Experience

Overview

John represents closely-held business, their owners, individuals, and their families involving taxation, estate planning, probate and estate administration, wills and trusts, and business succession planning.  John has worked with clients to:
 

  • Prepare last wills and testaments, trust agreements, advance medical directives, and powers of attorney;
  • Administer estates and trusts;
  • Negotiate with the Internal Revenue Service;
  • Plan for optimal tax treatment; and
  • Form and manage businesses.


Prior to joining Rees Broome, John spent three years at Alvarez & Marsal in Washington, D.C., concentrating his practice on state and local, federal, and international tax compliance and consulting for individuals and businesses.  He then joined Ritzert & Leyton, PC (now known as Gombos Leyton, PC), where he began to focus his practice on estate planning and administration and tax planning and controversy.

In addition to being licensed as an attorney in Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia, John holds credentials as a Certified Public Accountant and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™.  It is with this background that John approaches all of his clients’ needs, from a multifaceted approach that allows him to view their situations from a variety of different perspectives.

When John is not working with clients at Rees Broome, he is serving as a JAG Officer with the West Virginia Air National Guard, 130th Airlift Wing, based in Charleston, West Virginia.  He enjoys serving his fellow airman with their estate planning and other needs, enabling him to broaden the scope of his law practice while serving his country.

John is also a former Adjunct Professor of Accounting at Northern Virginia Community College, where he enjoyed teaching his students federal income taxation.  Additionally, John is a former Co-Chair of the Tax Section of the Fairfax Bar Association, among many leadership positions he has held in the community.
