Will has been practicing law since 2014. Having cut his teeth as a criminal prosecutor and as a defense attorney, he now focuses exclusively on civil litigation. He represents companies and individuals in all manner of cases, including for defamation, breach of contract, consumer protection violations, tortious interference with contract, breach of fiduciary duty, business conspiracy, trade secrets, and all other personal and commercial disputes. In addition, he handles employment litigation, including violation of non-compete or non-solicitation clauses, negotiation of severance agreements, confidentiality, non-disparagement, employment discrimination (Title VII, ADEA, FMLA, Virginia Human Rights Act, etc.), employment retaliation, and related disputes. Finally, given his experience as a prosecutor and criminal defense attorney, he sometimes represents clients in crime-adjacent cases like Protective Orders, CPS investigations, and the like. He is a fighter who will do everything he can to achieve the best possible outcome in your case.
