Biography

Charles Nicholas "Nick" Lavery, a South Carolina native, has lived and worked in Clemson for over 20 years, building a distinguished legal career. He began his profession as an Assistant Solicitor, serving in the 13th Judicial Circuit (Greenville and Pickens Counties) and the 10th Judicial Circuit (Anderson and Oconee Counties). In this role, Nick prosecuted a variety of cases, ranging from murder to drug offenses and traffic violations, gaining extensive courtroom experience.

Nick graduated from Furman University, Suffolk University School of Law, and Mississippi College School of Law. In 2002, he joined Olson, Smith, Jordan, and Cox, P.A., working primarily in the Clemson office.
