Frederick Richard Hugh Lavery (13 February 1898 – 12 January 1971) was an Australian trade unionist and politician who was a Labor Party member of the Legislative Council of Western Australia from 1952 to 1971.
Lavery entered parliament at the 1952 Legislative Council election, replacing the retiring Edmund Gray in West Province.
He was re-elected in 1958, and at the 1965 state election transferred to the new South Metropolitan Province, following a redistribution.
Lavery died in office in January 1971, at St John of God Subiaco Hospital.
He was widowed in 1958, and remarried in 1966 to Ruby Hutchison, who was also a member of the Legislative Council.
