Thank you for all your help and keeping us well informed.

When Melody took over my case, it was going nowhere, the previous attorney had done nothing for months but allow opposing counsel to stall, allowing my case to become dormant, luckily that attorney left the firm. When Melody took over she immediately began filing motions, requesting documents that previously had been denied. The outcome of my case was not all I'd hoped for, but Melody made sure I was able to maximize and make the best out of a bad situation. She was always honest, forthright, and meticulous in her handling of the case. She even pushed for the firm to credit my account for work that the previous attorney had not completed. If you want integrity, honesty, and hard work, definitely hire Melody Petitt as your counsel.

Melody handled my case with care & logic. She challenged me when I was leading with emotional rather than logic, and understood when she needed to pull back. She was an excellent partner through the whole process, and I have already recommended her to others.

Remarkable attorney! I highly recommend him and his team. He is reasonable and gets the job done! Trust his process!

Gene was great! Answered al my questions. Promptly answered all emails and phone calls. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case

Got into my first run-in with the law and was overwhelmed with what to do. I was doing research and found Gene Sera. It was by divine intervention that he was the first lawyer I contacted. He told what he was gonna do and how it would go. In little to no time at all, everything was settled and done with. The outcome was exactly as he said it would be. I couldn’t be more grateful for his expertise and professionalism. If you need help out of a tight spot, I would recommend Gene in a heartbeat. THANK YOU!!!

Mr. Gene Sara is such a great attorney! He has been my attorney for 2 years. He helped me beat my first case, and I personally asked for him to do my 2nd case! He beat them both! He helped me get on probation, and also just helped me get off probation! He is such a good attorney. I seriously recommend!

You don't know what you don't know. However, you do know when something is not working out. With that said, I went through a couple of attorneys before being represented by Melody Petitt with Hargrave Family Law and that made all the difference. I will start off saying that the divorce process is like a game. And the law is the rule book, which is a constant that does not change. Where the game gets interesting are the players involved, petitioner, respondent and legal team. Every case is unique, yet some attorneys approach the process as if it's all the same. However, in my case, we were dealing with a high conflict personality; and, it cannot be taken lightly. Unlike my prior attorneys, Melody jumped on my case and took the time to really understand my situation and what we were dealing with. She took the time to educate me on the law and how it applied in my situation, whether it was something I wanted to hear or not. The law is the law. She knew how to deal with the opposing party. Strategy was the key, and she was prepared for anything. She earned my trust and with that trust, she help make this process tolerable. Most importantly, she was able to get my case wrapped up in a timely manner with a desirable outcome. An outcome that would not have been possible otherwise. I highly recommend Melody Petitt.

Gene helped me get 2 charges refused! I am so thankful for all the information he provided me and the time he spent working on my case!

Approach to the case was phenomenal. Actually reached out to me regularly to inform me about updates and changes regarding the case. Couldn't be more satisfied with the service the office provided.

Great guy..but fees were too high!
