Where we practice
One office. Ten courthouses' worth of ground.
Estate law is local in ways that surprise people — each Circuit Court clerk has a counter, each Commissioner of Accounts has preferences, and each community has its own version of the family land. These are ours.
Richmond
City of RichmondOur office is on West Franklin Street, a short walk from Monument Avenue, and the probate division at the John Marshall Courts Building knows our paperwork on sight.

Henrico CountyMore of our clients live in Henrico than anywhere else, from the brick colonials off Libbie and Grove to Lakeside and the East End. Estates qualify at the Circuit Court on Parham Road.

Chesterfield CountySouth of the James, planned communities and old family land in equal measure: Brandermill and Woodlake households, and Route 10 acreage that has been meaning to get surveyed since the Eisenhower administration.
Planning in ChesterfieldMidlothian
Chesterfield CountyCoal country before it was cul-de-sac country, and the deeds remember. Most Midlothian work is the modern kind, though: dual-income households with good incomes, better retirement accounts, and no documents at all.

Henrico CountyInnsbrook professionals, Capital One and Dominion retirees, engineers with stock-plan statements they have never quite decoded. Glen Allen clients arrive organized and want the mechanics explained.

Henrico CountyFirst-generation wealth west of Route 288: physicians, dual-career couples, and business owners whose balance sheets outran their paperwork somewhere around 2015. We put the paperwork back in front.

Hanover CountyThree-generation planning: grandparents on the family land off Cold Harbor Road, their children in Milestone or Kings Charter, and everyone finally in one room deciding what happens to the back forty acres.

Chesterfield CountyThe Victorian cottages off Buford Road hold some of the longest-tenured homeowners in the metro. Planning here is about the house: step-up strategy, TOD deeds, and the delicate mathematics of one house among three children.

Powhatan CountyHorse farms off Route 13, timber acreage, and clients who measure wealth in fence line. Farm estates fail by partition suit; preventing that outcome is specific, unglamorous drafting, and we do it often.
Planning in PowhatanHanover
Hanover CountyFrom Ashland's railroad-town front porches to the farm country around Montpelier and Beaverdam: a county where clients still bring pound cake to signing meetings, and where the courthouse green makes qualification feel properly ceremonial.
