Jon Haley
Associate General Counsel
Virginia REALTORS
As Staff Counsel for Virginia REALTORS®, Jon wears many hats. He works with the rest of the legal team to teach, create podcasts and legal videos, and even draft legal briefs for the Supreme Court of Virginia. After graduating from the University of Richmond School of Law, Jon clerked for a Circuit Court judge and then worked for a large claims administration firm in town. Those jobs gave him a wide array of legal experiences, which he has been putting to use helping protect REALTORS® since 2017. As busy as he is with work, he is equally as busy having fun outside of work! He lends his guitar skills to his band, Church Hill Music Company. The Atlanta Braves and UVA sports (2019 National Champs!) play a big role in his life—no matter how painful some seasons may be! With his wife, Mandy, by his side, they enjoy exploring new restaurants. Southern and Indian cuisines rank on his top favorite food list.
