About Lawyer John Crouch
John Crouch has practiced family law since 1995. Until 2024 he was at Crouch & Crouch in Arlington, a family firm that developed its international and inter-state focus by helping military, diplomatic, civil-service, expat, and immigrant families throughout Northern Virginia and beyond. He assists lawyers in other states and countries as a consultant, co-counsel, or expert witness on international and interstate family law. But more often, he represents clients in family situations — everything that happens before, during, after, or instead of marriage and divorce.
Realizing how damaging family litigation can be for clients and children, John got trained in family mediation, and starting in 2002 he worked with Jim Gross to launch the DMV’s first Collaborative Divorce group and trainings. Collaborative Divorce practitioners are family lawyers, financial advisors, and mental health professionals who pay attention to what clients are experiencing, and work together to improve the process in innovative ways, informed, but not bound, by “how things have always been done.” They are fearless advocates for their clients, but they advocate more effectively by listening to each other, listening to both clients, and working creatively and cooperatively with clients to develop win-win solutions.
