How It Started

He started practicing law in 1987, beginning his journey in Jacksonville, NC and eventually moving to Winston-Salem, NC. In 1992 he moved his private practice to Elkin, NC and he and his staff have been serving this area ever since.

Charles has been married to his wife Maria since 1999, and they have three children. Although he stays quite busy running after his kids, he also enjoys reading, sports, and pulling for Wake Forest.
