Chris Brown

Dedicated, Compassionate & Experienced Attorney in Greenville, SC

A native of Greenville, Chris has been an integral part of the Upstate legal community for more than twenty-five years. He is a graduate of Furman University and the Mercer University Walter F. George School of Law in Macon, Georgia.

Chris has extensive experience in real estate and is on the approved attorney list of most Upstate lending institutions. In addition, his practice concentrates on drafting wills and assisting clients with estate planning and probate law. A member of the South Carolina Bar Association and Georgia State Bar Association, Chris is admitted to practice in all the courts of the states of South Carolina and Georgia.

Blair Cato’s philosophy and vision align perfectly with his own, so when the opportunity to manage the firm’s Greenville office arose, Chris knew it would be a great fit for both parties. He now serves Blair Cato clients with the same loyalty, dedication, and caring that he has become known for throughout the Upstate.

Furman Paladin & Servant at Heart

Having grown up attending Furman University athletic events, there was no doubt in Chris’s mind that he would one day be a Furman Paladin. A football and basketball fan, Chris’s alumni involvement also includes serving as the past president of the Furman Alumni Association Board of Directors, a former Paladin Club board member, and being selected as the Student Organization Advisor of the year in 2001.

He continues to work with Sigma Chi, not only serving as a Furman University chapter alumni advisor for over twenty years but also volunteering for roles at the international level. He is past chairman of the Sigma Chi International Balfour Leadership Training Workshop, an annual conference attended by 1500 undergraduate students, and is currently a member of the Horizons Operating Board, which organizes and oversees a personal leadership development program for 250 undergraduate students in Snowbird, Utah each summer.

An avid supporter of the arts, Chris can often be found attending local theatre productions, art shows, and fundraisers.
