Faisal Moghul, Managing Partner

Faisal Moghul is widely regarded as one of Virginia’s leading business attorneys, recognized for his extensive background in business formation and structuring, high-stakes litigation involving direct and derivative lawsuits, asset and stock sales, valuation and buyout disputes, and strategic asset protection. In 2023 and 2024, he was named one of America’s Top 100 Civil Defense Litigators and recognized as Virginia’s “Go-To” Business Lawyer. He has made the Super Lawyers Rising Stars shortlist every year since 2016, and in 2023, Virginia Lawyer Magazine acknowledged him as one of the Commonwealth's foremost educators in business and real estate law. His impact in the courtroom includes leading a litigation team in 2024 to secure a landmark $565,000 judgment after a four-day jury trial in Fairfax County Circuit Court.

A trusted resource for high-net-worth individuals, startups, emerging corporations, LLCs, and partnerships, Mr. Moghul routinely handles complex business and real estate matters. In 2023, he served as speaker and moderator at the Virginia CLE’s Annual Small Business Law Institute, presenting on critical LLC operating agreement provisions, and in 2024, he returned to discuss charging orders and asset protection strategies. As a member of the American Bar Association’s Committee on LLCs and Unincorporated Associations, his in-depth knowledge of LLCs, S-Corps, C-Corps, and limited partnerships enables him to craft sophisticated agreements that safeguard clients’ interests. Having overseen more than 100 high-value transactions across technology, real estate, government contracting, and retail, he has managed multimillion-dollar buyouts and redemptions for both majority and minority stakeholders.

Mr. Moghul is also known for significant successes in business and real estate litigation, including derivative lawsuits and claims involving breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, and defamation. His work in real estate litigation encompasses construction defects, easement and boundary line disputes, real estate agent and broker representation, and purchase and sale contract disputes. In 2023, he co-presented a CLE seminar on real estate broker liability in Virginia, underscoring his role as a leading voice on real estate agent and broker defense. His extensive writings include a 2021 publication with the American Law Institute, “Caveat Emptor vs. Seller Disclosure in Residential Real Property Conveyances,” which offers forward-looking insights into purchase and sale laws. This comprehensive command of case law and regulations has resulted in multiple settlements and verdicts exceeding one million dollars.
