   DO ALL THREATS GUARANTEE A PROTECTIVE ORDER IN VIRGINIA?
   
   Although Virginia code includes “threat” in the definition of family abuse,
   the courts require more than indirect or implied threats to grant a
   protective order.

   COLLECTING ON A JUDGEMENT AGAINST A LICENSED VEHICLE DEALER IN VIRGINIA WHO
   COMMITTED FRAUD
   
   The traditional stereotype of the “shady used car salesman” did not become a
   stereotype without some basis in fact, and many consumers have suffered
   losses because they placed themselves in the hands of the wrong auto
   salesperson, broker, or dealership.  There are, however, protections in the
   law to assist a consumer who has been damaged by fraud or defalcation in the
   process of purchasing a vehicle.

   HOW DO I PIERCE THE CORPORATE VEIL OF A VIRGINIA BUSINESS TO HOLD AN
   INDIVIDUAL OWNER RESPONSIBLE FOR MY DAMAGES?
   
   Although the benefits of incorporation include shareholder immunity from suit
   in most cases, what happens when someone uses their business’s corporate
   status as a sword to commit fraud, rather than a shield to avoid contractual
   liability?

   HOW DO I LEGALLY CHANGE MY NAME IN VIRGINIA?
   
   Do you want to change your legal name? If you are an adult over the age of 18
   and you want to change your name, you may be able to do so by filing a
   petition within the County and State of which you reside. If you are not
   incarcerated, on probation, incapacitated, or required to register your name
   with the Sex Offender and Crimes Against Minors Registry, changing your name
   can be accomplished relatively simply.

   WHAT HAPPENS IF PARENTS DO NOT AGREE ON AN IMPORTANT MEDICAL DECISION FOR
   THEIR CHILD?
   
   If the Court determines that the parents are not able to make a joint
   decision that the Court believes is in the best interest of the child after
   weighing the factors, the Court will  likely order sole legal custody to one
   parent to make the decision or give the parent that the Court determines is
   most likely to make the legal decision that is in line with the child's best
   interest the legal decision making authority over that particular medical
   decision.

   CAN I MOVE OR RELOCATE OUT OF VIRGINIA WITH MY CHILD? 
   
   In determining whether to permit a relocation, the Court will look at what is
   best for your child.  The burden is on the parent who wants to relocate to
   show that the move is in the child’s best interest and that the move will not
   significantly negatively impact the other parent’s relationship with the
   child.
