Background
Few lawyers have Danny White's breadth and depth of
experience. He is listed among the Best Lawyers in America in five categories-products liability, commercial litigation, railroad law, mass tort litigation
and personal injury litigation - a rare feat by any measure.
White was lead counsel in the only case classified for Multi-District
Litigation in South Carolina and lead counsel in the largest
non-natural disaster in South Carolina history. His record of service
to the legal profession is equally stellar. He served as President of
the South Carolina Bar in 2005-2006, and was Chair of the South
Carolina Bar House of Delegates from 2000-2002. White is a member of
the National Association of Railroad Trial Counsel, the International
Association of Defense Counsel, the Association of Defense Trial
Attorneys, and the American Academy of Trial Counsel. A native of
Charlotte, North Carolina, White is a graduate of Davidson College and
the University of South Carolina School of Law.
