their goals, and that’s what I try to bring to each interaction. I want to be fully engaged with the client,” Brown said. “I’m also a mother of two, so I balance those demands with work.”

As the founders of Butler & College, LLC, Ryan Butler and Andrew College combined their legal expertise and created a vastly successful firm, with eight locations throughout the Lowcountry, offering estate planning and real estate related legal services.

While it may be their name on the sign, you don’t need to be around the leading ladies of the law firm for too long to know these are the ladies to call.

“We call it the ‘firmily’,” said Ashley Brown, an equity partner in the firm and managing attorney for the Bluffton and Myrtle Beach offices. Part family, part firm. And the ladies are wholeheartedly devoted to both.

“Several of us all have Boykins (the state dog), and there are usually two of them in the West Ashley office on any given day,” added Frances Reindollar, equity partner. Reindollar and Sarah Smith are both primarily stationed in the West Ashley office where Reindollar practices residential real estate for both North Carolina and South Carolina. Smith splits her time among Butler & College’s offices up the coast, leading the estate planning division for the greater Charleston area.

For those of us in the southern part of the 843 area code, Natalia Chandler serves as the welcoming face of the Bluffton office.

Practicing residential real estate and family law, Chandler hails from Brooklyn and graduated from the University at Albany, double majoring in criminal justice and sociology. She then attended and graduated from Albany Law School with her Juris Doctor.

“I have a litigation background, and that helps with a variety of situations when working with real estate law,” Chandler said. “Every transaction is different, and there are those that can get a little emotional or contentious. I’m better able to walk clients through that because of that experience.”

Across the Lowcountry, and right here in Bluffton, the women of Butler & College are here for you.
