Parents of special needs children are painfully aware that parenting doesn't end after 18 years. Sometimes the challenge of caring for adult disabled children is elevated after childhood, in that you face the same (or even intensified) responsibilities, but with less energy to throw at them. My days are preoccupied with diaper changes, medication administration, range of motion exercises, g-tube feedings, seizure control, the ordering and management of home medical supplies, help with activities of daily living, transportation, doctor appointments, and (...ugh...) insurance claims. An added responsibility that I'm guessing most special needs parents don't anticipate (or, at least, don't have a full appreciation for) once the child(ren) turn 18 is upkeeping legal guardianship. It's not just something you file for, and it's done for life. There is documentation and filings - for each dependent - that have to be meticulously kept up to date. That is what Vanessa has done for our family - she has made something (something potentially time-consuming and overwhelming) relatively easy for us. I don't know that there's anything I value more than someone making something easier for me, and that's exactly what Vanessa does. To be honest, I'm not even overly familiar with the exact requirements of guardianship. That's the beauty of Vanessa's assistance. She sends me occasional forms to fill out. I fill them out and send them back to her and she keeps everything legal for us so we don't end up with the added, nightmarish scenario of an expired guardianship. I can rest easy that everything is well in hand. I highly recommend Vanessa; she's offers relaxed peace of mind, and what's more valuable than that?!

Vanessa was very knowledgeable and was able to clearly articulate the process to a first timer like myself. I will be hiring Vanessa again for other legal matters within her expertise.

I have been working with Vanessa for over 6 years and I can honestly say my life has changed for the better. From the moment I hired her, she proved her knowledge, and expertise in family law. Her overall confidence and attitude toward my situation made it apparent that we were well-prepared for every issue or event that arose. Vanessa has been an exceptional advocate through many of life's curveballs. She has always kept me well-informed and provided the tools I needed to make hard decisions. I sincerely want to thank Vanessa for not only fighting for me through some of the toughest moments of my life but always protecting my interest. I highly recommend Vanessa to anyone!

Vanessa has been absolutely great to work with. She has supported me with my ongoing challenges and matters dealing with my ex wife. Vanessa is very strategic in her approach, thoughtful in her tactics and, importantly, successful in getting the best outcomes possible.

Vanessa is such an amazing lawyer and I feel so lucky to have had her on my side during my recent divorce. She made me feel safe and protected during one of the most painful and vulnerable times of my life. I absolutely recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for an attorney for family law.

We faced what we thought would be a monumental task in a parenting plan amendment for my son. Vanessa Moore was hired by him and she took control by guiding him and giving him strong advice whenever they hit a crossroads. She is a great negotiator. She tells you what will work and what won’t. Then the case made a turn where my husband and I had been drug into it by the other party. Vanessa graciously accepted our request to be our council as well. And when all was said and done everything worked out for us. I know this was all due to her values, compassion for her clients and her ability to make you feel worthy of her time. Anyone would be lucky to call her their lawyer. She’s one of the good ones.

I spoke with Vanessa about a civil protection order filed against me. Although I'm still considering my options (she's a very strong candidate), I'd like the public to note that she struck me as a particularly honest individual, which is something I genuinely value. She was incredibly helpful in helping me understand the details of my case and alleviating a lot of uncertainties -- certainly more so than most of the other ~20 attorneys I've contacted. If I were certain I needed a lawyer (I'm still debating), she would stand at the top, or very close to it, of my list. If you're seeking help in her area of expertise, I'm sure she'd be an incredible resource.

Vanessa got the job done! She got me what I deserved and helped keep my anxiety low throughout the whole process. We met a few times, but she was always cautious to keep the meetings efficient to not pad my bill (I was working within a tight budget). I had hired a different lawyer before I met Vanessa who was incredibly!! costly!! and didn’t have my best interest at heart. After shelling out a lot of money to the other lawyer, I found Vanessa which was the best thing I could have done. I would highly recommend Vanessa. She pushed on my ex’s lawyer who was constantly dragging his feet. Now, my divorce is done, and I feel free as a bird! Thank you, Vanessa!!

I have had the privilege of having Vanessa as an attorney in my year long divorce case. The case was not as simple since there were two countries involved. Vanessa was extremely thorough with her research and addressing my concerns. She is extremely organized and stayed on top of everything very patiently and with empathy.
I would not hesitate to recommend Vanessa to any friends or family members looking for an experienced divorce attorney.

Vanessa helped me with custody of my granddaughter. She was very clear with the process and paperwork needed. It was completed in a timely manner. Every time I had a question, I could call, she would answer or she always called me back. She worked hard to win my case and I felt she honestly cared. I recommend her and I will definately call on her services again.

Vanessa really did a good job explaining to me the intricacies of my case and I was very happy with the final Pre-Nuptial agreement reached.
Also, she was willing to answer my questions post marriage.
I would highly recommend her.
