Meet Bruce Miller

Bruce Miller was raised across the river from Charleston, in the Old Village of Mount Pleasant, where he graduated from Moultrie High School. After attending the University of South Carolina, he returned to Charleston, where he graduated from the College of Charleston. Following college, he gained four years of experience as a personal injury field adjuster for one of the largest, national insurance companies. In 1984, he earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Memphis Law School, where he was elected to serve as Editor-in-Chief of the University of Memphis Law Review. This position is often considered the highest honor a student can achieve during law school.

After graduation, Bruce Miller returned home to Charleston to begin his legal career with Barnwell Whaley Patterson & Helms. For 15 years, Miller gained valuable trial experience in a wide variety of cases in both state and federal courts. He also briefed and argued cases before the Supreme Court of South Carolina; the South Carolina Court of Appeals; and the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. In 1988, he was one of the two attorneys who defended The Citadel and its athletic trainer, Andy Clawson, in the Marc Buoniconti v. The Citadel trial, which gained national attention. In 1999, Miller was asked to be a member of the regional law firm of Moore & Van Allen, concentrating on employment law. In 2002, he became a Certified Specialist in Employment & Labor Law by the Supreme Court of South Carolina. He has held this certification continuously since that date.

In his free time, Bruce Miller enjoys spending time with his family and friends. He also enjoys exercising, the outdoors, and being from Charleston, anything related to the water.
