You represented a national petroleum manufacturer selling 1,100 properties across the country. How complex was that?

It was truly a team effort! More than 30 attorneys, paralegals and staff worked together on the transaction. Unique, complex and unexpected issues always come up in large transactions and part of the “fun” is navigating those issues. There were complicating factors and everyone pitched in to get it closed on a tight timeline.

How does your expertise inform your community work serving on Norfolk’s Board of Zoning Appeals?

My background in real estate law provides a good base for understanding nuances of the zoning code, as well as evaluating the various factors that must be considered with respect to requests that come before the BZA. I am always interested in projects occurring around town, and it is so fun to experience and play a small part in the projects in Norfolk and Hampton Roads that bolster our community.
