Since 1991 when an established Charleston firm led by Neil C. Robinson Jr. merged with Nexsen Pruet, the firm has proudly cultivated valuable relationships and a significant presence in the low country. Nexsen Pruet has clients in industries such as energy, health care, and pharmaceuticals. Clients include Boeing, for which it negotiated an incentive package with the South Carolina legislature; gas station and convenience store chain Sheetz; Karshaw Health; and the Charlotte Regional Realtor Association. Nexsen Pruet lobbyists in South Carolina represent Google, Boeing, General Motors, and several health industry trade groups, according to filings reviewed by Sludge. Until 2013, Nexsen Pruet was a registered federal lobbyist for health care and real estate firms. The firm also launched NP Strategy, a public relations shop.
