We focus on Virginia real estate law: property disputes, easements, boundary issues, title defects, HOA matters, closings, estate planning, and related contract work. We don’t handle personal injury, criminal defense, or domestic relations.

Virginia doesn’t require it, but you should have one. An attorney reviews the title, catches problems the title company might miss, and protects your interests at the closing table. The cost is modest compared to the risk.

Contact us for current consultation fees. We’ll discuss your situation, explain your options, and give you a straightforward assessment of your case.

We serve clients statewide from offices in Fairfax, Richmond, and Urbanna. We regularly appear in circuit courts across Northern Virginia, Central Virginia, and the Middle Peninsula.

Riparian law governs the rights of waterfront property owners. In Virginia, this includes pier permits, shoreline access, water use rights, and disputes over shared waterfront areas. It’s a niche area that most attorneys don’t touch. We handle it routinely.

It depends on the matter. Transactions and estate planning are typically flat-fee. Litigation is usually hourly. We’ll discuss fees upfront during your consultation so there are no surprises.

Any documents related to your matter: contracts, deeds, survey plats, correspondence, HOA documents, or court papers. The more we see up front, the better we can advise you.

Our attorneys are licensed in Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia. For matters outside Virginia and the District of Columbia, we can often recommend qualified counsel through our referral network.

It varies. A straightforward contract dispute might resolve in months. A complex easement or title case can take a year or more. We’ll give you a realistic timeline at the outset.

Direct attorney access. Close to five decades of focused experience. No overhead bloat. You get senior attorneys who know your case, not associates learning on the job. And our rates reflect the efficiency of a small firm, not the billing targets of larger ones.
