Be polite, but maintain your rights.

Attorney Nicole Naum explains that we are taught from a young age to cooperate with authority, but that does not mean you should answer questions that could potentially incriminate you.

If police want to “ask a few questions,” you can remain respectful while choosing not to answer without an attorney present.

It’s always a good sign when everyone still wants to hang out after work. 😂🍂
Nicole and her family hosted a fall Happy Hour complete with pumpkin carving, a very tasty homemade adult c***r courtesy of Nicole’s husband, and an amazing charcuterie spread by the one and only Nicole Naum.
Good food, good drinks, questionable pumpkin-carving skills, and an all-around fun night with the BLG crew. 🎃
Happy Fall, y’all! 🍁

Last week the Marketing team took a trip to Lynchburg to see Rob and Mary Beth! We had an awesome lunch at The Neighbors Place, surprised Rob with an award, and even shot some videos!

We’re all settled in at our new office in Forest and already helping new clients with criminal, traffic, and DUI cases throughout the Lynchburg area. It’s been exciting to see this office take shape and become part of the community.

If you know someone in the Lynchburg area who may need our help, we’d always appreciate you spreading the word. We’re proud to be here and look forward to continuing to serve the surrounding communities.

Happy Paralegal Week to all the fantastic professionals in the legal field!

PWCBA Friends,
Virginia’s paralegals have something worth celebrating this week. October
4–9 has officially been proclaimed Paralegals Week in the Commonwealth. I started my legal career in the Prince William County Courthouse in 2003. I was young, knew very little about the legal world, and certainly had no idea that more than 20 years later I would still be part of this community. With only a few exceptions, my entire career has been spent right here in Prince William County. In a very real sense, this is where I grew up, both personally and professionally. Over the years, I’ve worked in different roles and on different sides of the courtroom, alongside attorneys, paralegals, clerks, judges, and court staff who taught me more than they probably realize.
I’ve had the opportunity to work with many of you reading this, some in more than one role over the years. This is where I learned the profession, found my footing, made plenty of mistakes, grew into the professional I wanted to be, and eventually found my own voice in it. It’s also a big part of why helping create the PWCBA Paraprofessional Committee has meant so much to me. We have incredibly talented paralegals and paraprofessionals throughout our local legal community. Creating a place for them within the Bar to connect, learn, grow, and have a voice was something I believed in from the beginning, and I’m incredibly proud of what we’re building. So, to our PWCBA paralegals and paraprofessionals, take a minute this week to be proud of the work you do and the careers you’re building. And to the attorneys who work alongside them, this is a pretty good week to make sure they know their work matters.
Happy Paralegals Week! Jaclyn Doherty Co-Chair, Paraprofessional Committee
