Simple on its face, complicated in practice
On the face of it, Virginia FOIA is fairly simple. Public records and public meetings are open to the public unless an exemption applies. The law tells public bodies how to apply FOIA, and citizens can apply for an injunction or a writ of mandamus to enforce their Virginia FOIA rights. In practice, though, things are a little more complicated.
If your client has a Virginia FOIA case, turn to attorneys who can help. We can help you avoid the pitfalls of Virginia FOIA litigation and gain an edge in the courtroom.
