I recommend Donna Wilson to anyone who is looking for an estate planning or elder law attorney in the Williamsburg area. Although I am an elder law attorney in Tampa, how I met Donna told me everything I needed to know about her and her law firm. We spent several days at a professional “bootcamp” with the sole focus on becoming the best advocates we can be for the people that trust us with their lives as well as their post-mortem affairs. Donna stood out as an extremely capable attorney ready, able and willing to provide clients – not only the highest level of skill and expertise – but all the aspects of respect, empathy and attention lost today in our profession. If you are in need of genuine people who can meet your estate planning or elder law needs, do not look any further than Donna Wilson, and Wilson Law PLC.

We had our estate planning done by another attorney several years ago and needed to update documents. Donna Wilson found several errors and inconsistencies in our old documents that would not only have cost us more money, but could have left us and our child unprotected at the time of our death or disability. We now have piece of mind knowing we have had a thorough and professional review of our situation and that we now have a plan that is tailored to our needs.
As we were deciding what plans to make for our family several alternate scenarios were created to give us examples of what could happen depending on our choices and it was clear that Ms. Wilson clearly knows her field. The process was smooth, yet complete, and the office staff was quite responsive to questions and concerns. Communication has been wonderful and the documents we received were carefully explained and extremely well organized. We are relieved and confident that we made the best decision in choosing Wilson Law.

As a couple quickly approaching the age for retirement, we turned to Donna Wilson and her team for help in protecting our wealth. The process was painless and easy to understand. With children and grandchildren in the mix, we wanted to make sure our assets would be available to them upon our departure from this life. We were able to create an exceptional plan, legacy trust, and other components to make certain our wishes would be carried out. We were so impressed with the final outcome of this effort that we shared our experience (not all the details) with other family members. Three other family members have since turned to Donna and her team and completed very similar processes. It sure is a good feeling to know that our family will benefit from the fruits of our life-long hard work and not a bunch of bureaucrats.

I cannot thank Mr. Hicks enough for the incredible support and expertise he provided during the most difficult time of my life. I was facing a false sexual assault accusation that left me feeling trapped with no way out. I was at risk of deportation and losing my job, and the stress was unbearable for months. At one point, I even felt hopeless and suicidal.
Mr. Hicks not only brought his extensive knowledge and skill to my case, but he also treated me like family. He truly cared about my well-being, and his unwavering support gave me the strength to keep going. Through his hard work and dedication, he was able to get my case dismissed and turn my life around.
If you are looking for a lawyer who will fight for you with compassion and unmatched expertise, I highly recommend Mr. Hicks. He is a lifesaver, and I will forever be grateful for everything he has done for me.

I am really greatful for my attorney Jad Sarsour he made everything possible to drop my case down and I was excited with the results. I was scared because this was the second reckless driving ticket I got in 2 month and was worried for the consequences and he made everything possible to make sure I leave the court with the result I expected. Very reasonable prices as well can’t complain on that

Sarah Knapp and the Shounbach team were truly pivotal in guiding me through my divorce. Sarah is not only a highly skilled attorney but also incredibly kind, patient, and calm—qualities that make all the difference during such a difficult time. I always felt supported and knew she was advocating for my best interests every step of the way. Divorce is messy, emotional, and overwhelming, but having an attorney like Sarah in your corner brings a sense of clarity and peace. I can't recommend her enough.

When what should have been an uncomplicated divorce turned into a three ringed circus, I was very fortunate to have Alan Bowden as my council.
From the onset he was caring, kind, upfront, plain spoken yet obviously very intelligent. There was never a moment I doubted his strategy or advice.
During the court hearings he was very well prepared, professional, articulate and to the point, unlike the paper shuffling, mumbling and redundant questions from the opposition. Alan kept it simple, no mud slinging and classy.
On top of Alan's apparent love for the law, justice and giving his client 100% , he is also a very nice guy and a pleasure to be around, even in difficult circumstances.
I couldn't offer a higher recommendation!

One of the best , experienced, talented & life savor attorney who understands the client's problem easily and guide with appropriate solution. Finding a right attorney is really an struggle in USA.

I highly recommend this firm. We finally got justice with the help of this firm and we are living happily now.

Elena guided me through a very difficult case of child custody. She is an excellent attorney who is very well prepared professionally but also is a good advisor and counsel. She proposed wise and measured approaches to very aggressive actions of the counterpart. She strongly defended my rights but at the same time she advised me not to loose the big picture. I trust without her legal advise I could have been stuck in custody litigation for years. She helped me out of a very complex situation and that saved me a lot of psychological distress and financial burden. I really appreciate the professionalism of Elena and her colleagues at Crowley Hodge & Fein P.C.
I strongly recommend Elena to any parent in need of a lawyer to defend his/her rights for child custody.

My fiancee and I came to Doug to create a pre-nup before we got married. We had pretty clear ideas as to what we wanted the agreement to look like. Doug and his associate Rachael Ander formalized our agreement very quickly, at the same time pointing out items we had overlooked and which helped to make the agreement much more complete and conclusive. My experience working with Doug was not only easy and effective but enjoyable. His team is extremely professional and efficient. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Our estate administrator engaged Mr. Fife after an estate with multiple heirs became bogged down. We wish we had used his services from the beginning instead of trying to do it ourselves. In spite of entering a situation in which heirs had become contentious, Mr. Fife’s calm, fact-based professionalism helped all parties to meet deadlines and achieve resolution. Mr. Fife listened carefully, took our concerns seriously and helped us understand the potential risks or rewards of the available options, helping us set priorities. He did not sugarcoat the hard realities of dealing with competing interests. He proactively explored and respected any limitations that were present with respect to time, budget and our roles as clients. He is precise, experienced and knowledgeable, but did not hesitate to research any points in question in advance of staking a claim on those points — to us a most valuable asset in an estate attorney.

I came across Merritt Green and his firm on Linkedin. Right off the bat, I could tell from some of the articles he had written on law he was an excellent attorney. He knows the law well and runs a firm in Northern Virginia (McLean). I had a dispute with a large company and contacted Merritt who not only called me back the same day. He also gave me very valuable advice. I strongly suggest you contact Merritt if you find yourself in a dispute with an employer or corporation. I give him my highest recommendation!

Dan Rathbun and Dave Bateman represented me in a partition matter.
Dan and Dave were experts in setting my expectations and providing insights on the most likely outcomes. My questions were responded to quickly and thoroughly using language and examples I could understand. While legal representation has its price, I walked away from each conversation/email knowing the path forward and feeling that I was getting the best representation and return on my investment.
As a result of their strategic thinking and expertise, the court made a determination that was extremely favorable.
I very strongly recommend Rathbun Bateman -- I would trust them again to represent my interests. Having observed Dave Bateman in deposition and trial settings, there is nobody I would rather work with. He is professional, quick on his feet, and used all available resources to secure my win.

After traveling the world with the US Air Force we decided to settle here in the Tidewater and raise our two daughters. Now that Vtech and UVA are in our rear view mirror, we are now downsizing to a home on the James and decided to use Hanger Law during this complex transaction. Jeana and Hillary were excellent - providing a clear explanation of events and ensuring that everything is done properly and efficiently. They can do everything that a Real Estate agent can do, plus they are great attorneys with a focus on real estate law and at a fraction of the cost of an agent. I highly recommend them!

Highly recommend! I hired Attorney Carmines to help with settling my mother's estate. Her estate was fairly large, and was going to me and my brother and to our step-sisters. The step-sisters were fighting everything I tried to do. They even threatened to take me to court. He stepped in, and calmed the situation down. Then he helped me with a plan to settle the estate, handling the court filings, and was always there to help. And I never had to speak to the step-sisters again (what a relief!). I was confident that he was protecting me.
His fees were reasonable, and the end result was exactly what I wanted.

Will helped me with settling my mother's estate. I was the executrix and was having difficulty with a sibling - with getting information, getting responses... Will helped me a lot with negotiating with her partner to finalize the estate, as well as guiding me with probate filings. He's not always the most responsive, and his great guidance and clear explanations outweigh this. I definitely recommend Will.

I am beyond satisfied with William Carmines. He helped me and my husband update our will, and he was thorough and competent. He made us feel at home with the whole process and answered every question we had. Very professional and polite.

What a Business Lawyer Can Do for You
A business lawyer provides critical legal guidance and support to entrepreneurs, startups, and established businesses. Whether you are forming a new company, drafting contracts, or navigating complex regulations, a business attorney ensures you are legally protected and operating within the law. They can also help prevent legal disputes or represent you in negotiations, transactions, or lawsuits that arise during the course of business operations.
Business lawyers have expertise in areas such as business formation, contract law, intellectual property, employment law, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate governance. They ensure that your business is compliant with relevant laws and help mitigate risks that could threaten your company's success.
When Should I Hire a Business Lawyer?
Hiring a business lawyer is essential at various stages of business development, including:
- Forming a business: When deciding on the best structure for your company (LLC, corporation, partnership, etc.), a lawyer can guide you through the registration and compliance process.
- Drafting contracts: If you need contracts for employees, partners, suppliers, or clients, a lawyer ensures these documents are legally sound and in your best interest.
- Mergers, acquisitions, or dissolutions: If you are buying, selling, or dissolving a company, legal counsel is critical to avoid costly mistakes.
- Compliance and regulatory issues: A lawyer can help navigate complex regulations, particularly in industries like healthcare, finance, or tech.
- Resolving disputes: Whether it's contract disagreements, intellectual property infringement, or employment issues, a business lawyer helps mediate, negotiate, or litigate on your behalf.

Business lawyers provide a wide range of services that cater to different legal needs of a business. They can:
- Help you choose the best legal structure for your business.
- Draft, review, and negotiate contracts with employees, suppliers, customers, or business partners.
- Ensure regulatory compliance with local, state, and federal laws.
- Advise on tax strategies to minimize your business's tax burden.
- Assist with intellectual property protection, such as trademarks, patents, and copyrights.
- Handle mergers, acquisitions, and business sales, ensuring all legal paperwork is in order.
- Resolve disputes through negotiation, arbitration, or litigation.
How Are Business Lawyers Paid?
Business lawyers typically charge either by the hour or on a flat-fee basis, depending on the complexity of the work. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rates: The lawyer charges based on the time spent working on your case. Rates vary depending on the lawyer's experience and location.
- Flat fees: For certain tasks, such as incorporating a business or drafting a standard contract, a lawyer may offer a flat fee.
- Retainer: Some businesses may hire a lawyer on retainer, paying a fixed amount each month to have ongoing access to legal services.
The payment structure is often discussed during an initial consultation so you can choose the one that best suits your business needs and budget.
How Much Does a Business Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a business lawyer depends on factors such as:
- The complexity of the legal issue: More complex matters, like mergers or intellectual property disputes, typically cost more than routine tasks like contract drafting.
- The lawyer's experience and location: More experienced lawyers or those in larger cities often charge higher fees.
- The nature of the billing arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $150 to $1,000 or more, depending on the lawyer's expertise. Flat fees are usually available for simpler matters like forming an LLC or drafting a standard contract.
It's essential to discuss fee structures upfront to avoid surprises.
Top Questions to Ask a Business Lawyer
Before hiring a business lawyer, ask the following questions during your consultation:
-
What is your experience with businesses like mine?
Find out if the lawyer has handled legal issues for companies in your industry. -
What services do you offer?
Ensure the lawyer can meet all your business's legal needs, from contract drafting to dispute resolution. -
What are your fees, and how do you bill?
Get clarity on how you'll be charged - whether by the hour, flat fee, or retainer. -
How do you handle conflicts of interest?
Ask how the lawyer ensures there is no conflict in representing your business. -
Can you provide references from other business clients?
Speaking with past clients will give you an idea of the lawyer's expertise and professionalism. -
Do you have experience in my specific industry?
Industry-specific knowledge can be crucial, especially in highly regulated fields like healthcare or finance.
How to Check the Credibility of a Business Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable business lawyer:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is in good standing and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for client reviews or testimonials: Online reviews, testimonials, or word of mouth from other business owners can provide insight into the lawyer's reliability and effectiveness.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should have satisfied clients who can vouch for their services.
- Check professional memberships: Membership in respected legal organizations (such as the American Bar Association or a local business lawyer association) can signal credibility.
- Review their website and professional profile: A well-established lawyer typically has a professional website showcasing their areas of expertise, credentials, and case success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a business lawyer, prepare the following:
- A description of your business and its structure: This will help the lawyer understand your legal needs.
- Any current contracts or agreements: If you're seeking contract advice, bring copies of existing contracts.
- A list of legal issues or concerns: Be ready to discuss any potential legal challenges, such as regulatory compliance, disputes, or transactions.
- Financial documents: If applicable, bring financial records related to the legal matter you're seeking help with.
- Questions about fees and billing: Ensure you understand the lawyer’s payment structure and fees upfront.
By preparing these materials, you can ensure that your first meeting with a business lawyer is productive and informative.
