Focusing onWhat
They Do Best
The Pflug Law Firm
Five years ago, Chaun Pflug,
Esq., left his job at one of the largest
law firms in South Carolina to open
his own practice in a 150 square-foot
office in I’On. Since The Pflug Law
Firm opened, it has grown to four
attorneys and two support staff, a larger
Mount Pleasant location and a second location in North
Charleston. Most importantly, he has
won the trust of his clients and the
Mount Pleasant community.
“One year after opening, we bought an office near
Shem Creek. Thankfully, there was more space, because
business picked up and
the firm grew,” Chaun
said. “I have represented
Palmetto Railways, a
division of the South
Carolina Department
of Commerce, on
some major economic
development projects,
and business has
continued to grow.”
Chaun and his wife,
Sarah Pflug, Esq., a partner in the firm, met while
attending law school in Manhattan. They returned to
Sarah’s hometown of Mount Pleasant and have been
practicing law in the area for 12 years.
The Pflug Law Firm’s four attorneys each have their
own practice within the firm, allowing them to focus on
certain areas of law.
“Of course we help each other on client matters, but
by focusing on what we each do best, we provide better
service for our clients,” Sarah Pflug said.
Chaun Pflug focuses on environmental, commercial
real estate and business law, while Sarah Pflug’s forte
is residential and commercial real estate transactions.
William Kleindienst, Esq., handles employment, business,
environmental and real estate matters, while Katherine
Dahlheim, Esq., provides criminal defense and also works
on residential and commercial real estate transactions.
The Pflugs are passionate about what they do and find
inspiration and fulfillment through their work.
“The projects I work on help create economic and
job opportunities,” Chaun Pflug elaborated. “My
work impacts the state, and to see my community and
my state benefit in many ways from the work I do is
tremendously rewarding.”
Sarah Pflug finds that building relationships and
connecting with her clients – as well as the lenders and
Realtors involved in the closing process – is what drives her.
“Whether I am working with a first-time buyer
or a seasoned client, I really enjoy helping people
through the entire
process from beginning
to end,” she said.
The two agree that
exceptional client service
is one of the reasons
The Pflug Law Firm was
chosen as the best by
Mount Pleasant Magazine’s
readers.
“In our profession, client
service is as critical as
providing excellent legal services,” Chaun Pflug explained.
“We try to make ourselves available as much as possible
seven days a week. Our clients have our cell phone
numbers and can reach us any time of the day.”
But the Pflugs also give credit to those they work with.
“We are not only thankful for the other attorneys who
work with us and our wonderful support staff but also for
our clients and the Realtors, lenders and many others in
the community we have developed relationships with over
the years,” Sarah Pflug said.
Most of all, The Pflug Law Firm credits its clients and
the community at large for the success it has found.
“Those are the people who make us who we are, and we
are thankful for that,” Chaun Pflug concluded.
