’s property without their express permission is considered trespassing and a criminal act in South Carolina. Whether you intended to trespass or were unaware you weren’t supposed to be there unfortunately doesn’t make much of a difference in the eyes of the law. We will represent you to ensure you receive a fair trial and are afforded the best chance of seeing charges reduced or dismissed.
