Living off of a bag of trail mix, he got a job at a non-profit organization in Baltimore (long before anyone knew that being a community organizer could qualify you to become president). But it was while working at Clean Water Action that he met his future wife and honed many of the advocacy and negotiation skills he now puts to use for his clients.. Justin is married and has two children, two dogs, and various plants. When he isn’t chasing his children around the house, he enjoys reading novels and arguing with strangers on the internet.

His specialties are French toast, pancakes, and blueberry pie. He can also make a passable curry and is always trying to expand his culinary repertoire, mostly just so that he has an excuse to buy more kitchen gadgets..

Justin says that as counsel for clients who have been harassed and discriminated against, his first job is to listen … and his second job is to listen some more. It’s important to him that his clients know they’re always respected and that he works hard to apply to their case every aspect of the law that protects them.

Jack was a political science major at Virginia Tech before graduating magna cum laude from George Mason University School of Law. While there, he was a member of the Law Review, in which his note about court decisions affecting alternative dispute resolution, What’s in a Name? Why the Judicially-Named Grounds for Vacating Arbitral Awards Should Remain Available in Light of Hall Street, was selected for publication. He was also a member of the Trial Advocacy Board at GMUSL, and his team was a finalist in the American Bar Association’s Labor and Employment Section of the New York City Regional Trial Advocacy Competition.. Jack became interested in employment law when he clerked for an employment law firm during law school. He gained experience there with Title VII, False Claims Act, Americans with Disabilities Act, and retaliation claims from initial negotiations through appeals.. Over the years, he has worked on cases ranging from multimillion-dollar breach of contract and business organization suits … to securing a neutral reference for a teacher moving from private to public school … to ensuring that a clothing designer got a severance package to open a small business. He believes in dedicating himself to whatever is necessary to do high quality work, even if it means long hours, and he maintains the strategic mindset of a trial lawyer even when he expects a case to settle. Jack is a particularly persuasive writer, especially when complex issues are involved. He has drafted winning arguments for trial court motions, as well as a successful appeal in Maryland state court.. In his spare time, Jack likes to hike and fish in the mountains surrounding the Shenandoah Valley and on the Shenandoah River. He enjoys playing golf and softball, but also likes to kick back and read a good book or watch television. His favorite author is Cormac McCarthy, and his favorite TV show is “Breaking Bad.” His favorite sport is baseball, and he has thrown warm-up pitches in the Nationals Park bullpen – alas, not as a pro baseball player but as part of a tour.

If you are looking for an attorney who will listen, who will provide sound advice, fierce advocacy and be available when you need counsel -- have confidence.  You have found your attorney.. I have the wisdom and experience that you're looking for to ensure your interests are protected.  And the skills to get the job done.

I've had the pleasure of working in a town that was once small and is now medium sized, and having contributed to its growth over the last two and a half decades.  I truly enjoy the practice of law and helping my clients deal with the issues they encounter.

I'm a transactional attorney. I advise clients who are interested in forming a business or are seeking to enter into a partnership or joint venture with a family member, friend or business partner. I also represent and assist clients in commercial matters, such as those that require the drafting, review and negotiation of contracts, including lease agreements, purchase sale agreements, loan and financing agreements, security agreements, promissory notes, assignments of rents and leases and, as an additional example, franchise agreements. I also provide advice on landlord-tenant matters.. More than the type of law I practice however, is the philosophy which guides my practice of law. My approach is: (i) client-centered and (ii) goal-oriented. Clients (and service to clients) are the single greatest asset of the firm, its main purpose and the reason for its success. Zealous and dedicated representation are not merely aspirational goals; they are the principles underling my practice. I represent my clients and their interests with conviction and resolve.. The fact that my practice is transactional means that I don't need to be overly confrontational; in fact, I'm aware that both parties in a transaction seek a common goal - a "meeting of the minds." My focus is to facilitate a mutually beneficial outcome; a consummated transaction in which the parties have the opportunity to achieve their vision.

I was born in San Antonio, TX, where I spent the first decade of my life. A change in employment for my father meant a move to South America. There I spent five years living in Venezuela before returning to the great state of Texas, where I have resided ever since. My time in South America allowed me to experience an entirely different culture and gave me the opportunity to become fluent in Spanish, a valuable asset in my current practice.. After graduating from high school in Dallas, I attended Texas Tech University where I received a BBA in International Business from the Rawls College of Business. During that time, I also studied abroad in Spain, where I was able to complete a minor in Spanish. Before continuing my education, I moved to Vail, Colorado where I worked as a ski patroller at the Beaver Creek Resort for two seasons. Later, I attended law school in Fort Worth, earning my Juris Doctor from the Texas Wesleyan University School of Law (now the Texas A&M University School of Law).. I joined Bailey & Galyen in 2013 to work in its Workers' Compensation department protecting the rights of Texas workers.

I have an excellent understanding of the construction and real estate field as a result of my experience in architecture.  I often assist my clients with transactional matters such as drafting and negotiating contracts, filling liens, creation and maintenance of business entities, and preparation of wills and trusts.  My office has an in-house Stewart Title in which we can handle any type of real estate transactions.  I also represent both plaintiffs and defendants in a broad range of civil litigation matters. My clients include home owners’ associations, home owners, builders, sub-contractors, suppliers, and other businesses and individuals outside of the construction industry.. Biography:. I graduated from the University of Tulsa College of Law in 2006 with a Juris Doctorate degree, where I worked in the Older American Law Project of the Boeche Legal Clinic and was member of Phi Delta Phi and the Board of Advocates.  I also graduated from Texas Tech University with a Master of Architecture degree.  Prior to obtaining his law degree, I worked for Landress Architecture in Lubbock, Texas; Charles Cunniffe Architects in Aspen, Colorado; and The Winn Office Architecture in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  Prior to joining Jones Hassett, PC, I was an associate attorney at the Suster Law Group in Plano, Texas and Kelly M. Davis and Associates in Lewisville, Texas.. Practice Areas:. Construction Law. Corporate Litigation. Commercial Real Estate. Commercial Transactions/Litigation. Probate

I have always had a heart for service and helping people. I am also no stranger to hard work. Let me put my passion to work for you. Divorce, child custody, and child support matters can be confusing and emotionally draining. You need someone in your corner. Someone dedicated to helping others. Someone with experience. My entire career has been devoted to representing or helping individuals in their time of need and it is a principal to which I am still dedicated.

I grew up in Arlington Washington on a 100-year-old out-of-commission dairy farm my parents fell in love with. I now live in Stanwood, Washington with my family. My life has been full of both blessings and setbacks which have taught me to live each day with an open heart and mind. And in turn, I am always on the hunt for the next trail to hike, far-off destination to explore, or new age fad to experience.. I have been licensed to practice in Washington since 2013. I am also licensed to practice in the Western District of Washington and 9th circuit court of appeals in federal court.

I bring a 20-year career as an entrepreneur and small business owner in the publishing field to the practice of law. My actual experience with start-up, management, product conception and development, and revenue management put me in a special category to help you navigate the legalities of the business world.. I spent some years negotiating contracts of all sorts on behalf of a major corporation (including non-disclosure agreements, software licensing, professional services, joint development, acquisitions, etc.); this immersive experience allows me to see the strategy AND tactics of contract review from the perspective of both the seller and the buyer.. I emphasize conservative integrity at every step, responsive legal services for current and long-term needs, timely communication, and sensible fees that do not compromise results.

I believe that trial lawyers, along with the jury system, perform an integral function in our society, by leveling the playing field among parties with disparate economic resources. By focusing my practice on a select number of catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases, rather than focusing on volume, I am able to devote the individual attention that each client deserves. As a result, the vast majority of my clients are referrals from other lawyers, judges and members of the community.

I believe in zealously advocating for my clients. I've dedicated the majority of my practice to helping people with their financial and probate needs. I would love to speak with you about your legal needs.
