About Hannah
Hannah Vigoda earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Virginia in 2007. She went on to earn her J.D. from Duke University School of Law in 2012. Those years at two rigorous programs shaped a legal foundation grounded in close analysis and practical skills.
After law school she began practicing law. Early in her career she worked on a mix of transactional matters and disputes. She moved between client meetings and court appearances, learning to balance detail-oriented document work with the pressures of live advocacy. Colleagues describe a lawyer who prefers plain explanations over legalese and who prepares for hearings with careful notes rather than last-minute briefs.
Her approach to client work is direct. She breaks down complex issues into concrete choices and explains the risks on each side. That method has guided how she handles negotiations and courtroom matters alike. She is comfortable drafting agreements, resolving contract issues, and representing clients when matters proceed to litigation.
Vigoda’s practice also reflects attention to small-business concerns. She advises owners on routine transactions, contractual disputes, and practical compliance questions. For individual clients she provides counsel on common civil matters and helps map out options rather than promising single solutions. The work involves both short-term problem solving and planning to avoid future disputes.
Outside the office she has kept close ties to legal education and the communities that shaped her. Her time at Duke and Virginia continues to inform how she explains the law to clients. She prepares clients for what to expect in court and what settlement talks may entail. In meetings she aims to make the path forward clear, even when the outcome is uncertain.
Vigoda practices from Vigoda Law Office. She continues to handle civil litigation, transactional matters and client counseling in her current practice.
