About Mr. Brad
Mr. Brad Butterworth graduated from West Virginia University College of Law in 1981. He entered the legal field at a time when the profession was changing fast. He built a career that has included courtroom work, association involvement and community service.
Early in his professional life, Butterworth joined several legal organizations. Records show memberships beginning in 1984 in the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association and the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He is also listed as a member of both the Virginia Bar Association and the West Virginia Bar Association, each noting membership from 1984 to the present. Those affiliations suggest steady engagement with both state and national legal communities over decades.
His community involvement extends beyond bar groups. In 2009 he held a board membership with Hopewell Emergency Crew, Inc. That role points to an interest in local civic organizations and public safety initiatives. It also indicates activity outside strictly legal circles, a pattern common among lawyers who combine practice with community commitments.
Butterworth’s jurisdictional credentials include Virginia. Public records list him practicing in that state, and his long-standing association memberships align with a practice anchored in the mid-Atlantic region. He has experience in criminal defense organizations and trial lawyer groups, which indicates courtroom experience and familiarity with litigation procedures.
Employment listings identify an office role described as Traffic Lawyer. That designation typically involves handling moving violations, license issues, and related municipal or administrative matters. It sits alongside his membership in criminal defense circles and trial lawyer associations, suggesting a practice that touches both minor offenses and more serious matters handled by trial counsel.
Across decades of membership and occasional public service, Butterworth’s professional profile is that of a lawyer who remained active in professional associations while maintaining a practice in Virginia. He has been continuously involved in state bar activities since the mid-1980s and took on board responsibilities in the local community in 2009. His career combines association work, community engagement and courtroom-related practice.
He currently practices law in Virginia, where his work includes traffic-related matters and representation consistent with his criminal defense and trial law affiliations.
