E. Bart Daniel, a former top federal prosecutor in South Carolina, has closed up his own solo shop in Charleston to join Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough as a litigation partner and co-head of its white-collar crime and government investigations group, the firm said Wednesday.

“Nelson Mullins people are the kind of people with whom I would want to be associated,” said Daniel, who will split his time between the Am Law 100 firm’s offices in Charleston and Columbia, South Carolina. “It’s just a good fit for me and I think hopefully, it’s going to be a good fit for the firm too.”
