Bankruptcy

Do you need a fresh start? Are the medical bills mounting? Are you presently unemployed? Are the credit card collectors calling day and night? There is hope to keep your head above water. We’ll protect you and show you how you can have a fresh start.

If you are already behind on credit cards, car loans, and other bills, it gets more and more difficult to get caught up again. Many of our clients come to us after feeling financially trapped with no way to get out.

You do not have to be a slave to your debt any longer. It is worth it to consider other options when you do not see any way out.

Family Law

Family legal issues are nearly impossible to resolve on your own. There are many complex, emotional decisions that have to be made which will affect many relationships for years to come. Our qualified attorneys will walk you through the difficult decisions you’re facing.

When significant financial assets or children are involved, it makes the whole situation much more volatile.

While our clients often come to a resolution on their own, there are many other times where the only alternative is fighting for your rights in court. If your partner will not compromise with you, we can help.

Estate Planning

Estate planning doesn’t have to be complicated. We can walk you through the entire process quickly with an experienced estate attorney who can ask all the right questions and process your case efficiently.

Plan for the future. If you are unable to make decisions due to a serious injury, disability or death, who will manage your affairs? The stress and heartache that occurs in emergency situations can cause turmoil in families that last generations. Make it a point to decide how your future will be handled while you still can.

Small Business Law

Every business comes with no small amount of legal paperwork.

If you are a new business owner, you may not know where to start. There are mandatory steps you need to take to protect your personal assets and your business against liabilities. We’ll help you set up contractual agreements to tie up loose ends and protect all parties.

We also have a team who can help with collections if clients fail to pay past-due bills.

As laws change, we keep up to date with the latest laws passed by the Virginia legislature which could impact your business.

Richmond Lawyer FAQ

Helping you make the right decision
How Much Does It Cost To Get a Divorce?

That depends on why you are getting divorced. If your divorce is granted because you and your spouse have been separated for the requisite period of time, commonly called a “No-Fault Divorce” then it will cost a flat fee of $800.00. If you are seeking a “Fault Divorce” you will need to speak to an attorney about your circumstances before we can give you an estimate of the cost for your divorce.

What Is Estate Planning?

Estate Planning is the process of working with an advisor to discuss your goals and concerns, review your assets and how they are owned, consider your family structure and develop a plan that provides for the management and disposition of your assets upon your death or incapacity.

Learn More About Estate Planning
I Didn’t Have to Go to the Emergency Room, and the Pain Didn’t Really Start Until the Next Day. Is It Too Late Now?

No, it is not too late. It is common for pain to set in a day or two after the accident. Get to a doctor and get treated and call Cravens & Noll.

Will I Lose My Home?

It depends on the specifics of your case, but most of the time you can keep your home. If there is no or very little equity in the house (the value of the home minus the mortgage) you most likely will be able to keep your home. If you are facing a foreclosure on your house, a Chapter 13 bankruptcy has the potential to halt the foreclosure and save your home to allow past due mortgage payments to be paid over time.

Learn More About Bankruptcy
Can I Afford a Lawyer In My Personal Injury Case?

Yes. Actually there is no fee charged unless the attorney wins money for you. Injury cases are handled on a contingency basis with the attorney taking a percentage of the recovery.

Learn More About Personal Injury Law
I Was in a Hit And Run Accident. I Didn’t See the Plate On the Car that Hit Me and I Don’t Know Who It Was, Can I Still Sue?

Absolutely. In Virginia, hit and run accidents are far too frequent. You may still bring suit, or even settle your claim without a lawsuit against your own policy or the policy on the vehicle you were operating.
