James W. Clement

Jim Clement is a trial lawyer whose main practice areas include personal injury, business, and real estate litigation.  A proud graduate of Tulane University Law School, Jim honed his litigation skills during a two-year clerkship with a federal district judge in New Orleans, where he gained invaluable insights into the judicial process. He has tried cases to jury verdict and arbitration award, demonstrating his commitment to achieving favorable outcomes for his clients.

Before joining Walker Gressette & Linton, LLC, Jim spent nearly five years at a defense firm in Charleston, where he represented a diverse array of clients in litigation, including product manufacturers, restaurant owners, real estate developers, insurance companies, and various licensed professionals. Early in his career, Jim handled real estate acquisitions and eminent domain matters for the Virginia Department of Transportation. With his background as a former federal law clerk who has worked for insurance companies and condemning authorities in the past, Jim is uniquely positioned to advocate for individuals and businesses who have been wronged by others or whose property is being condemned.

Jim resides with his wife and three daughters in the Old Village neighborhood of Mount Pleasant. When he is not advocating for his clients, Jim enjoys spending time with his family, surfing on Isle of Palms, and boating around the beautiful waters of the Lowcountry.
