Jason Mikell is a Charleston native and deeply rooted in the legal community. Since law school, he has spent his entire professional career in the Lowcountry. Mr. Mikell has extensive experience in every stage of the criminal process. He has represented thousands of individuals accused of criminal offenses, and his effectiveness as a trial lawyer is underscored by the fact that numerous clients who contested criminal charges have received “not guilty” verdicts at trial.
Along with his long and successful trial record, he continues to earn a reputation as a fierce defender of legal rights. Mr. Mikell recognizes that any conviction—even one for a relatively minor offense—can be devastating to someone’s personal life, career and emotional well-being. Mr. Mikell founded the firm on the belief that anyone accused of a crime must be afforded every protection under the constitution, and every client deserves nothing less than zealous advocacy by a dedicated lawyer.
Mr. Mikell represents clients in need of consultation, under investigation, or faced with a variety of criminal offenses. Due to the increase in prosecutions of (DUI) Driving Under the Influence, he has devoted considerable resources to the defense of these cases. Mr. Mikell continually researches the latest developments, so that along with thorough case analysis, he can always construct the legal approach best suited to address the case in hand. He understands that many cases are won or lost before the parties and their lawyers even enter a courtroom, which is why he puts painstaking preparation into each and every case, leaving no aspect of your case to chance.
