Although originally from Long Island, I grew up in Chesapeake, Virginia. After attending the University of Virginia and the Charleston School of Law, I was happy to return to the Tidewater area to begin my legal career. I love the work that I do as an associate at Foley & Foley, P.C. From employment work to family law, I find deep satisfaction in working closely with individuals to successfully resolve their legal issues.
Community outreach is exceptionally important to me. I am a member of the Norfolk Portsmouth Bar Association and serve on the Bench Bar Committee. In addition, I am actively involved with the Hampton Roads Society for Human Resource Management and am on the board of the Ghent Dog Park Association.
I live in the Ghent section of Norfolk, Virginia with my rescue dog, Margo. In my spare time I enjoy reading, cooking, and practicing yoga. A true beach girl at heart, I can frequently be found at the beach or enjoying one of the many excellent restaurants in Norfolk. I'm an avid sports fan and concert-goer and have a passion for travel - I'm always planning my next adventure.

My experience with Ms. Ruege was wonderful.
Ms. Ruege paid careful attention to my work issue, suggested a course of action, sent a demand letter suggesting positive outcomes in exchange for the cooperation of my employer, and the following week, my employer notified me that the outcome I had requested, which they had denied, would now be gra...

After my initial consultation with Andrea Ruege and for the first time (after over a year being represented by another attorney), I felt like someone really cared about what I've been through.
