Bob provided great advise that set our new business on the right track to success. His expertise in franchise business law, corporate governance, and commercial leases and loans made my job that much easier. I highly recommend Bob and his firm. In fact, Bob and I are already working together to get my second location up and running!

I am a litigation attorney with 22 years of experience and manage 26 attorneys. When my child had a trust and estates dispute, I put my daughter's future in Kimberley Murphy's capable hands. I will forever be grateful to her. Ms. Murphy's knowledge of the law, responsiveness, cost-effective management of litigation, and tenacity served my daughter well. There is no better trusts and estates attorney in Virginia!
