MGC LLC is a law firm that has built its operations around legal technology, including secure Generative AI tools designed to drive efficiency and client service. The firm treats technology as core to its practice: lawyers and staff describe themselves as innovators in the insurance industry, and technical work centres on generative AI, secure AI tooling, and efficiency-driven legal operations.
Founded in 1995 in Columbia, South Carolina by Hugh McAngus, Rusty Goudelock and Jay Courie, MGC serves the insurance industry, its insureds and self-insured entities. Its model is metrics-driven, emphasising results rather than billable hours. The firm employs nearly 800 people, including 330 attorneys, across 11 states.
The stated culture rests on communication, candour, camaraderie, selflessness and compassion, in a casual yet professional environment that aims to retain a small-firm feel despite growth. Teams are diverse and distributed across a large geographic footprint, and the firm reports providing employees with the tools needed for professional success while valuing diversity of experience, thought and background.
