About Christy

Christy Fargnoli built her career around South Carolina law. She earned a Bachelor of Science in political science from Newberry College in 2001. She later completed her Juris Doctor at Charleston School of Law in 2008.

She joined Clawson & Staubes, LLC as a lawyer in 2008, entering private practice soon after law school. Over the years she remained within firms connected to the Clawson name, moving to Clawson Fargnoli, LLC in 2017. That path led to her current association with Clawson Fargnoli & Utsey, LLC, where she works today.

Her professional life is rooted in the South Carolina legal community. She is licensed to practice in South Carolina and maintains active participation in the South Carolina Bar Association. She also belongs to the Charleston County and Berkeley County bar organizations. Those memberships reflect regular engagement with local court systems and practitioners across multiple jurisdictions within the state.

Fargnoli is also a member of the South Carolina Association for Justice. That affiliation places her among attorneys who take part in continuing education, trial practice discussions, and advocacy-related programming. Colleagues describe her as someone who stays involved in bar activities and uses those forums to stay current on procedural developments and courtroom practice.

Her work over time shows a steady presence in private law firms rather than a move into government or in-house roles. She has managed client matters through different firm structures and across changing team configurations. Her courtroom exposure and bar association ties give her practical familiarity with the mechanics of litigation and client representation in state courts.

Today she continues to represent clients through Clawson Fargnoli & Utsey, LLC. She handles matters for individuals and entities in South Carolina and remains active in the local legal community, balancing case work with ongoing professional engagement.
