Courtney B. Harden

Courtney B. Harden is a partner at Briglia Hundley in Tysons, Virginia, with nearly two decades of litigation experience. More than half of her practice involves eminent domain, where she represents condemning authorities and landowners in condemnation and inverse-condemnation matters. Her work also includes real estate disputes involving partition, prescriptive easements, community association covenants, and zoning, along with broader civil litigation concerning contracts, construction defects, and personal injury.

Harden earned a J.D. from George Mason University School of Law in 2002 after receiving a B.A. in Foreign Affairs from the University of Virginia in 1996. Her education provided a foundation for litigation that requires legal research, written advocacy, factual development, and analysis of property rights. Those skills support her work in eminent domain and other real estate disputes involving ownership, access, land use, and valuation-related concerns.

Harden has handled matters involving breach of contract, medical malpractice, construction defects, personal injury, and real property disputes. Her administrative experience includes proceedings before the Virginia Workers’ Compensation Commission, Virginia Employment Commission, and State Corporation Commission. In real estate litigation, she works with landowners and condemning authorities on property-taking issues and handles disputes over partition, easements, association covenants, and zoning requirements.

Courtney B. Harden is admitted to practice in Virginia and before the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Her practice combines eminent domain with broader real estate and civil litigation experience. She approaches property disputes with an understanding of court procedure, administrative forums, contractual issues, and land-use concerns, helping clients address contested ownership, access, development, and compensation questions through litigation or other resolution processes.
