David Beale developed a passion for making people’s lives better from an early age. In second grade, his teacher sent home a report card that read, “David is a natural born peacemaker.” As a lawyer, David brings that same mindset to pursuing compensation and peace of mind for people suffering from serious injuries.
He received his law degree from Mercer Law School and his bachelor’s degree from the University of South Carolina. After completing his undergraduate degree, he joined the Peace Corps, where he lived and worked in Romania for two of the most meaningful years of his life.
David was an assistant district attorney in Georgia, where he fought for victims of crimes and served as the lead attorney in Rockdale County’s DUI and Drug Treatment courts. In 2017, he returned home to South Carolina, where he worked for an insurance defense firm. He then joined the Samuels Reynolds Law Firm and is licensed to practice in all courts in South Carolina as well as the United States District Court. He is also licensed to practice in Georgia. David is an experienced trial attorney and has tried numerous cases before juries and the South Carolina Workers’ Compensation Commission.
Born and raised in Columbia, South Carolina, David has volunteered for numerous charity organizations throughout the state. The oldest sibling of five, he maintains close relationships with his family and friends. When he’s not working you can find David cheering on the Gamecocks, enjoying the South Carolina coast, swinging a golf club, or playing live music somewhere for crowds.
