I’m needing to change my 5yrs last name and from what I understand I’ll need a lawyer. I’m looking for a lawyer that isn’t going to charge an arm and a leg to do this progress. Any suggestions on a lawyer that’s reasonably priced between the Greenville/pickens area???

You don’t need a lawyer. You’ll just have to fill out the paperwork and petition family court yourself and pay filing fees

A lawyer is not necessary. Here's info for Pickens County:
The form is under "Adult Name Change."

Since no lawyer is needed, I would recommend trying it without one before engaging a lawyer.
