In May 2025, Robert F. Goings, Attorney and Founder of Goings Law Firm, LLC, was honored by Super Lawyers and named to the Top 10 of all attorneys licensed in South Carolina. Of the Top 10 attorneys selected, Robert is the only attorney in Columbia and the Midlands of South Carolina that practices in the area of plaintiff’s personal injury law. He is one of just three other personal injury attorneys in South Carolina selected in the Top 10, alongside Mark C. Joye of the Joye Law Firm and David B. Yarborough of Yarborough Applegate, both of Charleston South Carolina.
This honor highlights his exceptional contributions to personal injury law, fearless advocacy, and unwavering commitment to serving injury victims of South Carolina. Previously, Goings has been recognized by Super Lawyers as a Rising Star from 2013- 2016, to Super Lawyers from 2017-2025, and in the Top 25 of South Carolina Super Lawyers from 2021-2025.
A Distinguished Honor
Super Lawyers recognizes the top attorneys nationwide, across a variety of practice areas and firm sizes, using a process of independent research and peer input. The lawyers selected include those with many years of experience in the profession. Goings’ recognition in this first-class group reinforces his reputation as an elite trial lawyer and advocate for justice.
Unwavering commitment to excellence and justice
Goings’ legal career is rooted in his passion for empowering individuals and families to secure the justice they deserve. A tireless advocate for those who need help when they are at their lowest, Goings opened his own firm in 2011 to champion those who needed a fierce advocate by their side.
“My drive to open this firm stemmed from using my skills and advocacy to help people navigate challenging times and to obtain the fairness they’re entitled to,” says Goings. He has earned a reputation for blending tenacity with genuine care in the courtroom, and views success in his work as a balance of unwavering commitment and heartfelt understanding. “Taking on insurance companies and corporations with enormous resources demands both a fierce will to succeed and the ability to connect deeply with your clients’ experiences,” he noted. But it takes a team, he’s quick to add: “I could not do any of what I do without the phenomenal team of other lawyers, paralegals, and support staff who practice alongside me at our firm,” he noted. “Our reviews speak for themselves, and reviewers always point out how great the entire team is here. We are a truly a team at Goings Law Firm, and I am so thankful for each and every one of the amazing people here.”
Solidifying his legacy
Goings’ recognition in the Super Lawyers Top 10 of all attorneys in South Carolina cements his and his firm’s leadership in the legal field in South Carolina. In the future, just as they have the past, Goings Law Firm will continue to serve their clients with an unwavering dedication to the clients, their stories, and their fights for justice. “This tremendous honor reflects not only upon me, but on the entire team at the Goings Law Firm, and I’ll say this one last thing—we’re only just getting started!” says Robert.
