Employment Contract
Our firm represents small and large businesses in a variety of matters involving employment law and human resources. Our primary objective is to assist our clients in maintaining mutually beneficial relationships with their employees and mitigate and manage risks. Whether for an emerging or long-established business, our firm takes great care to adapt to the unique needs of each client. We assist clients with the development and analysis of employee manuals and policies, employment contracts, and noncompetition and nonsolicitation agreements.
Employment Litigation
For employment disputes, we advise and as necessary, litigate employee discrimination claims, EEOC complaints, unemployment benefit challenges, contract and tort claims, and ADA/ADEA claims. We endeavor to utilize unique strategies to promote early resolution or dismissal of these claims; however, in the event that these strategies do not dispose of the litigation, we diligently prepare each case for trial through conclusion, always being mindful of overall costs. We work hard, advocating for our clients and protecting their interests.

Personal Injury
Persons and families sometimes suffer injuries, both personal and financial in nature. Clement Wheatley has decades of experience representing clients in significant personal injuries of varying nature. Our team has the skill and experience to take the matter from investigation through trial. The cost of treatment, rehabilitation and recovery from a serious personal injury can be enormous. Mindful of those costs, we work hard to obtain early resolution through negotiation, targeted discovery, and mediation. In the event such strategies do not result in a satisfactory outcome for our clients, we are also prepared to diligently represent our clients through trial. We strive to accommodate the scheduling of prompt consultations and to minimize the stress of conflict and litigation. Our team is dedicated to standing with our clients from the beginning stages of their claims through resolution. Some of the areas we have represented clients in pursuit or defense of personal injury claims are as follows...

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
In terms of trust and estate administration, our attorneys take great care to see that the wishes of the decedent are carried out accordingly. Our clients appreciate our ability to handle tax returns and all other aspects, particularly in cases involving valuable assets.
Wills
It’s a delicate matter with obvious emotional undertones, but we can provide the experience and empathy to help you leave the legacy you want and deserve. The drafting and formation of wills and trusts requires a long view down the track to navigate the twists and turns in front of you now, and those your loved ones might have to navigate in the future. We use our expertise in the intricacies of the law as well as our experience to straighten out the road and ensure a smooth course.
Trusts
Our trusts and estates practice group is very experienced in estate planning and estate administration, from modest sized estates to those worth in excess of $100 million. We strive to learn about our clients, their families and beneficiaries in order to finely tailor a unique estate plan that protects and promotes what is important to them. For some, an estate plan focuses on the avoidance of capital gains and estate taxes. For others, it is about providing financial security to loved ones who are vulnerable by age, disability, indebtedness, or struggling marriages; accomplishing a transfer of wealth; making it easier on their survivors to manage the estates they leave behind at death; making charitable gifts; or simply disposing their assets in an orderly fashion.
Power of Attorney
Related to estate planning are the management of assets and the health, support and maintenance of clients. We use a variety of techniques and strategies that take into account the unique needs of our clients and their families. For example, to avoid costly guardianship proceedings for clients who may become disabled, we can prepare a springing durable general power of attorney that only comes into effect when a doctor certifies a client’s disability. We can prepare documents that empower an attorney-in-fact or trustee to exercise broad or very limited powers to manage a client’s business affairs. For healthcare decisions when clients are physically or mentally unable to make them, we can prepare documents that express their wishes on treatment, evaluation, admission to healthcare facilities, and end-of-life decisions. Recognizing that a majority of our clients reside in Southern Virginia, our documents are geared for use in not only Virginia, but also North Carolina.
