A Family Tradition of Legal Excellence
The Law Office of Wood & Wood, P.C. represents a legacy of legal service deeply rooted in the Richmond, Virginia community. Founded in 1981 by the husband-and-wife team of Andrew W.

Wood, who joined the practice in 2010. Located on Fitzhugh Avenue in the Near West End, just off Staples Mill Road, the firm offers a warm, approachable atmosphere that stands in stark contrast to impersonal corporate firms.

Whether you need to find a lawyer for a traffic violation, a divorce, or to draft a will, Wood & Wood provides the personalized attention and aggressive representation you deserve.
Criminal and Traffic Defense
A significant portion of the firm's practice is dedicated to Criminal and Traffic Defense. Andrew B.C. Wood, a former intern with the Chesterfield Commonwealth's Attorney, brings a prosecutor's insight to the defense table. He has successfully handled thousands of cases, ranging from speeding tickets and DUI/DWI charges to serious felonies like drug possession and assault. The firm understands that a criminal charge can have a devastating impact on your future, and they adopt a ”never quit” attitude to protect your record and your freedom. They are well-versed in the local courts of Richmond, Henrico, Chesterfield, and Hanover, ensuring you have a knowledgeable advocate by your side.
