John M. Napier has vast experience working with developers, builders, investors, agents, landlords and tenants in all aspects of real estate, both in the residential and commercial realm. John’s focus on entrepreneurial endeavors, both in the legal and business realms, have resulted in him serving as advisor, attorney, and general counsel to businesses of all kinds, real estate developers, builders, and professionals. He is barred in Virginia and California—and also passed the New York bar, with admission pending.. The son of a Naval Aviator and grandson of a World War II veteran, John has spent significant time on both coasts, with many years in the Coastal Virginia area working with some of the largest real estate developers, investors, and brokers in the business, as well as representing new ventures and start up companies of all types. John also has significant international experience, working for a 100-year- old firm in London, England, and serving the Ugandan Judiciary in East Africa as the first Court Accredited Mediator in the history of Uganda. He has also served multiple non-profit organizations, both domestically and internationally.. After finishing his bachelor’s degree at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, and working for four years as a professional in the real estate development field, John returned to the west coast to matriculate at Pepperdine University School of Law, in Malibu, California, where he received his Juris Doctor and Master of Dispute Resolution. After law school, John spent a year mediating over 115 cases in the High Court of Uganda, Commercial Division. He then returned to Virginia, where his practice now encompasses real estate at every level, all manner of business matters—from formation to dissolution—negotiation, mediation, and arbitration of any type of dispute, serving non-profits with their legal needs, as well as matters relating to international development and the rule of law.. John loves music, film, and travel, as well as philosophical discourse of most any kind.
