Angela Morehouse

Chief Operating Officer

Fairfax County Criminal Attorneys has appointed Angela Morehouse as the Chief Operating Officer in 2023. Previously the Family Law Division Lead, she played a key role in expanding the department’s attorney and paralegal teams. In her new position, Angela will oversee firm operations, spearhead growth in Personal Injury and Estate Planning, and lead strategic geographic expansions, particularly in Family and Criminal Law.

With over 13 years of litigation experience and over five years of it being at Fairfax County Criminal Attorneys, Angela has established herself as a highly skilled attorney. Her legal experience spans high-conflict family law cases and guardianship and fiduciary matters. She has also served as a Guardian ad Litem for children and incapacitated adults. 

Angela’s legal career began with a judicial clerkship under the Honorable William D. Hamblen of the Prince William County Circuit Court. Just before joining Fairfax County Criminal Attorneys, she led The Morehouse Law Firm, P.L.L.C., and was previously associated with Von Keller Law, P.C. 

Angela holds a Juris Doctor from William & Mary School of Law and graduated summa cum laude from Old Dominion University with a degree in Communications and a minor in Management. Her background in business and marketing will be instrumental in driving the firm’s operational and strategic initiatives.

While she will continue representing clients, especially in Estate and Personal Injury cases, her focus will shift toward firm leadership and expansion. Angela’s leadership, legal acumen, and commitment to growth position Fairfax County Criminal Attorneys for continued success.
