Ann Frances Gillooly is a lawyer practicing commercial law, international law, litigation and 6 other areas of law. Ann received a B.S. degree from East Carolina University in 1980, and has been licensed for 43 years. Ann practices in McLean, VA.
Ann helped me successfully file and win a judgment against a company that owed me money, and collect too! That is the rare part, actually getting the money you sue for, but Anne was diligent, knowledgeable, and got the job done. And working with her was always a pleasure. I would work with Ann again, and recommend her to anyone. Even for me, as a little client, with a little judgment, she took the time and worked with me all the way to winning. I would want her in my corner for any legal matter
I hired Ann for several legal matters for my business because of (1) Her expertise across multiple areas of law (business, contract, litigation, real estate transaction); and (2) She was such a 'fluid thinker' who logically organized and executed legal strategies that helped me tremendously. I used her for business law (especially negotiating operating agreements and a complex business structure), real property (lease contracts), conflict resolution and intellectual property issues .
Ann handled a dispute with several financial institutions over the terms of a trust. It was messy and complicated and involved multiple parties and jurisdictions. She was efficient, thorough, and did an outstanding job. I highly recommend her.
Ann has been my business lawyer for over 14 years and has represented my tech company in civil as well as regulatory litigation with great success. She serves as our outside general counsel and is accessible, efficient and keeps our budget and business goals in mind at all times. Regardless of the subject matter, she has keen insight and knowledge of the applicable law. Her strategy advice is always spot on and she has negotiated and drafted many types of contracts for us related to sales and li
When it comes to matters as serious as drafting ownership agreement contracts that were reviewed to the last detail, I couldn't imagine having anyone else in my corner. Ann presented me the condensed summary of the options and her recommendations. It was very consultative and always backed up with facts to consider. Honesty was a word that came to mind often. She had such a high-level of care throughout the entire process, while still putting my priorities first. The best.
Ann worked very hard for me as I ended up suing a contractor. She knew the law which resulted in her obtaining an extra "fine" on one of the defendants, researching the argument while on a break. She was always honest and forthright and through her dogged determination, she won for me. It took a while to collect, but she never gave up on that either and I did collect my money. I can't recommend Ann enough and will be using her again.
Ann was my counsel for a surprise deposition and was incredibly responsive to help on only a couple days notice. She was amazingly informative and walked me through the entire process to ease my stress and have good results. I would highly recommend her to my own friends and family. Her poise and experience speak for themselves with a very impressive resume and demeanor. She’s the one you want in your corner!
Ann is very responsive, and grasped my complicated situation quickly and was very trustworthy. She understood what was best for my business and made those recommendations. I was amazed at her legal strategy and was extremely lucky to have Ann on my team. Her litigation experience showed as she pursued a very difficult situation and she never gave up. She also negotiates and drafts the commercial agreements for my business operations, sales contracts and employment matters.
