Overview

Dakota Julius Derrick was born and raised in Conway, SC. He attended Furman University on a football scholarship and played quarterback for the Paladins. After Furman, Dakota attended the University of South Carolina School of Law. During his time there, Dakota helped revive the school's mock trial team, competing alongside fellow Derrick Law Firm attorney Taylor Hooven in several national competitions.

After graduating from the University of South Carolina with honors in 2016, Dakota served two years as a judicial law clerk for Justice John Cannon Few of the South Carolina Supreme Court.
