Randy A. Skinner understands the stress of unemployment
and economic uncertainty. Twenty years ago, with  a new
wife  and  a  mountain  of  educational  debt,   he was
downsized  from  his  very first job during a recession.
Even with three degrees from  the  University  of South
Carolina (B.S., M.B.A., and J.D.),  his   employment
prospects looked bleak, so Mr. Skinner  took  the  only
route available to him: He started his own firm.

The Skinner Law Firm might not have been his first choice,
but it proved to be the right one. Since being admitted to
the South Carolina Bar in 1991, Mr. Skinner has become a
statewide leader in the bankruptcy field, with numerous
accolades and appointments, including:

• Certified Specialist in Bankruptcy Law by the South Carolina Supreme Court
• U.S. Bankruptcy Court Chapter 7 Panel Trustee since 2002
• Past chairman of the Bankruptcy and Debtor-Creditor Law Specialization Advisory Board
• Named to Best Lawyers in America
• Named to South Carolina Super Lawyers

Outside the office, Mr. Skinner enjoys travel, fishing,
and golf—though his golf game has failed to keep  pace
with his professional  accomplishments.  He  has  been
married more than 20  years  and  is  a devoted father
of two.
