Terri "Lisa" S. Andrews
"My Promise: I'm committed to making sure your interests are protected to the fullest extent of the law."
For more than 30 years, I've helped people realize their financial goals in our nation's capital. In January 2017, I brought those skills home – to where my heart is - the Middle Peninsula and the Northern Neck.
I've always been driven me by an unwavering belief that financial security and peace of mind shouldn't be reserved just for the lucky few. We are a nation of laws put into place to protect every citizen - regardless of his or her bank account balance. And whether you're buying your first home or setting up a trust for the next generation, I want to make sure our laws are working for you rather than against you.
As partner of Andrews & Andrews, PLLC and formerly as Deputy Assistant Secretary of the U.S. Treasury, I've advised CEOs, General Counsels and the Secretary of the Treasury on some of our nation's most pressing financial laws. At the same time, my years volunteering with the Women in Housing and Finance Foundation has given hundreds of homeless women - many of whom never had a savings or checking account - the ability to achieve financial independence and stability. Whether working for CEOs or for the economically disadvantaged, my goal has always been to empower my clients with the insight and the options they need to succeed.
When you know the ins and outs of the laws governing asset management, you can turn problems into opportunities. For estate planning, real estate transactions, and business formation and operation, I can show you how to maximize your assets and attain financial peace of mind both for today – and for future generations.
