About

In addition to practicing law, I was elected to serve on the Board of Governors for the  South Carolina association of Justice ("SCAJ").  I've also taught Criminal Law and Evidence at one of the local colleges.  Outside of work, my interests include hunting, fishing, hiking, camping and just about anything outdoors. I played tennis in college, climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, competed in the Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon several times, and backpacked into some of the most rugged and remote terrain in the mountains of Idaho to bowhunt elk.  I also enjoy coaching my son's basketball and lacrosse team.  In the summer you will usually find me with my wife and son at the beach or out in the boat.  I work to live, not live to work!

Mr. Riesen came very highly recommended. After our first consultation he was able to get my fines, and charge completely dropped after his impressive communication skills with city solicitor. Mr. Riesen made me feel so much better from our first conversation. He is literally the definition of a true gentleman and a very hard worker. I was very nervous and Mr. Riesen insisted I had nothing to worry about, and best of all I never had to step one foot in the courtroom. I feel totally blessed to have met Mr. Riesen and truly feel I have made a friend for life. I would highly recommend him with total confidence he would be the best man for the job.

My mother was involved in an automobile accident and prior to Mr. Riesen's involvement, the insurance company was attempting to place the blame on her. Mr. Riesen was able to get them to accept liability and pay the full policy limits as well as property damage. He was extremely responsive throughout the process and I would highly recommend him.

After the horrible experience with the attorney i hired at first, Trip was what i had originally envisioned as an attorney doing his job....Professional, courteous,and timely in communicating. Not having to constantly call him for information, was great. The matter was resolved quickly,and i would highly reccomend this attorney to anyone.

From my initial call to Trip, he sounded confident. He came highly recommended. Although he made no guarantees, I felt confident he would work hard on my case to get the best results, and perserve my rights.

Mr. Riesen was excellent in the defense of my case. I was accused of assualt and battery (wrongfully). Mr. Riesen worked immediately to obtain facts gather witness statements and even obtain video evidence that could potentially clear me of the charge. In addition to working relentlessly to gain all the facts he immediately started contacting the prosecutors office and working to get the charges dropped. He was able to get the charges dropped completely at the preliminary hearing with all the evidence obtained up front. Without his immediate attention to this case it could have likely dragged on for some time. If you are looking for a lawyer that will work hard and get immediate results then look no further.

It is so important to have the right attorney represent your family. I found Trip Riesen to be an experienced attorney with a track record of taking on complex issues and using common sense and good judgement to find solutions to difficult legal issues. He is honest, reasonable, and available. I can depend on him calling me back and having answers to my concerns. I was able to sleep at night knowing he could do the job and work things out.
