I appreciate Mr. Soldan’s assistance and would recommend him to anyone.

I had the pleasure of working with Tom Soldan, and can't recommend him highly enough. He was committed in going above and beyond to achieve the absolute best results.
He didn't just meet expectations - he exceeded them, delivering results even better than expected.
If you're looking for someone who will fight for you, Tom is the one.

I had a Traffic Case which was resolved by Eric Demetriades, the best lawyer in DMV. I was super nervous about going to court for the first time, but Mr.Eric Demetriades was Super chill, quick, efficient, confident, and exactly the person you'd want to stand up for you in tough situations. Very blessed that I found him, he saved me from a bad situation, I trusted him throughout the whole process, and I highly recommend him.

Attorney Wilfred Yeargan is absolutely excellent. He explained the process to obtain the best possible outcome for my traffic violation very clearly (this is my first ever experience seeking legal representation) and I am very grateful for his help. He secured the best possible outcome for me and I would highly recommend his expertise. Thank you sir!

I hired Sheryl Shane for a criminal matter. From beginning to end she worked tirelessly to obtain a dismissal. She was very knowledgeable and did a wonderful job in court. She explained the whole process at all times throughout the proceedings. I could not have asked for more. A positive result!
I also wanted to add that I feel Sheryl is extremely professional and very personable.
I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone that I knew, including my friends if they ever were in a situation that they needed a criminal lawyer her expertise is a 10 in my book.
Thank Miss Shane .
You’ve helped me personally turn my life around.

I hired Peter's law firm for a speeding ticket in Virginia. They not only saved me the trouble of having to go there for court, they gave me specifics of what I should do before the court date.
They were excellent at communicating with me and Rebecca Peters talked with me any time I needed her.
She represented me in court and had my ticket significantly reduced ! With a minimal fine.
I highly recommend her and her firm.

There aren’t enough stars or a rating system sufficient to capture what Ariel and the team at Livesay and Myers did for me. Everyone from the front desk to the paralegals worked as a seamless unit, led by Ariel’s steady and capable hands. With a holistic approach to the system and an uncanny ability to dictate positive outcomes through the strategic application of soft and hard approaches, she was at all times focused, prepared, unhurried, and resolute while remaining fluid and dynamic. I felt listened to, supported, and I trusted in our eventual success. A heartfelt thank you from myself and my son to Ariel, Brittany, Tracy and the team.

I originally hired Livesay & Myers based off their Google reviews I read when I got served divorce papers. I can say that I had nothing but a positive experience with the firm.
Ms. Stone Swart and Ms. Humiston were true professionals for the entire length of the case (which seemed like a lifetime!) however they stuck with me till the end. They were empathetic when needed but they also did a great job of keeping me in line when I was disagreeing with a certain path ("Look Scott, this is what the law states..."). Yup, got it!
Ms. Humiston was amazingly organized and helped keep me on target for due dates as well as explain what certain things meant.
Ms. Stone Swart was a pleasure to work with. She knew every inch of the law inside and out. Though my case got difficult (and I even gave her an escape route!) she stuck with me till the end.
I would not hesitate to work with both Dani and Amanda and the firm again.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with this awesome team TWICE! Both times I received amazing results from their work.
I have worked with a handful of attorney’s in the past and I’ve never had a good experience. Never felt truly supported and secure in their ability to represent me.
Alyssa Grzesiak, Ariel Baniowski, and Brittany Gordon assisted me with my Family Law case. They were responsive, thorough, and supportive. They were so easy to talk to, showed they cared in many ways, and were just awesome representing me in court and going to bat for my kids best interest. They have earned my business for life!

He and his team are quite knowledgeable, and they did a great job of making me feel at ease. Monika (paralegal) was also a huge asset in assisting throughout this process. Huge thanks to her!

Shirley Chim was an absolute rock star in helping modify my original custody agreement to something that worked better for my family. She was helpful on so many levels and I can say she truly cares about her clients. I don't think I would've had the same outcome with anyone else. Shirley not only helped me with the modification, but she taught me how to deal with a narcissistic ex which was worth its weight in gold.

I reached out to this attorney for a consultation, hoping to get some guidance on my legal concerns. Unfortunately, I was met with a surprising attitude that left me feeling dismissed. Instead of the professional support I anticipated, I felt more like an inconvenience. I’m genuinely sad that my experience was so different from what other reviewers seem to have had. I was really hoping for a helpful consultation, but instead, I walked away feeling frustrated and undervalued. I can’t recommend this attorney based on my experience.

I recently worked with Zach Deubler at Carmichael Ellis & Brock, PLLC, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the onset of my case to its dismissal, Zach demonstrated an extraordinary level of professionalism, expertise, and dedication.
From our first meeting, Zach was incredibly approachable and empathetic, making a stressful situation much more manageable. His ability to clearly explain legal procedures and strategies provided a sense of clarity and calm. Throughout the case, Zach's guidance was invaluable. He was always available to answer questions, offer advice, and provide support, which was greatly appreciated.
His attention to detail and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome set Zach apart. His efforts led to the dismissal of my case, an outcome that I am immensely grateful for. It was evident that Zach deeply understands the law and genuinely cares about his client's well-being.
His support extended beyond just legal advice. Zach was a pillar of strength in a challenging time, offering reassurance and a positive outlook. His confidence and expertise were a constant source of comfort.
Zach is a remarkable attorney who goes above and beyond for his clients. His combination of legal understanding, compassion, and dedication is rare and truly commendable. Anyone needing legal assistance would be fortunate to have him on their side. Thank you, Zach, for your outstanding service and pivotal role in resolving my case.

I cannot express enough gratitude to Roop Law, and Marcus Greene in particular, for providing exceptional representation during my custody battle. My situation was complex, involving the potential for international visitation/custody for my special needs child. From the very beginning, the team at Roop Law demonstrated a deep understanding of the nuances involved in my case. Marcus showed care about my situation while always being direct about how the courts are likely to view things based on current law. He is very knowledgable, responsive, and organized, which made me feel like I was in good hands through this difficult process. Thanks to Marcus' expertise, dedication, and strategic approach, I was awarded sole physical and legal custody of my child.
Roop Law gave me the peace of mind I needed during such a stressful time. If you are facing a custody battle, especially one with high stakes like mine, I highly recommend Roop Law. They are truly the best in the field and have made an immeasurable difference in my life.

I don’t even know where to begin… Let me start by saying I just got back from spending five days in Paris with my one year old daughter (yesterday) ALL thanks to Marcus!!
After the mother of my daughter and I broke up I already knew I was going to need an attorney sooner or later. After our break up the mother was the one in control of when I can see my daughter, the scheduling and the time. It was only a matter of time before things got out of hand. We were doing every two days and every other weekend. I’m sorry but I want more time with my daughter! Only two days in a row and every other weekend wasn’t working for me.
When things got out to hand, I went almost two months without seeing my daughter! I don’t wish the feeling of waking up everyday and not knowing when you are going to see your child again on anyone. Good thing I had already met with Marcus before things got out of hand so he already knew what was going on and was able to work on it right away once I told him things went downhill.
The first day I met Marcus he gave me a cellphone number I can text him at. I promise you when Marcus gave me his number and said “text me whenever you need me” he meant it! Marcus always replied even on weekends, holidays and nights! He is your attorney 24/7.
Marcus represented me for both the Custody/Visitation order & Child Support order.
Thanks to Marcus the judge/court gave us a really good visiting/custody schedule where both mom and dad can spend quality time with the child.
Marcus is licensed in multiple counties and that was very important in my case because ever since my daughter was born we lived in one county and the county where the mother moved back with her family is a different county.
Marcus is my “new” forever best friend and when my daughter gets older she will thank him for fighting for her father! Because of Marcus my daughter gets to spend a lot of quality time with her father!
Call your guardian angel today! Marcus will not let you down. He will not tell you what you want to hear, he will tell you what it really is.
Marcus once again thank you for representing me and for doing an amazing job! Thank you!

Hiring Andrew Taylor as my attorney was the best decision I made when filing for divorce. My case was complicated, including numerous filings and hearings leading to a multi-day trial related to my divorce, child custody and support. He also handled my J&DR Court hearings to secure a Protective Order for my children and I. Andrew knows the law thoroughly and his experience in the courtroom meant he gave me very sound advice. After trying diligently to settle with the other side, it became clear we would have to go to trial. This meant months strategically prioritizing and timing the work on discovery, depositions, expert witnesses, coordination with the Guardian Ad Litem (GAL), minor children testifying to the judge in chambers, and supplementary legal negotiations. Andrew and his paralegal, Shannon, expertly managed all of this. They are truly good people and a delightful team: I trust them implicitly.
Prior to my divorce trial, I presented Andrew with a 20-point list of what I wanted the judge to grant me. Andrew’s deep understanding of what the court would be looking for with regard to the best interest of my children, quantifying asset/debt values, jurisdiction, case law, & how that lined up with the fact patterns in my case meant success: what the judge granted me after the trial was beyond my expectations.
Even though I was the one who chose to file for divorce, it was daunting emotionally. Sometimes I just wanted to give up the fight for what I knew I was legally allowed. However, Andrew Taylor is a thoughtful, empathetic person who clearly sees his role as one to help families navigate when they are facing hard realities. Andrew did everything to advocate for me & my children. My family & I have gone from surviving to thriving; we now live in a peaceful, joyful home.
I highly recommend you speak with Andrew Taylor; whether your case is a simple one or more complex, to make sure all issues are properly addressed now and for your future.

My experience with this firm was horrendous!! I was baited during the custody consultation to feel as though I had a very strong case for full custody. However, once I provided the required retainment for representation, I simply became a statistic. Andrew consistently pushed for me to just accept opposing party offers of every other weekend, simply because it is the "standard" and had no concern of really fighting for me or my daughter's 'equal' time together. The goal of this firm is to drag clients through the system as slowly as possible, for their maximum profit!.. I was astonished to find that for my final bill, which only included the prep and appearance for my 20 min support hearing that should have only involved plugging my income numbers into a worksheet, I had accumulated the same amount of changes, nearly $7000, as I had for all of the work in the months leading up to the custody hearing. Don't make my mistake....You'll probably fair just as well, if not better, representing yourself and saving your kid's college fund.

Hiring Andrew Taylor as my attorney was the best decision I made when filing for divorce. My case was complicated, including numerous filings and hearings leading to a multi-day trial related to my divorce, child custody and support. He also handled my J&DR Court hearings to secure a Protective Order for my children and I. Andrew knows the law thoroughly and his experience in the courtroom meant he gave me very sound advice. After trying diligently to settle with the other side, it became clear we would have to go to trial. This meant months strategically prioritizing and timing the work on discovery, depositions, expert witnesses, coordination with the Guardian Ad Litem (GAL), minor children testifying to the judge in chambers, and supplementary legal negotiations. Andrew and his paralegal, Shannon, expertly managed all of this. They are truly good people and a delightful team: I trust them implicitly.
Prior to my divorce trial, I presented Andrew with a 20-point list of what I wanted the judge to grant me. Andrew’s deep understanding of what the court would be looking for with regard to the best interest of my children, quantifying asset/debt values, jurisdiction, case law, & how that lined up with the fact patterns in my case meant success: what the judge granted me after the trial was beyond my expectations.
Even though I was the one who chose to file for divorce, it was daunting emotionally. Sometimes I just wanted to give up the fight for what I knew I was legally allowed. However, Andrew Taylor is a thoughtful, empathetic person who clearly sees his role as one to help families navigate when they are facing hard realities. Andrew did everything to advocate for me & my children. My family & I have gone from surviving to thriving; we now live in a peaceful, joyful home.
I highly recommend you speak with Andrew Taylor; whether your case is a simple one or more complex, to make sure all issues are properly addressed now and for your future.

We were in search of a reputable, hard working Lawyer to help us with a multi layer family case including keeping sole custody , child support & limiting visitation. Taylor Stone was recommended to us and from the very first conversation I felt at ease , he was strong willed , knowledgeable and dedicated a lot of time and efforts into making this case as easy for us as possible.. he made himself available to every email , phone call , and question that we had along the way. He insured us and shared his knowledge of what would happen so we understood every aspect of what was happening. The day of court he shined in the court room and closed the case with a huge win for us. I would recommend him to everyone and anyone in need of a trusted lawyer and my family will always use him if needed in the future.

Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.
Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?
Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
- Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
- Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
- Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
- Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
- Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
- Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.
Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.
What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?
A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:
- Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
- Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
- Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
- Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
- Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
- Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
- Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.
How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.
The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.
How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:
- Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
- Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
- Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
- Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.
Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
Who will be handling my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.
How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
- Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
- Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
- List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
- Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.
Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
