W. Kyle Dillard

Mr. Dillard is a Shareholder in Ogletree Deakins’ Greenville, South Carolina office.  While a major focus of Mr. Dillard’s practice is litigation, both in state and federal courts, he also devotes a significant portion of his time to counseling clients who seek to proactively identify best practices and develop legally sound policies and procedures.

Before joining Ogletree Deakins in late 2003, Mr. Dillard practiced with a local Greenville firm where he focused on design and construction litigation and insurance coverage analysis and disputes.  Since associating with Ogletree, Mr. Dillard has continued his construction and insurance practice as a complement to the wide array of employment and litigation work for which the firm is well known.  This experience enables Mr. Dillard to offer a multi-disciplinary approach to many of the problems for which his clients seek assistance.

A native of Seneca, South Carolina, where he graduated from high school as valedictorian, Mr. Dillard graduated with honors from Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina in 1995, where he double majored in History and Political Science.  He returned to Greenville to practice law in 2001 after graduating with honors from the University of South Carolina School of Law where he was a member of the Order of the Coif and served on the South Carolina Law Review and as a teaching assistant to Professor Robert L. Felix.
