Mr. Faust is the founder and owner of Old Dominion Trial Lawyers. He focuses

his litigation practice on primarily large-scale Circuit Court litigation matters

covering a broad range of legal topics. Mr. Faust holds a degree in history

from Old Dominion University and immediately began law school at the

American University, Washington College of Law, after obtaining his degree.

Mr. Faust can assist his clients to negotiate and litigate various State and

Federal Court matters. Mr. Faust is licensed to practice in all State courts for

Virginia and the Federal District Courts for the Eastern and Western Districts

of Virginia.

Mr. Faust began his career clerking for a civil litigation law firm in Silver

Spring, Maryland, during law school. Once he became licensed to practice law

in 2020, his career as an attorney started at a reputable firm in Virginia Beach

handling nursing home negligence and personal injury cases. He then moved

to Northern Virginia to capitalize on an opportunity to serve as first-chair on

personal injury trials to gain trial experience. From there, Mr. Faust switched

gears and worked exclusively as a medical malpractice defense attorney

representing physicians in lawsuits filed against them by patients. In that

position, Mr. Faust participated in numerous 3+ day jury trials as a member of

a trial attorney team, which catapulted his legal career.

Shortly after returning to Virginia Beach, on January 5, 2024, Mr. Faust

opened Old Dominion Trial Lawyers with one client and a laptop. He has since

grown Old Dominion Trial Lawyers to its current size of three attorneys, a

paralegal, and a legal assistant. When he started Old Dominion Trial Lawyers,

Mr. Faust expanded his practice to include corporate/ business disputes,

construction disputes, Virginia Consumer Protection Act claims, and

landlord/tenant matters. He was nominated as a Top Lawyer of Coastal

Virginia Magazine for 2026.

In his free time, Mr. Faust enjoys hunting, fishing, and spending time with his

pets Mako (a golden retriever) and Mako’s cat brothers, Scallop and Oyster.

Mr. Faust is also an avid Florida Gators and DC professional sports fan,

particularly the Washington Nationals.
