About G. "Rex"

Rex focuses his practice primarily in the criminal and family arenas. He firmly believes client-centered representation. As such, the client’s needs are the primary driver of the course of litigation. Once the client’s needs and wishes are established, Rex Flynn will zealously work (with integrity) to obtain the desired result, often with innovative solutions.

A graduate of George Mason University’s School of Law, Mr. Flynn served multiple terms in student government, the Black Law Students Association (regional and local), the American Bar Association (the 11th Circuit Lt. Governor of Diversity), the Honor Committee and as an editor for the Journal of Law, Economics and Policy. Rex is also a proud alum of his beloved Hampton University, where he studied psychology, and was involved in the Concert Choir. As an attorney, Rex is a member of several bar associations where he practices, and has served on the Board of Directors for the Arlington County Bar Association.

Rex also gives back to the community in service organizations as well. He serves as the President-Elect of the Arlington County Bar Association, and also serves as Secretary and Judicial Selection Chair for the Northern Virginia Black Attorney’s Association (NOVABAA) as well as the Chief Legal Officer of Change Makers United. Additionally, Rex was recently selected as SuperLawyer 2019 Rising Star. In his spare time, Rex enjoys cheering for his beloved NY Knicks, his hometown Redskins, and playing with his dog Bam Bam.

Review G. "Rex" Flynn

amazing service!!

Posted by

Rex was extremely responsive and professional throughout this entire process! I know it was not easy to deal with a case during COVID-19 and with all the court closings but Rex did everything in his power to move this action along and get the desired outcome and for that I will never be more grateful! I truly truly appreciate everything you have done for me in these past few months!
