A History of Securing Multi-Million Dollar Results
James comes from a long line of South Carolina attorneys. As a third-generation trial lawyer, he grew up watching how legal support can change lives. He earned his law degree, cum laude, from the Charleston School of Law in 2008. Before co-founding Evans Moore, LLC, James clerked for a state circuit court judge and practiced with regional injury law firms, gaining deep knowledge of the court system from the inside.
Over his career, James has won more than $200 million in verdicts and settlements for his clients. He defends the rights of people hurt by car accidents, truck collisions, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, and civil rights violations. National media outlets frequently cover his cases because he holds powerful institutions accountable when they cause harm.
James approaches every case with a deep commitment to win justice for families. Some of his most notable courtroom victories include a $97,500,000 wrongful death verdict against the Town of Cottageville, a $10,000,000 jury award for severe jail medical neglect, and a $5,000,000 verdict for hospital negligence. He also secured a $2,001,000 jury verdict for civil rights claims involving police sexual misconduct. These results represent real people who received the financial support they needed to rebuild their lives.
