COLUMBIA, S.C., June 10, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- McWhirter, Bellinger & Associates is delighted to announce the hiring of attorney Kerri Rupert. She comes to the firm with a strong track record as a courtroom litigator.

Rupert will be practicing in all areas of personal injury law, following a successful career as an insurance defense attorney.

"Prior to joining McWhirter, Bellinger & Associates, I was defending claims brought against insurance companies ? but I often felt for the people on the other side. I always had a lot of empathy for them, for the losses they were experiencing," said Rupert.

The Columbia Business Monthly Awards recognized Rupert as one of the state's best insurance defense attorneys in 2018 and 2019, and she was chosen as part of the South Carolina Bar Association's Leadership Academy in 2016. She has also been published in SC Lawyer Magazine.
