I sought ought Mr. Redmond after being referred to him by a family member that hired him for their divorce. I had just recently separated from my husband and had absolutely no idea what to do or where to start, but immediately after our 1st meeting I knew I was in good hands. I informed Vance of my wishes and he proceeded with those interests in mind, never pushy or aggressive. As is the case with a lot of divorces, the process veered off our intended course but Vance remained patient and professional and worked with me to ensure my wishes would still be achieved. In the end, things went smoothly and I attribute that to him.

I highly recommend Sheila Kadagathur of Hostetter Strent, who handled my divorce/custody case. The entire Hostetter team was extremely helpful and compassionate during a hectic period of my life. I always felt like I was their priority and could count on them at any time of day or even night. All of the staff I encountered at the firm were honest, reliable, and professional. Ms. Kadagathur's expertise and vast knowledge enabled them to handle various situations and whatever was thrown at us throughout my case. Even post divorce, Sheila is always a phone call or email away when needed, and has given me great advice along the way.

Smirking amongst themselves during a consultation doesn’t make me feel like I was being taken seriously while explaining such a sensitive matter.

A week after the "no signature required" independent adoption notice that I found in the gravel of my rental home I flew to Rockville where I met Mr Redmond. He seemed very well connected at court and punished me when I came from Camp Pendleton, California to contest my son's independent adoption at Rockville Family Court. He manipulated facts about my "contempt for denial of visitation" which was served and pending, successfully presented invalid consent documents, and disabled my ability to present any evidence due to my failure to respond to unlawfully served documents.
What was supposed to be a question of my consent (obviously NO), turned into a bashing session. My valid arguments were just ignored, witnesses were permitted to skip damaging questions without objection, and unsubstantiated invalidation was treated as fact. Drowning in my tears the Judge ended with "It is so sad you did not express any loving experiences with your son" and ruled "Consent with non-consent" and walked away. Sounded illegal and probably was. The judgement on paper was completely changed and based on me never making contact, when my ex-wife was served my complaint "contempt for denial of visitation" and all avenues of contact were denied to me.
He turned the judge into his bobble-head toy doll and made all the laws disapear! If you want to win at all costs and don't have a leg to stand on I highly recommend him.

Mr. Redmond came highly recommended and lived up to it for my son and I. I had a hard case to deal with which my sons mother left the state. We tracked her down and served her. I was able to get immediate visitation after not seeing him for months and at the end I left with joint legal custody and some good perks that are very helpful to my particular case. I am very pleased with my outcome and highly recommend Mr. Redmond to anyone.

Vance is a no non-sense, straight to the point type of attorney. He was very upfront with me on my child custody case. He thoroughly explained all the possible options (good or bad) that we could face in my case. He was very proactive the entire way so that we could get ahead of things, in case, we were caught off guard by any loopholes. In court, his demeanor is all business which gave me a sense of confidence and gratitude that he was on my side. I was able to get all the custody arrangements/modifications that I requested and a bogus child support order thrown out by the judge. If you're looking for an attorney that puts the Armour shield on for you, Vance is a great choice...

Vance Redmond provided me the highest caliber, personalized counsel and advice from the time I separated from my spouse through my final divorce. He patiently listened to my story, advised me of all the possible options and outcomes, devised a strategy, and ultimately obtained a most favorable settlement for me in my case. He was a calming influence in those very stressful times when things were seemingly spinning out of my control. Vance Redmond is a lawyer I would wholeheartedly recommend without reservation. He is knowledgeable, responsive and trustworthy to highest degree in his family law field.

Before I hired Mr. Vance Redmond, I was with an attorney who was giving me the worst advice/guidance and as a result, it was hurting my case. Worst of all, the first attorney I hired only cared about getting paid; she did not care about my case as I was just another client. I reviewed many lawyers online and found Mr. Vance Redmond, who received great reviews - It is definitely true what they say about him!
Mr. Vance Redmond was honest from the start. He informed me that my case was difficult, but he will try his best to ensure that I have a chance to win my case. He also gave me options and reasoning behind each strategic move he proposes. As he assured me that the choices are mine to make, the reasoning behind each strategic move is important as it helped me decide the best action to take. In addition, he communicates effectively. He responds back right away to all my calls, voice mails, and emails. It’s definitely reassuring that you would get an answer during emergencies and he is with you every step of the way. Most importantly, he is a lawyer that cares about your case! His main focus was not the money, but how can he win the case for you!
I definitely appreciate his hard work and effort. It really made a difference in ways that I can never thank him enough for. Vance Redmond gave me a voice in a way the court system would hear me. At the end, I have custody of my son, which is priceless!

Vance was the second attorney I had to hire. My first one didn't get the results I was looking for and the costs seemed like it was never ending. I was stressed, worried and ten million other emotions I am sure plenty of others are familiar with. This ended up being an out of state case, since we were both relocating and had planned on it. My initial conversation with Vance gave me a glimmer of hope. He was direct, up front and answered any questions I had. The follow up was quick and I was never left lingering in line with a number. The objective was to keep in mind the best interest of a minor, and through the entire process we stuck to it. This was my first time being in court, my nerves were shot, but once Vance got up to represent me I knew I made the best decision in this entire process. He knows what he's doing, and I needed someone that wasn't passive, wasn't reserved, I needed a firm direct voice and I got it with Vance. I would never wish this process on anyone, it's a pain, and when all parties just can't seem to get on the same page it feels like an impossible mission. I didn't think I would see the light at the end of the tunnel, I was scared, worried about my little one and what would be his fate in all of this, but no matter what I was feeling, I always knew I could reach out to Vance and ask anything I felt uncertain about. Vance will continue to remind you through your process that you can go to him with any questions, and will ask you if there is anything unclear he needs to explain further. If you want someone direct, professional and honest you will get that with Vance.
