On July 1, 1974, Joel Birken, Jon Broome and the late Jim Rees founded Rees, Broome
& Birken, PC, in Tysons, Virginia. The three shared the vision of offering superior legal
representation in a friendly, relaxed environment in the Northern Virginia suburbs of
Washington, D.C. Forty-five years later, we still operate under those same principals. Today,
Rees Broome has grown to be one of Virginia’s top law firms, with 50 attorneys and proven
expertise in the areas of civil litigation, business, tax, estates, employment, construction defect
liability, homeowners’ and condominium associations, zoning, commercial real estate and
creditors’ rights work. In addition to our main office in Tysons, we have growing offices in
Leesburg, Virginia and Bethesda, Maryland.
For 45 years, our clients have trusted our ability to lead with knowledge, wisdom and
confidence.
We believe a successful legal practice provides cutting-edge legal services without losing its connection to the community in which it resides. Our participation in Fairfax County’s civic and social scene provides insight into the complex processes that govern its business, judicial and legislative worlds. Being connected to the community adds significant value to the management of our clients’ legal affairs. Striving to stay ahead of the legal curve in our representation of clients in the areas of business law, civil and construction litigation, HOA/condominium associations, tax, estate planning and administration and real estate gives us the knowledge, skill and agility to create innovative and strategic solutions to our clients’ legal challenges.
