An Overview of Our Law Firm in Ashburn, VA

Raymond Ceresa founded the Ceresa Law Firm in 1997 to specialize in the representation of condominium and homeowners associations and business clients. Mr. Ceresa is a 1984 of Washington & Lee University and a 1987 graduate of Wake Forest University School of Law. Mr. Ceresa joined the firm of Reese, Broome in 1987 and practices law there until 1997, when he opened his law firm in Ashburn, VA. Mr. Ceresa started his own firm because he believed that he could provide better and more individualized service to his clients than he could at a large firm. He also believed that he could provide legal services at more reasonable rates.

The Ceresa Law Firm offers a unique approach to the practice of law. We are experts on the law, but that is not enough. We also understand and appreciate the personal and economic needs of our clients. Many areas of the law are well established by the statutes and case law, but it should not be applied in a vacuum. Opposing parties are individuals, and a good lawyer must be able to distinguish between someone who will respond to negotiation and one who requires a more aggressive approach. A lawyer who cannot tell the difference or who not take the time to find out will often waste their client’s money. Our vast experience allows us to quickly and efficiently respond to our clients’ needs.
