IN MEMORIUM

ABOUT J. TERRY LAWS

Before establishing his own law firm in 1989, Terry Laws practiced at four firms after being admitted to practice law in 1977. Each firm was successively merged with larger firms; the last of these was the largest firm in the state and one of the largest in the region.
For over 35 years, J. Terry Laws, Attorney, LLC, now doing business as Laws & Laws, has been a well-respected boutique firm practicing residential and commercial real estate and business law across South Carolina.

Terry was known as “an attorney who solves the hard problems.” He was considered a deal maker and facilitator, treating his clients fairly and honorably, all skills he honed over 44 years of law practice.

Laws & Laws continues to treat clients fairly and honorably. In Terry’s words, “Your work is important to us. It’s not one small item in an assembly line. Why? Because we want to see you tomorrow and next month and next year, whenever you need an attorney.” Courtnay and the Laws & Laws staff strive to honor Terry’s words and legacy.

J. Terry Laws was admitted to practice before all courts in South Carolina, in the United States District Court for South Carolina, the United States Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the United States Supreme Court. He has been listed in Marquis’ Who’s Who in American Law. He was a cherished father and husband and is loved and remembered by many who knew him.

The firm of Laws and Laws ceased operations as of December 31, 2025, and is now closed. We would like to express our gratitude for the many wonderful clients who trusted our firm with their legal matters for over 35 years.
