About Courtney L
Courtney L Armstrong grew up in Virginia and followed a traditional academic path into the law. She earned undergraduate studies at the University of Virginia and later attended Appalachian School of Law, where she completed her legal training. Those years supplied classroom lessons and a series of practical internships that shaped the early arc of her career.
As a law student she spent time in private and public settings. In 2008 she interned at Capital One Bank and worked with Troutman Sanders LLP on a Virginia Tobacco Indemnification Fund placement. She later returned to the bench and bar during two 2010 internships, one at McGuireWoods and another in the Henry County Circuit Court, part of Virginia’s 21st Judicial Circuit. The varied experiences exposed her to transactional matters, court processes and the routines of civil practice.
After law school she moved into private practice. Records show she began practicing as a lawyer in 2013 with Armstrong and Armstrong, Lawyers at Law. Around the same time she joined the Virginia State Bar and became active in the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association. Over the years she added roles on boards outside the courthouse. Since 2015 she has served on the Regional Advisory Board of the Community Foundation Serving Western Virginia and on the Board of Directors for Piedmont Arts. She also joined the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association’s Board of Governors in 2018 and took on committee work in the association’s young trial lawyers, legal education and public affairs groups beginning in 2019.
Her peers see her work through organizational involvement. Long-standing memberships in the Virginia State Bar and the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association underline that orientation. Committee work in legal education suggests attention to courtroom practice and professional development. Participation in public affairs points to an interest in how legal issues intersect with community and policy conversations.
Courtney Armstrong’s path combines classroom training, internships in both corporate and court settings, years in private practice and steady civic involvement. That combination has kept her engaged in Virginia’s legal circles and regional nonprofit governance. She currently practices at The Armstrong Law Office, representing clients in matters heard in Virginia courts.
