Business Planning & Litigation

Serving Virginia Owners, Not Just Their Entities

Whether you operate a single-member LLC, a family business, or a small company with employees, legal decisions about your business are ultimately decisions about your time, money, and risk.

Andrews Law PLC helps owners organize, document, and enforce their business arrangements—while keeping an eye on how those decisions interact with personal assets, guarantees, real estate, and estate planning.

Business Disputes and Litigation

When a dispute arises, it may involve not only the business, but also the owners personally—especially if real estate or personal guarantees are involved. Andrews Law can assist in:

  • Breach-of-contract claims
  • Disputes between co-owners or members
  • Collections on notes, invoices, and judgments
  • Disputes involving business-related real estate
  • Issues arising from the sale or dissolution of a business

Balancing Litigation Risk and Business Reality

Court can be an important tool, but it can also be a distraction and a drain. For each dispute, the firm will work with you to evaluate:

  • The strength of your claims or defenses
  • The cost and timing of litigation versus settlement
  • The impact on cash flow and operations
  • How the dispute interacts with your personal finances and estate planning

If you are considering forming a new venture, updating your agreements, or responding to a dispute, reach out to discuss options before signing or responding in writing.
