Brent P. Stewart
“I understand that this is more than just a case to my clients; it is their life and their family’s livelihood, and I take that very seriously.”
For attorney Brent Stewart, practicing law isn’t just about winning a case. It’s about helping people when they need it most. When an injury puts someone’s life and livelihood in jeopardy, Brent is intent on assisting them to pick up the pieces.
With 30 years of legal experience, Brent is focused on providing comprehensive and compassionate services to everyone who walks through his doors. That means a personalized, one-on-one representation that truly puts clients first.
Brent understands the difficulties that clients can face in the aftermath of an accident. They’ve often worked hard to get insurance companies to understand their needs, with little success. Brent refuses to see their efforts wasted or watch them be bullied into silence. He jumps in and marshals all his legal resources to fight for what’s right.
Many clients seem surprised that Brent answers their calls personally, meets with them face-to-face frequently and is genuinely invested in their well-being and success. That reflects the family atmosphere the legal team at Stewart Law Offices has built over the years.
Brent’s commitment to serving clients has led to significant successes during his legal career. His most notable achievement is earning lifetime membership to the Million Dollar Advocates Forum* and the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum.
These honors are secured only by attorneys who have won million and multi-million-dollar verdicts, settlements, and awards on behalf of their clients. Less than 1 percent of trial lawyers nationwide earn membership to the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum*.
Brent has also been awarded the AV Preeminent® Rating from Martindale-Hubbell®, the premier legal resource for peer ratings and reviews. Only 10 percent of all attorneys achieve this rating, recognizing them for professional excellence and high ethical standards.
With this track record of success, it’s easy to see why clients choose Brent to represent their interests in settlement talks and in the courtroom.

More About Brent
Brent, the son of a schoolteacher and counselor, grew up in Wheeling, West Virginia. His family instilled in him the value of an education and hard work from an early age.
As a young man, Brent mowed lawns for money. One of his clients was an attorney, and Brent spent time asking questions about the job. From that point on, Brent knew he wanted to be a lawyer.
Brent graduated from Ohio State University in 1986 with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. He completed his law degree at West Virginia University School of Law three years later.
His early career began in his hometown of Wheeling at the Bordas and Bordas law firm. Brent then traveled overseas to work as the Attorney General for the U.S. Pacific Island Territory of Guam. Two years later, Brent returned stateside to practice law in Charleston, S.C. In 1995, he opened Stewart Law Office’s first location in Rock Hill.
Since then, the firm has expanded to serve clients in Columbia, Spartanburg, Beaufort, and Charlotte, N.C. No matter the location, clients know they can find an advocate they trust at Stewart Law Offices.
Brent’s employees admire him, praising his ability to earn and deserve the trust of his clients and co-workers. He treats them all like family, and their health and happiness are always top priorities.
Brent will proudly tell you that his wife and children are a huge motivation for his success. Just like the attorney who inspired him when he was a young kid cutting grass, Brent hopes to set an example for future generations about the importance of fairness, empathy, justice, and dedication.
Brent will be the first to tell you that he hopes you never need his number, but if you do, Stewart Law Offices will fight hard for you during such a stressful time.
