Charlotte is a powerhouse of finance, energy, and innovation—home to a business community that’s both globally connected and locally driven. Michael Best’s office in the Queen City reflects that dual focus. We work alongside leading companies, emerging ventures, and civic organizations to support growth, investment, and leadership across the region.

Our team is embedded in the community, contributing through board service, local partnerships, and strategic counsel. Whether advising on complex transactions or supporting regional initiatives, we bring national resources and local insight to help Charlotte’s businesses thrive.

Best Efforts

Our Charlotte office volunteered with Freedom School Partners for the Great Day of D.E.A.R. (Drop Everything and Read) as part of our 2025 Best Efforts community engagement firmwide initiative. Our volunteers spent time reading with k-8 students, empowering them through learning to help close the literacy gap, one book at a time.

Connecting Face-to-Face

At our Charlotte open house event, attorneys spent valuable time connecting with new clients and strengthening relationships with old friends.

Charlotte Open House

Lawyers at our Charlotte office know how valuable it is to have face-to-face time with our clients. That’s why we were so excited to host our very first open house in our newly renovated Charlotte office this year.

“Charlotte is a city of momentum, and at Michael Best, we’re here to match it. We treat every client like a partner, connect across industries, and serve the region with the energy it deserves.”
