Owen & Owens

What Owen & Owens does

Owen & Owens PLC is a Virginia-based law firm founded in 2002 and headquartered at 15521 Midlothian Turnpike #300 in Midlothian, Virginia. The firm serves individuals and businesses across the greater Richmond metropolitan area — including Chesterfield County, Henrico County, and the broader Richmond region — through three primary practice areas: Family Law (divorce, child custody and visitation, child and spousal support, adoptions, prenuptial agreements, property settlements, collaborative law, and mediation); Personal Representation (personal injury including medical malpractice, motor vehicle, and product liability, plus estate planning, criminal defense, civil litigation, and real estate); and Commercial Representation (construction law, commercial litigation, corporate law, and real estate). It also formalizes alternative dispute resolution — collaborative law and mediation — as a distinct service line.

The firm is organized as a Professional Limited Liability Company under Virginia law and is led by founding partners W. Joseph Owen III, Mary Burkey Owens, and Samuel J. Kaufman, joined by partner Julie M. Cillo, plus associates including Mallory Brennan, Wyatt Taylor, Lindsay Dugan, Craig Mehall, Bennette Sharpe, Danielle Mehall, and newest hire Spencer Patterson (2024); total headcount sits in the 11–50 employee range. There is no proprietary technology platform — service delivery is handled by attorneys working in-person at the Midlothian office and in Virginia courts.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through billable professional services: clients pay a fee for initial consultation, are required to post an advanced fee/retainer upon retention, and are billed monthly against the retainer with replenishment as cases progress. The go-to-market motion is sales-led and largely reputation-driven — the firm relies on peer-recognition channels (Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers in America, Virginia Business Legal Elite, Martindale-Hubbell AV Preeminent), bar-association leadership and referral networks, community sponsorships, an active long-running website blog, and direct attorney consultation supported by an online contact form. There is no disclosed technology product, no public rate card, no M&A activity, no outside investment, and no published revenue figure.
