Winslow, McCurry & MacCormac

Winslow, McCurry & MacCormac is as a six-attorney, 55% women-owned firm in Midlothian, specializing in business law, bankruptcy, family law, probate, and wills and estates. Established 13 years ago with 14 employees, this family-oriented practice focuses on delivering goal-oriented legal counsel while maintaining strong client relationships.

Under the leadership of managing partner Sarah McCurry and partner Erika MacCormac, the firm has seen noteworthy revenue growth in recent years. The firm also takes pride in redefining legal practice expectations, proving that empathy and kindness enhance rather than compromise professional effectiveness. They recognize that clients often seek assistance during life’s most difficult moments, making compassionate representation essential to their service philosophy.

Despite facing early challenges including presumptions about professional roles and occasional criticism for prioritizing client relationships over fees, the partners have persevered by demonstrating that emotional intelligence strengthens legal strategy, particularly in family law matters. The firm continues to challenge the notion that it’s always been done this way.

The firm actively supports women attorneys by creating a family-friendly environment where children can visit offices during evening work sessions, enabling long-term work-life integration rather than demanding perfect daily balance. This approach supports talented professionals in both career advancement and family responsibilities, fostering the next generation’s understanding of professional flexibility.

Recent accomplishments include building a strong female team of attorneys and staff while proving that legal careers and motherhood are compatible rather than competing choices. McCurry has served 15 years on the Cinderella Dreams board  and engages in mentorship work. MacCormac participates on the Metro Women’s Bar Board, volunteers with the Virginia State Bar, and mentors attorneys pursuing guardian ad litem appointments and court-appointed counsel roles.
