Margaret Hale joined Crown Hill in 2001 and became managing partner in 2016. She works from Charleston. Her practice is the overlap between a company and the people who own it: the sale, the shareholder agreement, and the succession documents that have to agree with each other.

Before joining the firm she practiced with a Charleston business firm and clerked for a South Carolina circuit judge. Clients are typically families with an operating company and property in one or both of the states where Crown Hill has offices.
