Joshua M. W. Salley

Associate

Joshua M. W. Salley is an associate in the firm’s Charleston office. Josh is a Husband, Father, and Litigator. He has extensive experience representing clients in complex civil litigation including governmental negligence, civil rights, medical malpractice, products liability, and toxic water/environmental justice. Josh works to innovate by taking his learned life experience and applying it to his client’s legal issues. Josh’s primary goal is to ensure that his client’s receive tailored strategies that fit their unique situation, rather than repeating tired strategies from an old playbook.

Josh received his Bachelor of Science in Environmental Policy, Institutions, and Behaviors with a concentration in United States policy from Rutgers University, and he received his law degree from the Charleston School of Law.

While in law school, Josh served as the President of the Student Bar Association, President of the Environmental Law Society, and was a member of both the Trial Advocacy and Moot Court boards. In 2019, Josh was recognized by the South Carolina Fellows of the American College of Trial Lawyers and received the Arthur Gasque Howe Trial Advocacy award. Josh is also a member of the Charleston School of Law Forensics Club, recognizing his demonstrated leadership, professionalism, public service and academic commitment. When Josh isn’t working to mitigate risk for his clients, or solving their problems, he can be found on the beach with his wife Bri and their two daughters, Effie and Farrah, or in the garage “hot-rodding” old BMWs.
