ABOUT BATTLEFIELD LAW
The Evolution of
Battlefield Law Group, PLLC.
Nicole Naum is the founding partner of Battlefield Law Group, where she leads with strategic insight and unwavering dedication to her clients. She believes that every person deserves to be heard and treated with respect, no matter the charge. At Battlefield Law Group, Nicole and her team approach each case with personalized care, clear communication, and a commitment to protecting your future.
The story of Battlefield Law Group, PLLC is one of growth, resilience, and a relentless commitment to justice. In 2015, Nicole H. Naum, Esq., founded her first firm as Naum Law Firm, just 6 years after passing the Virginia Bar. That solo venture soon evolved into the dynamic partnership Naum Estevez, PLLC, where Ms. Naum and her team built a strong reputation in Criminal Defense, Traffic, DUI, Civil, and Family Law.
In 2023, with a clear vision and renewed purpose, Nicole rebranded the practice as Battlefield Law Group, PLLC, focusing exclusively on Criminal Defense, DUI and Traffic cases. The name “Battlefield” is more than just a nod to the historic battlefields of Old Town Manassas—it reflects the firm’s unwavering dedication to fighting for its clients with tenacity, skill, and heart.
At Battlefield Law Group, it’s not about whose name is on the door, it’s about the people we serve. We believe in standing shoulder to shoulder with our clients, navigating their legal battles with integrity, determination, and a deep sense of responsibility.
