About Us

At Bank of the James, we’re committed to restoring your faith in banks. We combine our extensive financial knowledge with our deep understanding of the communities in which we live and work. We’re unencumbered by the layers of bureaucracy that plague large institutions. We make all of our decisions at the local level and embrace transparency throughout every interaction. Your bank should be your trusted partner, as often some of the most momentous life decisions – like buying a home, starting a business, or saving for your future – involve us.

We focus on relationships first. By getting to know you, we’re able to find solutions that let you meet your goals and fulfill your dreams. We’re creative and understanding, plus we have the flexibility to customize loans and provide financial solutions that suit your situation.

And finally, we have a phenomenal team. It’s as simple as that. Experienced, professional, and extremely approachable, our executives and staff are also immersed in their communities, where we donate time, energy, and expertise. As a community-minded bank, we strive to serve for good – we support over 250 organizations and non-profits, financially and otherwise. We consider this investment part of our responsibility to our communities and feel it is an honor to do so.
