About Kristina
Kristina Spitler earned her Juris Doctor from William & Mary Marshall-Wythe School of Law in 1988. She completed her legal education at one of Virginia’s older law schools and entered practice at a time of change in the region. The year on her diploma marks the starting point of a long career in the Prince William County legal community.
Her professional life has been tied to Vanderpool, Frostick & Nishanian, P.C., where she serves as a partner. At the firm she has taken on management responsibilities alongside client work. Colleagues describe her as deliberate in approach and steady under pressure. Over the years she has held roles that required both courtroom presence and organizational oversight.
Spitler has been active in bar leadership for decades. She currently serves as president of the Prince William County Bar Association, a role that places her at the center of local legal education and professional standards. Before this she led statewide and local groups. She was president of the Virginia Women Lawyers Association from 2009 to 2010. In the same general period she served as president of Prince William SHRM, Inc., from 2009 to 2010. Those presidencies show a pattern of peers entrusting her with governance and program direction.
Her civic engagement extends beyond professional organizations. She was chairman of Leadership Prince William from 2010 to 2012. During that same two-year span she was president of the Center for the Arts of Greater Manassas/Prince William County. Those positions involved fundraising, board management, and public outreach. They also reflect a long-standing interest in connecting the practice of law with community institutions.
Spitler balances firm duties with association obligations and public service. She remains a visible presence in regional legal circles and local nonprofit boards. Her current practice focuses on client representation at Vanderpool, Frostick & Nishanian, P.C., where she combines firm leadership with ongoing involvement in bar and community organizations.
