About Magalie
Magalie Arcure arrived at law partly by way of languages. She earned a Bachelor of Arts from Georgetown University in 2003, where she studied Spanish and Russian. She then completed her legal education at Charleston School of Law, receiving her J.D. in 2007. The combination of liberal arts and legal training shaped a practical approach to client work and to legal research.
Her professional record shows steady ties to the Charleston legal community. Arcure is licensed to practice in South Carolina and has been admitted to the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina since 2010. She joined Finkel Law Office LLC as an associate in 2010 and has maintained that association since. She is also a member of the Charleston County Bar Association, a membership she took up in 2011 and retains today.
At the firm she handles a range of legal matters that reach both state and federal forums. Her tasks have included preparing filings, drafting motions, managing discovery, and representing clients at hearings. She has worked on matters that require familiarity with procedural rules across jurisdictions, which has been a steady feature of her practice since her admission to the federal court in 2010.
Arcure’s day-to-day work involves client intake, case strategy, and courtroom appearances when cases move beyond negotiation. She spends time on factual investigation and on building files that support litigation and dispute resolution. Colleagues describe her work as thorough; she approaches evidence and procedure in a methodical way. Those qualities are practical for the kinds of matters she handles at the firm.
Outside of the office, Arcure’s ongoing membership in the Charleston County Bar Association keeps her connected to local professional networks. That involvement has given her access to continuing legal education and to local practitioners across specialties. Her bilingual undergraduate studies also inform her interactions with clients who speak Spanish or Russian, and she draws on that background in client communications when appropriate.
Arcure’s career path is straightforward: a Georgetown undergraduate degree in languages, a law degree from Charleston School of Law in 2007, licensure in South Carolina and admission to the federal district court in 2010, and an associate role at Finkel Law Office LLC since 2010. She currently practices at Finkel Law Office LLC and focuses on litigation and client advocacy in South Carolina courts.
