About Chris

Chris is a native of Conway and decided to return to the Grand Strand after law school to assist his community in legal matters.

After graduating from Coastal Carolina University with a Bachelor of Science in Economics, Chris received his law degree from the University of South Carolina School of Law. Chris’s desire to be a trial lawyer and litigator developed in law school, after he won both a CALI award (the highest grade in the class) in Trial Advocacy and an award for best oral argument in Legal Research and Writing. After law school, Chris served as a judicial law clerk to the Honorable William H. Seals, Jr. of the South Carolina Circuit Court. Before founding Kinon Law Firm, Chris practiced at a Myrtle Beach personal injury law firm, where he gained valuable litigation, negotiation, and trial experience. Chris is admitted to practice in all state and federal courts in South Carolina.

Chris was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated to our case. Also provided excellent communication throughout the entire process, keeping us informed and answering all our questions promptly. Trustworthy, compassionate, and results-driven, Chris truly exceeded our expectations.

Reva H.

“Following a bad auto accident, my initial legal consultation and engagement was with a highly advertised law firm. This was the first time needing a Pl Attorney and my decision making was influenced by advertising. With my selection I quickly found out that I was a numbered transaction to the firm. They were not looking for my best possible outcome, they were looking for volume transactions.

To correct my situation, I went to an attorney I know and asked for a recommendation. He referred me to a very solid local firm and that is how I met Chris Kinon.

Chris Kinon is authentic, shoots straight, sets realistic expectations, and cares about his clients. His execution throughout the process was flawless, and the results he delivered far exceeded my expectations. He moved mountains to
make things happen and never took no for an answer.

I not only whole-heartedly recommend Chris and his firm Kinon Law Firm, I have referred someone to him. My referral was in a situation similar to mine and she was only getting sparse responses from her representation. She took my recommendation, visited Chris, and explained what had happened to her. She was impressed and immediately signed on for representation with Chris. The good news for her, Chris got results within sixty days.

Life sometimes presents you with challenges. If you find yourself with one of life’s challenges and need representation, I highly recommend you talk to Chris and consider working with Kinon Law Firm. You will never have to wonder and
you will get the best possible outcome for your case.”
