Joan Fine
Experience, Options, Solutions
Ms. Fine has practiced law for 35 years, the last 28 in Virginia. Her business law experience started immediately after graduating from Boston College Law School in 1982 when she worked at a 50-attorney Boston law firm. In 1989 she joined the Costello Dickenson firm in Winchester, Virginia, and in 1990 opened her own firm.
Ms. Fine has extensive practice drafting business contracts, including buy-sell agreements, employment agreements and non-competition agreements, and, balancing that experience, she reviews and litigates contracts drafted by other attorneys.
Her Wills, Trusts and Estates practice involves planning, drafting estate documents and probate litigation.
Her equine practice is an extension of a lifetime of horse activities including showing hunters and fox hunting. Ms. Fine drafts and reviews boarding contracts, sales contracts and equine releases, and defends horse owners, blacksmiths and veterinarians in court.
She listens carefully to clients, answers questions, informs them of their options, and implements a strategy based upon the client's choice of the available options.
