Firm Overview:
Wyche has practiced law and served the community for more than 99 years. In that time, Wyche has participated in landmark litigation, served as counsel on cutting-edge transactions and provided community leadership that has helped shape and drive the region’s growth and success.
Wyche lawyers are handpicked, one by one, to join the firm because each has the skills and accomplishments to be part of the firm’s effort to provide unmatched service to its clients. Wyche attorneys have law degrees from Harvard, Yale, the University of Virginia, Duke and other leading law schools, where many served on law review. Collectively, the firm’s attorneys have earned a bounty of academic honors. Many have held clerkships in the United States District Courts, Courts of Appeals or the United States Supreme Court. The firm recognizes, however, that such distinctions alone are not enough to be successful in the practice of law; Wyche attorneys have the real-world experience and wisdom that can be acquired only through years of practice.
Wyche is the South Carolina member of Lex Mundi, the world’s leading association of independent law firms.

Main Areas of Practice:

Commercial Real Estate:
The real estate practice includes commercial development, asset-based lending purchases and sales, construction contracts, leases and fee-in-lieu-of-taxes transactions. Through its subsidiary, Camperdown Title Services, Inc., the firm provides title insurance services and acts as agent for four major title insurance companies.

Wyche regularly assists regional, national and multinational companies in investigating, structuring, and consummating sophisticated transactions. Wyche’s corporate/M&A practice includes leveraged buyouts, recapitalizations, public and private offerings, securities compliance, debt refinancings and mergers and acquisitions. These transactions range from relatively small transactions to billion-dollar deals.
Employment:
Wyche attorneys handle employment litigation in federal and state courts. They have successfully argued a complex ERISA case on behalf of a client before the United States Supreme Court; persuaded the South Carolina Court of Appeals to affirm summary judgment for a client in an employee handbook case; and obtained favorable interpretations of the South Carolina Payment of Wages Act in the South Carolina Supreme Court. Members of the practice also provide general counseling for human resources personnel and management.
