Charles K. Blackmon

Charles K. Blackmon is an attorney in Greensboro, North Carolina, whose practice combines business and corporate counsel with administrative, regulatory, and government affairs work. He advises companies, institutions, and their owners on the decisions that carry both legal and political consequence — a permit, a rule, an ownership transition, a negotiation with a public body.

His work is defined by two habits. The first is preparation: understanding the governing statute, the administrative record, and the constraints on the other side before positions are taken. The second is continuity: relationships with agency staff, local officials, and the professional community of the state that are maintained between matters rather than assembled during them.

Practice history

Earlier in his career Charles practiced with Tuggle Duggins P.A. in Greensboro, one of the Triad's established business firms, serving closely held companies, family enterprises, boards, and developers. In 2014, Business North Carolina named him to its Legal Elite list among the state's business lawyers — a peer-nominated recognition published annually by the magazine.

He now practices as C.K. Blackmon Law, advising business and institutional clients on corporate matters, contracts, administrative and regulatory proceedings, land use and development, entertainment matters, civil disputes, and government affairs.

Business experience

Charles's counsel is informed by direct business experience alongside legal practice. Owners frequently retain him precisely because the advice accounts for what a legal structure will mean operationally — for lenders, employees, customers, and family members — and not only for what it means on paper.

Community and civic involvement

A career built in the Piedmont Triad has meant sustained involvement in the civic institutions of the region: chambers of commerce, nonprofit and foundation boards, economic development bodies, and the local government processes through which communities make decisions about growth. That participation is a conviction as much as a credential — North Carolina business runs on reputation and long acquaintance.

Writing and speaking

Charles writes and speaks on regulation, negotiation, and government relations for business audiences, industry groups, and professional organizations. His published essays are collected in the publications archive.

Education and admission

Charles is licensed to practice law in the State of North Carolina and is a member of the North Carolina State Bar. He completed his undergraduate studies and law degree at North Carolina institutions; detailed education and admission information is available on request.
