Celebrating Two Years of Church Legal and Looking to 2026

Christen named to the 2025 Virginia Business Legal Elite - Health Law

Wrapping up my second, full year with Church Legal, I have much to be grateful for.

I opened Church Legal with the goal of providing thoughtful, responsive counsel for businesses and professionals in our region, the people and organizations who keep our community thriving.

Since then, I have had the privilege of working with clients and colleagues across Virginia on matters ranging from compliance and operations to business planning and brand protection.

This year saw ongoing recognition for Christen Church and Church Legal.

Thank you so much to colleagues who continue to think of and nominate me for my work. I am proud of the practice that I am building and appreciate the flexibility it allows me to respond quickly to our ever-changing landscape.

As I enter into annual business planning for year three, I am deeply grateful to those who have trusted me with their legal needs and referrals.

Wishing you all a restorative end to the year and a strong start to the next one!
