Our Practice Areas
From Our Family to Yours
As a husband and father of three boys, I understand just how important it is to protect what matters most is family. After years with a large, national law firm, I saw how impersonal estate planning could be. That’s why I started Berdan Law: a boutique Virginia practice dedicated to providing personalised estate planning services. I focus on building lasting relationships, offering clear communication, and making sure you feel confident and informed every step of the way.
