Austin Backus | Charlotte Business Lawyer

Austin practices commercial litigation, construction law, and HOA law here at Redding Jones. He holds a Juris Doctorate from the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill School of Law, a bachelor’s degree in Public Relations from the University of Alabama, and is a licensed member of the North Carolina State Bar and federal court for the Western District of North Carolina.  Raised in a long line of construction workers, Austin grew up around the industry and became a lawyer to represent those hard-working people who build our communities from the ground up.

Austin serves his community as a member of the Board of Directors for the Mecklenburg Bar Foundation, Chair of the Mecklenburg County Bar Young Lawyers’ Division Education Committee, and a member of the Mecklenburg County Bar CLE Committee. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Austin worked with the Justice Access Initiative to help North Carolina courts create a comprehensive plan to resume jury trials and ensure justice is available for all those who seek it.

Austin is an Eagle Scout and a member of the NC Lawyers Weekly Rising Stars Class of 2021, a program that recognizes lawyers who have been out of law school 10 years or less and have already made a strong impact in the legal community.

When he is not fighting for his clients, Austin enjoys watching college football (Roll Tide!) and spending time with his golden retrievers.
