MCLEAN, Va., Jan. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As we continue to grow and evolve, and with the retirement of Kevin Robb from the firm, we're proud to announce that beginning January 2026, our firm will be known as Jones Burke, PLLC. The new name reflects both our history and our future. It honors founder Susanne Jones and long-time partner Elizabeth Burke, who joined the firm in 2012, as well as our fellow partner Jean Dickman.

"We remain committed to providing the counsel and results our clients have relied on for nearly two decades, and to the values that have always defined us: legal and technical excellence, collaboration, and opportunity."
