Our practice areas include corporate and general business law, government contracting, intellectual property, estate and business succession planning, litigation and arbitration, and tax planning. As government contracting experts, our attorneys advise and assist clients with virtually all legal aspects of conducting business with the federal government, including qualification and registration, contracting, compliance, claims, bid protests, and other disputes. As corporate/business lawyers, we guide clients through every stage of the business cycle, from entity selection, formation and financing of the company’s operations at the beginning, to protecting their intellectual property, to managing risk as the business grows, through the realization of a business owner’s exit strategy by successfully negotiating sale of the company. Reston Law’s estate and business succession planning, focuses on wealth preservation by reducing exposure to probate, creditors, and taxes making matters easier for family members and business constituents. When clients need assistance with resolution of legal disputes, we also handle litigation matters, bid protests, and arbitration proceedings.
By fostering both logical and creative skills in children, we give them the freedom to explore a range of professions, including those that rely on both sides of the brain. Encourage them to delve into science and math as well as language and art—fields that may seem separate but, in fact, complement each other deeply. In the right career, they’ll find that logic and creativity aren’t opposites but partners, and that they do not have to be limited by societal categories.

A foundational principle of Contract Law is that agreements are made in good faith and on positive terms. The best contracts are those that are never litigated, a testament to the strength of the relationship between the parties involved. Business agreements are created to benefit both companies, and when mutual trust exists, they can be powerful tools that drive both parties forward.
