Richard engages in general practice with an emphasis on civil trial practice (including medical malpractice and criminal law). Mr. Ness is a certified mediator and has served for twenty eight years as a special referee for the second judicial circuit presiding by court appointment over non-jury trials. He was the chair of the South Carolina Supreme Court Committee on Character and Fitness for nine years, (2004-2012), and remains an active member.
