Kolb & Givens, Attorneys at Law, LLC | Criminal Defense and Personal Injury in Sumter, SC (h1)
Kolb & Givens, Attorneys at Law, LLC is located at 107 North Main Street, Sumter, South Carolina 29150, half a block from the Sumter County Courthouse. Founding attorney Wade S. Kolb, Jr. earned his Juris Doctor from the University of South Carolina School of Law in 1974 and established the firm in 1998 after a twenty-three-year career as a prosecutor, including four terms as Solicitor for the Third Judicial Circuit from 1983 to 1998. Clients can reach the office at 803-418-0800. That prosecutorial background gives Kolb a detailed understanding of how the state approaches criminal cases, insight he now applies on behalf of the accused.
The firm handles criminal defense in both state and federal courts, including DUI and traffic matters, alongside a substantial personal injury and workers’ compensation practice covering auto and truck accidents and wrongful death claims, as well as probate matters. With over forty-six years in practice, Kolb has spent his career moving between the prosecution and defense sides of the courtroom, an experience that informs how the firm evaluates evidence, negotiates with the state, and prepares cases for trial when necessary.
Kolb’s standing in the profession is reflected in recognitions from the National Trial Lawyers as a Top 100 Trial Lawyer and from the National Academy of Criminal Defense Attorneys as a Top 10 attorney in South Carolina, along with a listing in Who’s Who in American Law. He holds memberships in the South Carolina Bar, the Sumter County Bar, the Federal Bar Association, the South Carolina Association for Justice, and the South Carolina Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, credentials that underscore his long-standing role in the state’s criminal defense and trial community.
