Why Choose Mr. DeRue?
- Focused Practice, Direct Access – Commercial litigation is not a side service at Willcox & Savage — it is the core of what the firm does. As an associate in the Business and Commercial Litigation practice group, I work directly on every matter I handle. My clients have direct access to me throughout their case, not just at billing time.
- Strategic, Early-Stage Thinking – Not every dispute needs to go to trial — and not every dispute can be resolved without one. My approach starts with an honest assessment of the facts, the law, and the realistic outcomes so clients can make informed decisions from day one. Where early dispositive motions can end a case efficiently, I pursue them. Where litigation is the right path, I build toward it from the start.
- Virginia and D.C. Court Experience – I litigate in Virginia state courts, the District of Columbia, and the United States District Courts for the Eastern and Western Districts of Virginia. I trained at George Mason University Antonin Scalia Law School in Arlington and have practiced exclusively in this market since entering the profession.
- A Firm Built for Business Disputes – Willcox & Savage brings decades of experience representing businesses, business owners, and individuals in complex commercial matters across Virginia and the D.C. region. Clients benefit from a full-service firm with deep roots in the Northern Virginia market and the resources to handle matters of any size and complexity.
