Ben Traywick practices law in his hometown of Charleston, South Carolina and has tried cases in courts across South Carolina, representing clients from all over the country who have made South Carolina their home. A straight-shooting, workaholic lawyer who tells it like it is, Ben thrives under the pressure that comes with representing clients who put their trust in the firm at critical moments in their lives, a responsibility he takes very seriously.
Ben spent the first seven years of his career representing the trucking, construction and insurance industries which gives him an intimate familiarity with these industries, who are now his and his client's adversaries. Active in his community, Ben has served his church on its vestry and as Senior Warden, his town on its Historical Commission, his colleagues in the South Carolina Bar's House of Delegates and his neighborhood association as president and general counsel. He is an adjunct professor in the Clemson/College of Charleston Masters in Historic Preservation Program, and has given talks at numerous South Carolina Association for Justice and South Carolina Bar events.
