John is an outstanding attorney. He worked very closly with my husband and I in a complicated step-parent adoption case. John was very impressive in the court room and was obviously well prepared. His intense knowledge of the law is evident. John is an astounding lawyer; one I would highly recommend to anyone with child custody/adoption issues.

I have nothing but good things to say about John. He worked very diligently on my child custody/visitation case and always kept me informed. John worked closely with my child's counselor and CPS worker to get all the information he needed to be well prepared for court. I could not be happier with my decision to hire John as my lawyer.

We hired Mr. Karanian for a very difficult visitation case. This case involved my deceased sister's young child and the father who took this precious child away from us for over 2 years. In order to get grandparent visitation in Virginia, the grandparents would have to prove that the child would suffer actual harm without this visitation. This is a VERY hard standard to meet, so it is nearly impossible for grandparents to get visitation if the parents don't allow it to happen. In our case, the father was the issue preventing my niece from seeing her mother's side of the family...including her grandmother. Mr. Karanian diligently worked hard on our case along with a private detective and a well known doctor. All individuals were amazing and worked so hard to make the impossible possible. We are so grateful to Mr. Karanian , his office staff and his team of professionals. We were always kept informed (and this is rare for most attorney's). We cannot say enough about the wonderful service that we received. If you need an attorney, Mr. Karanian is highly recommended and #1 in our book.
