Executive Assistant

Leanna A. Whitaker is the executive assistant to Patrick M. Killen, the litigation managing partner. Her professional portfolio includes a variety of fields: hospitality, training, and development, property management, and, most recently, our general practice. Leanna graduated from the University of South Carolina, Columbia with a bachelor’s degree in Criminology & Criminal Justice. She joined our firm in March of 2021 and has since dedicated her professional time to rounding out our litigation department. While her focus is personal injury, Leanna assists Patrick in his day-to-day duties such as client intake, court coordination, file management and general litigation efforts. Leanna uses her organization and problem-solving skills to ensure case files are active and clients are well-informed.

When not spending time with her husband and their two boys, she enjoys visiting family and friends, reading, listening to music, and painting.
