Brooke R. Hannah

Ms. Hannah’s primary practice areas include real estate development, corporate law, estate administration, and estate planning. Ms. Hannah also assists in providing general legal counsel to many of the firm’s local government clients. 

Since joining Litten & Sipe, Ms. Hannah has enjoyed working with many clients to develop both simple and complex solutions for their estate planning needs, including the use of wills, trusts, transfer certificates, transfer-on-death deeds, advance medical directives, and powers of attorney. After ensuring Ms. Hannah understands her clients’ estate planning goals, she uses her experience with corporate law, real estate law, non-probate transfers, and traditional estate planning tools to develop a comprehensive plan to meet those goals.

Ms. Hannah has also helped her clients navigate through the entire process of both residential and commercial real estate transactions. From the commencement of a transaction to the conclusion, Ms. Hannah has provided assistance to her clients by reviewing plats, reviewing title reports, examining title issues, developing and implementing plans to resolve title issues, communicating with banks and title companies, and drafting documents necessary to complete a transaction. These documents include contracts, deeds, easements, certificates of satisfaction, deeds of trust, modification agreements, and promissory notes. Furthermore, Ms. Hannah has helped many clients subdivide their property through the use of family divisions, non-family divisions and grantor-to-self divisions.

Outside of work, Ms. Hannah enjoys spending time with her family, spectating at her twin daughters’ sports events, and exploring the Shenandoah Valley.
