A stream located in Northumberland County, Mill Creek branches off of the Chesapeake Bay near the Virginia-Maryland line, and reaches Harryhogan, Lodge, Morrison's Corner, Stately Oak, Kinsale, Hyacinth, Shady Harbor Shores, Callao, and Lottsburg. The stream is open for fishing, and near hiking and mountain biking trails.
Our team's extensive knowledge of waterfront (riparian) property rights law, maritime and admiralty law, and environmental law has helped clients all across Virginia.

Reversing the VMRC's Decision to Build a Pier
Our team helped a client get a decision reversed by the Virginia Marine Resources Commission (VMRC). The client's neighbor began construction of a pier after approval from the VMRC, but we were able to prove that the neighbor supplied the VMRC with soundings that were not correct. Our team helped navigate these issues with the VMRC and now the pier, which would have been built right across the mouth of Kent Cove, is being removed.
