We filed a complaint with the Virginia Board of Accountancy and were informed that an audit was expected to take place at the end of last year. We have not received any updates on the outcome. We also hired an attorney, at our own expense, to formally present our concerns to Sareene Tax and Associates in an effort to seek reimbursement. They stated that no mistakes were made and have not reimbursed us for any of the expenses we incurred. In our view, the errors were clear, and resolving this situation was both stressful and costly. For these reasons, we cannot recommend this firm.

Mr. Mayoras is a rock solid attorney. If you want representation in a Northern Virginia criminal…read morecase, trust me, you will have no regrets if you select Mr. Mayoras as your Defense Attorney. In August 2015, my daughter was a victim of assault and pressed charges against her aggressor. The aggressor counter-charged my daughter. Mr. Mayoras was selected as her public defender. Prior to the hearing, Mr. Mayoras engaged with the prosecutor and maintained contact with us. On the day of the trial I observed other cases prior to ours being heard, I saw weak defense attorneys lose repeatedly to the tough prosecutor. As my daughter was called forward I started to worry. Mr. Mayoras was a rock solid attorney as he cross-examined the defendant who counter-charged my daughter capitalizing on every weakness and inconsistency. He not only had my daughter's counter-charge dismissed but his piercing argument ensured that the aggressor received a conviction. I was absolutely impressed. A year later my son broke up with his girlfriend. In her anger, in March 2016, she chose to file charges of strangulation, assault, and battery saying that my son tried to kill her. A felony warrant was issued for the strangulation and a misdemeanor warrant was issued for the assault and battery. At that moment our lives changed forever. If convicted, my son, a United States Marine, was facing a five-year prison sentence and discharge from the military with no hope of ever finding decent employment in the United States. Life as he knew it would be over for the rest of his life. I called Mr. Mayoras to take the case even though I knew he only practiced in Northern Virginia. Although he warned me that he had no insight into the Norfolk courts, based on my previous observations, I believed that if anyone could save my son, it would be Mr. Mayoras. Upon taking the case, he did extensive research and kept us informed of his strategy to win. With months of preparation we went to trial in October 2016. Like my previous encounter in court a year earlier I observed multiple weak defense attorneys lose to the tough prosecutors leading to multiple convictions. At the end of the day, the last case to be heard, my son was called to trial. I started to get concerned as the prosecutor started to build a case against my son. However, as every prosecuting witness was brought forward, Mr. Mayoras processed every word that was stated exploiting every weakness and inconsistency in their testimony through cross-examination. He even challenged the relevance of certain witnesses who as a result did not even get to testify. Then it was the time for the defense to take action. Short, straight, and to the point he built a bullet-proof defense with only two witnesses and the defendant. Sharp, smart, and one step ahead of the game, he even recalled one of the prosecuting witnesses and manipulated the individual to testify in favor of my son. The strength in the prosecutor's case had dwindled by the end of the trial through the skill and mental agility of Mr. Mayoras. The judge dismissed both charges and my son was a free man with a life ahead of him. Think about it, Mr. Mayoras won this case despite having never entered the Norfolk courthouse previous to this. I challenge you not just to take my word for it. You have one chance to win or lose a case. Call him and find out when he is next in court. It will cost you nothing to see him first hand in action as he handles his case. I promise that you will be absolutely impressed. You don't have to choose him, but please make your selection only after seeing him handle a case in court. I am in the military and am due to rotate to Florida next year. My only regret is that Mr. Mayoras is not bar certified in Florida! Good luck to you. Choose your defense attorney wisely.

For the record, I am writing this review voluntarily. Anything I write has not been exaggerated to…read moreany extent or coerced by any means. The Notary Seal has proven to be a highly professional and qualified notary and apostille service that delivers on everything they claim to be. Their website makes the claim that they offer the "#1 Certified and Reliable Notary services in Fredericksburg, VA and Nationwide" (https://thenotaryseal.com/). Furthermore, they state on their website that, "[w]e provide professional notary services to ensure your documents are legally verified and properly executed" (https://thenotaryseal.com/). My experience with them recently tells me that they are trustworthy, offering high quality services where no other business is able to. Back in September of 2025, my fiancé and I had set our wedding date for December 26, 2025. In order to get married, I was required to provide two apostilled documents: (1) No Record of Marriage Certificate and a (2) No Record Certificate from New York State. These documents arrive to the Department of State on October 4th. I made an online inquiry as to their status on 11/14/25. To this date, more than two months later from the date these documents arrived, I have neither received them back, nor heard back concerning their status. When I thought I had done all I could to get my documents apostilled, I gave up, and started accepting what I thought was only reasonable to accept-- that I would not get married on December 26th. But my fiancé encouraged me to try to find another way to get these documents. All this time, I had been avoiding going through an apostille agency for economic reasons.  I called a local apostille business to get estimates for an expedited apostille process. The UPS Store and another agency that provides services to New York City both quoted me for at least a 2-3 week wait at a high cost. The business in NYC told me that because I was not a local, they could not provide me with an expedited 2-3 day service, as their website boldly stated with no qualifications. On 12/04/25, I called The Notary Seal. I first spoke with a kind female rep who had me fill out a quick form to get an estimate. That evening the CEO called me to understand my situation better. I explained everything to him over the phone. I told him that I was on a budget but needed their services. He told me that their was a way to get the apostilles I needed in time for my deadline (13-15 days before the wedding-- when the docs were supposed to reach their international address). He offered me an excellent discount, and provided a pricing estimate the next morning. He explained that if we acted fast, it was possible for the documents to reach their destination by Thursday 12/11/25 (today). Because he was not aware that I was sending them to a foreign address, he estimated their arrival for 12/11. Regardless, they arrived to their final "FedEx destination facility" as of this morning. Suffice it to say, The Notary Seal has more than delivered on their promises. My documents were supposed to arrive to my home today, but instead, they arrived to their final destination by the originally estimated date. The Notary Seal comes highly recommended by me. If you have need for quick, efficient, and comprehensively amazing services; if you prefer personable, understanding service representatives; if you find yourself in the same position as I was in, I have the confidence that The Notary Seal can work with you to get you what you need, and in a timely manner.
