Met with me and the lady looked at all my paperwork for some stuff we that happened with Portside rehab after about 20 minutes of going through all my stuff she pulls out the first document that I handed her in the beginning and said I’m sorry, but we can’t represent you. mind you for the 20 minutes she was rifling through all of my stuff she made four pages of notes so this makes me think that maybe she’s not being so truthful and somebody who is not part of my best interest is a client of hers already??? on top of that she lied about the validity and legality of one of my documents. I guess she thought me to be of inferior intelligence and would just walk off and be dumb but I am willing to bet money that she is connected to the other side of my legal problems and this was just researching what I may or may not have. Very very shady. Oh yeah then they were whispering and cutting their eyes out the corners when was leaving

I hired Jennifer to represent me in a court case involved my late husband's affairs due to no will. She is extremely compassionate, well informed of the laws in VA. She answers all questions promptly. I do not know how I would have been able to navigate the probate court system without. She is fair in her charges and looks for ways to save you the client money. I would whole heartedly refer anyone looking for a lawyer to help with the VA probate process.

I highly recommend Maureen Danker. Maureen is up front, honest and compassionate. From the beginning of my contentious custody case Maureen set my expectations. Maureen was very transparent in terms of cost. She was open and honest regarding the strength of my case to ensure I had the opportunity to weigh risk verses reward at every turn. When I made the decision to litigate my custody case, Maureen was all in. Her professionalism and knowledge in the court room was impeccable. I had several family members and friends in attendance, and they were in awe. My case was NOT a slam dunk. As we waited for the judge’s decision at the conclusion of trial, I was at peace knowing that no matter the outcome, Maureen left no stone unturned, nothing on the table and presented the best case possible. The judgment went 100% our way which is a true testament to Maureen’s superior litigation skills. My equitable distribution case was settled out of court and again, Maureen set my expectations and gave me the information I needed to make decisions. Her outstanding negotiation skills provided me a settlement that exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for an attorney who is honest, compassionate and not looking to spend your money unnecessarily, Maureen Danker is the attorney for you.

I gave them 1 star because I called to get my remaining balance to pay off. Their accounting person was awful and rude. She did not know what the fees are being charged for nor the remaining balance that I would had to speak to the lawyer handling the case to get the final balance. That was fine but why be nasty and rude if clients are asking. They really need to train their front office or accounting staff better customer service or how to properly talk to clients better. My husband called a second time and asked to speak to a specific paralegal or lawyer involved in the case to get the final balance and they mistakenly transferred him to this accounting person they had again. She was soo rude and spoke to us both slowly like you are talking to a 1st grader like we did not speak any English. I do not know if it’s because of our last name but we both were born in the states so there was no need to belittle people that are trying to pay off their remaining balance. Makes me think she speaks to all foreigners this way and everybody should be spoken with respect regardless what race, former or current client. We will not be using them ever again for any services knowing they have rude and nasty accounting or front office staff that are not properly trained. I will also be telling others I know about this awful experience.

It was a fantastic experience working with Poole Brooke Plumlee. I was referred to them and after an initial conversation, was connected with Mr. David Oakley. We required urgent support on a short notice, and David exceeded our expectations in every way. He grasped our needs, thoroughly reviewed the materials we provided, kept us informed at every stage, and represented us exceptionally well. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

I see the the response from the "owner" of this restaurant. It's lengthy and it is also "lashing out" at a customer who gave an honest rating of their honest experience both with the food and the manager's response.
At No time was I confused nor did anything state a Waitlist feature as the owner indicates. The RESY Reservation system worked and I received updates throughout to indicate our dining reservation at the date and time booked. This is simply untrue of the Owner to state so. I reserved a full 5-6 weeks ahead to ensure the date because our kitchen was dismantled with a remodel. There was nothing at any time on the website that indicated this Restaurant was closed. There was also another patron that got booked for Thanksgiving, all stated by their Reservation manager, who called me at 3 pm on the Mon before Thanksgiving to " spring this news!"
If Summers has the caliber of oversight indicated by this Owner, then they would have known RESY was booking for Thanksgiving BUT this clearly indicates their practices of Reservation Management are not proactive more than checking the week of dining. Additionally, this Owner never had the wait staff ask if we drank Champagne prior to serving. When I mentioned a bottle of wine would have been nice I certainly didn't expect more than we ordered on any past visit which had been a $34 bottle!
Evidently, this type of passive aggressive response to my review by this owner, shown by belittling a customer for something the customer had Zero control over, but was their own internal oversight issues is what to expect if one submits honestly. Our family has been in business for over 70 years and this is Not how you stay in business. A humble spirit goes a long way as well as putting yourself in the customer's place. Whether you agree or disagree, our motto was, " take responsibility to lessen the damage, not flame the fire!"
Additionally, it was I, who told the wait staff, we'll after being seated and mentioning our "Thanksgiving issue." So, if the table had been marked as the owner indicated, " for special attention, " then clearly the wait staff should have been the first to mention something and not me, the customer!
If you dig deeper into other Reviews there are a few others indicating the same negative experience with the food.
We dined at Summers Cellar on New Year's Eve. This was our first visit to the cellar but not to Rooftop. The Cellar provides nice ambiance for a winter evening.
However, the food this time was very subpar.
We ordered the roasted brussel sprouts as an appetizer and they arrived cool. These appeared to have been precooked and then dished out without thought to serving a warm dish.
My husband ordered sea bass, which turned out bland and without taste. It was flaky and not overdone but the paella cake was described as "eating cardboard" according to my husband.
I ordered the sauteed scallops, which one could not enjoy the sear or taste the scallop due to them being served in a massive amount of nontasty "glop", which was also being used to finish another dish on the menu.
The menu hasn't changed from our summer visit. It's really too bad the food offerings don't have the quality, creativity and variety to stand up to the wine list.
We had an earlier issue here around Thanksgiving and without getting into too much detail felt the owner was a bit "chintzy" with us making up for their Big mistake, which caused us to cancel our Thanksgiving meal (only getting informed 2 days prior ). It's evident that their was not much empathy for the spot it put our family in as anyone knows that's hosted, the Turkey, itself won't thaw in two days! Ownership blamed RESY instead of taking responsibility...not even a "sorry" this happened, just a pivot to divert the underlying internal issues, which are management not being more proactive with an advanced "look out" of their Reservation calendar. A nice bottle of wine would have been appreciated.

I am immensely grateful for the exceptional legal representation provided by John Gately. He was truly instrumental in securing a favorable final decision in my case. John’s expertise in IDES proceedings was evident throughout the process, and he worked tirelessly to craft compelling rebuttals and appeals to the board. Communication was excellent every step of the way, providing clarity and reassurance during this daunting process. I highly recommend John to anyone in need of a knowledgeable and dedicated IDES attorney. Thank you for your outstanding commitment and professionalism!

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.

I give Kevin Biniazan and his team the highest rating I can. I had a case in Va Beach a few years ago, called a few attorneys but ended up going with Kevin because of the knowledge and compassion he showed. After telling Kevin my issue, he and his team did all the work. They took the time to listen to my concerns and feelings, they were informative and available at all times. Along with the success of my case, Kevin and his team gave me the opportunity and support I needed to begin healing. I couldn’t recommend enough!

Michael Collett represented us in our suit, and he was incredible. He made quick, efficient work of getting our case positively resolved while also making sure to keep us updated along the way. We recommend him to anyone seeking representation in a personal injury suit.
Our suit had dragged on for five years, and we wondered if it would ever be finished. Once Mike was handed our case, he immediately got to work getting to know us and understanding the timeline of events. Additionally, as a prior military member, he understood that our case was not a traditional cut-and-dry lawsuit: our life continued while the company dragged it out in court, including PCSing overseas and then back to the US during COVID. This kind of personal understanding and attention to detail was instrumental to our case. Mike's background, compassion, attentiveness, and professionalism made the difference; without him, we could have had a very different outcome.
If you are in need of any representation for a personal injury suit, I highly recommend Michael and his colleagues.

Mariah and Rossimar helped me through my contempt and custody matters. They are both amazing and I absolutely recommend them. They made sure to explain everything to me in detail and what options were available, all while respecting the time (money) it took to respond to all my many questions. Over the years I met with a few different attorneys for this matter, but did not feel comfortable with any of them until I met with Mariah for my consultation with Livesay & Myers. I’m so glad I decided to go through with the legal proceedings and am very happy with the representation that I had. Very personable, knowledgeable, and worthwhile.

When I say Mr. Simms is a phenomenal attorney, I mean that in every sense of the word, phenomenal. He is truly dedicated to his work, and he stops at nothing to obtain the best possibly outcome. I was charged with a petit larceny charge that could have ruined my entire life and that of my family as well as my career. Mr. Simms made a 4 hour trip to represent me, and was able to get me a dismissal! If you want a knowledgeable, kind, hardworking attorney, and an attorney that strives to get a dismissal or not guilty verdict, then Mr. Simms is the attorney you need. He won’t disappoint! Thank you Mr. Simms for not only representing me, but for making the drive to represent me, and for not settling for anything less than a dismissal, and that’s exactly what you got for me. I will be eternally grateful for your devotion to my case, and for getting me the verdict of dismissal. I owe you my life for what you did. Thank you sir for representing me! You’re simply phenomenal in every sense of the word, and your kindness will never be forgotten!

I was represented by Mr. Jeremiah Denton in a complex case spanning over two years involving custody of children, a veteran, complex mental health issues, financial issues and much more. The outcome I sought was very rarely granted in the state of Virginia. However, it was granted in my favor. Without question I know that it was Mr. Denton's extremely competent representation and broad experience in presenting this complex case that brought the resolution I hoped for. Two able opposing attorneys put great energy into their presentation of their case. But it was Mr. Denton's measured cross examinations that delivered a clear understanding of the facts which the judge followed with interest. Mr Denton played no games; he was prepared on complex facts and spoke to the point. During the course of this case he was always available to meet and he and his entire team delivered support during a very difficult time. Anyone seeking an attorney would be very fortunate to have his representation.

We met Jeremiah A. Denton III when searching for a lawyer to handle our son's defense against a civil suit. We regret not having met him earlier in this process for the criminal defense as we are certain things would have been different for our son today. However, we did find him for the civil suit and he believed in our case. Jerry Denton and his team fought an uphill battle for our son. He took what appeared to be a lost cause and turned it around to let a jury see the truth of what actually happened in our son's case. He was dedicated and tough. He was knowledgeable, competent, and confident in and out of court. He treated us with compassion and understanding. Jerry's team was also diligent and supportive! Our experience with Jerry and his team has given us hope that someone is on our side and will stand by us.

A medical malpractice lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence or misconduct of healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, or hospitals. These lawyers assist in cases where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury or death. Medical malpractice cases can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.
If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to improper medical treatment, a medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand your legal options, file a lawsuit, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.
