Neil Winchester Bio
I was born in the Upstate of South Carolina. My father was an officer in the US Army and my family moved many times when I was young.  We lived in places like Hawaii, Italy, Germany and Atlanta.  My family moved to Virginia Beach  and I graduated from Kempsville High School.  After high school, I attended the University of Virginia and graduated in 1981 with distinction.  After taking a year of so off from school, I went to the Marshall Wythe School of Law at the College of William & Mary.  I graduated and passed the bar exam in 1986.. My first job as an attorney was with the firm of Weisberg & Stein in downtown Norfolk. I started working there in 1986.  Weisberg & Stein was a general practice law firm.  As such, I worked and learned about many areas of the law.  I handled all types of cases there including  divorce, bankruptcy, real estate, traffic, collections, criminal and many other types of cases. It was a good experience learning under a set of good attorneys.. In 1990, I was hired by the firm of Alexander P. Smith and Associates which was also located in downtown Norfolk.  This firm focused on consumer bankruptcy cases.  I worked with this firm until 2005.. In 2005, I help create the law firm known as Harbour Law.  I have continued to represent many people in filing consumer bankruptcy cases.  Since the beginning of my career, I have filed over 4300 cases in bankruptcy.. I am currently married and my wife is an elementary school teacher.  I have 3 children.  Two have already graduated from college and the youngest will graduate from high school this year.  I helped coach baseball, basketball and soccer when my children were younger..
