Top best Discrimination Lawyers in Arlington | 11 available

Tom Spiggle has four children and for that reason spends a great deal of time at the firm he founded in 2009. When he had fewer children and more time, Tom managed to graduate with honors from the Georgetown University Law School, clerk for a judge, work at several private law firms and serve as an Assistant United States Attorney.. Prior to law school, Tom, a native North Carolinian, received bachelor’s (92) and master’s (96) degrees from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. After undergraduate, he worked the night shift in a light-fixture factory and had a truly remarkable career in pizza delivery. Later he worked as a chemist and as a legislative assistant to Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey in the U.S. House of Representatives.. For those lacking something better to do, Tom’s resume can be found here.. Tom founded Spiggle Law to help individuals facing difficult workplace issues. Although Spiggle Law represents employees in many different matters, Tom has a soft spot for those who suffer from discrimination solely because they are pregnant or have family-care issues, like caring for a sick child or an elderly parent. As former prosecutor with significant experience in high-level criminal cases, Tom is also uniquely qualified to represent individuals subject to workplace investigations and criminal prosecutions.. Lest the whimsy of this bio to lead you to believe otherwise, Tom delivers for his clients. He has tried over twenty cases to verdict, including a civil rights case victory that resulted in punitive six-figure punitive damages being awarded against the defendant. Tom has also obtained significant settlements for clients without ever having to set foot in a courthouse.

Thank you for considering my law firm for your legal needs. I am a law graduate of the University of Nairobi, Regent University, Harvard University and the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General’s Legal Center and School. I became a member of the Virginia State Bar in 2003. I also hold admissions in the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, the United States District Court, Eastern District of Virginia and U.S. Military Courts-Martial.. Prior to my legal practice, I served for over a decade as a Sailor in the United States Navy. While stationed on the USS Saipan LHA-2, I served on two overseas deployments in the Adriatic Sea due to political turmoil in Albania in 1998 as well as during the 2000 federal elections in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. While on shore duty in Washington, DC, I serviced the military offices of the White House, The Pentagon, Defense Intelligence Agency and the Office of Naval Intelligence, among others, as a pay and travel clerk. I have extensive training and experience working on U.S. military benefits.. Following a honorable discharge from the U.S. Navy, I accepted a commission as a Judge Advocate in the U.S. Army Reserve JAG Corps. I subsequently completed military law training at the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General Legal Center and School in Charlottesville, VA as well as the Direct Commission Officer Course in Fort Benning, GA. In addition to my private law practice, I currently serve as an Administrative Law Attorney with the U.S. Army Trial Defense Services (TDS) in Fort Eustis, VA. I previously served as Soldiers’ Counsel for the National Capital Region Physical Evaluation Board in Crystal City, VA as well as a Defense Counsel with TDS in Alexandria, VA.. I focus my private law practice in immigration and nationality law, tax law and military law. As an immigrant myself, I am passionate about helping immigrants achieve their American Dream. I am also passionate about helping my fellow Sailors and Soldiers achieve their maximum benefits in accordance with federal and state law.. I was born and raised in Kenya and currently live in Northern Virginia with my wife and our daughter. When not working or spending time with my family, I spend time volunteering in my community and/or going for long runs.

In 2012, I founded a law firm to help people who were being treated unfairly. Since then, we have grown and worked with individuals and businesses on disputes ranging from employment discrimination to police misconduct to disputes between neighbors.. In general, our firm, The Erlich Law Office, pursues discrimination, wage, civil rights, constitutional, and general litigation.  We handle matters from intake to conclusion, whether that is settlement, judgment, or another result.. We pride ourselves on full service, happy clients, and hard work. I hope we can help you.
