Barbara not only reached out to me right away but she was very responsive and knowledgeable in the areas of questions I had for her and was able to provide clarity to a very confusing situation.

My husband and I recently worked with Antonoplos & Associates to create our estate plan, including…read morea will and healthcare directives. Since this was our first experience with such a project, it was important for us to work with a firm that both understood the legal complexities of the planning and had regularly worked with same-sex couples. Our first consultation with Mr. Antonopolis was a valuable and informative one that made us feel confident about the undertaking. And we very much appreciated his straightforward personal style. We always felt fully supported, understood, and respected. Over the course of gathering the needed information to create our documents, staff members, particularly paralegal Daria Brovenko, were always ready to guide us through the process and provide answers to questions. And at the final signing, we were happy to meet other staff, all of whom made the closing step of our legal journey one that went smoothly and was filled with their warm congratulations. Having these legal protections in place was important for us, and our very positive experience with Antonoplos & Associates played a significant role in providing that peace of mind. We highly recommend their work.

UPDATE: Minutes after posting my review, I received a call from Peter Anotonoplos and he said my…read moreappointment was declined because it was Juneteenth. I reminded him that it was his staff that scheduled the appointment for that day and that I had called 2 days prior inquiring about the status of the appointment and no one once mentioned Juneteenth. I have updated my review from 1 to 3 stars because he offered to have a conversation about my situation and gave me some feedback. As requested, I considered removing my review but since I can see from Yelp reviews that this is not an uncommon type of incident, I am leaving it here for anyone else - like myself - may not have time to wait for the day of the appointment to find out if they can get legal counsel about a potentially urgent matter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEWARE of the tentative/pending appointment!! I have a legal plan through work and this firm was provided for me. I called to make an appointment and was told my appointment, for the following week, was tentative and that I would get an email to let me know if the appointment was accepted or not. I asked when I would find out and was told it would likely be in the next 24 hours. I asked what would determine if it was accepted and was told it was usually just a scheduling decision. So when it was just 2 days away from the appointment, I still had not received any response. I called and was told by reception that they would let the attorney know I called. ON THE MORNING OF THE APPOINTMENT, I received an email that my appointment was declined. This is an unacceptable way to do business. My issue was becoming urgent and I didn't expect this kind of treatment.

Carolyn is a wonderful attorney and a supportive, understanding human being. I am truly grateful…read morethat I had the opportunity to work with her. I spoke with several attorneys before making my decision, and from our very first phone call I could tell she was different. She did not rush the conversation or treat it like just another case, she listened carefully, understood the details of my situation, and provided thoughtful, practical advice right away. That first call lasted more than half an hour, and after it, I knew I wanted her to represent me. My divorce case was long and challenging, and Carolyn was exceptional throughout the entire process. She handled many responsibilities beyond what was expected and always remained solution-focused. At times, the mediator and the opposing attorney were difficult to work with, and there were even moments when it felt like she was doing more than her share just to keep the process moving forward. She was always accessible, I could reach her quickly whenever needed, we spent hours discussing important details, and she consistently responded to my emails in minutes. I was going through an extremely difficult time financially and emotionally, and Carolyn was incredibly supportive. Even during periods when I struggled to make payments, she continued to work hard and never pressured me. In fact, there were times when she first asked whether I was financially okay before even mentioning her fees. That says a lot about her character, she is not money-centered; she genuinely cares about her clients as people. There were moments when I shared my sadness and emotional struggles, and she was supportive like a friend and, at times, almost like a therapist. She guided me with honesty and professionalism, sometimes telling me things that were difficult to hear, but that honesty is exactly what makes her such an exceptional attorney. She does not sugarcoat reality; she is direct, logical, and always focused on achieving the best possible outcome. In the end, we were able to reach an agreement, and my divorce is now finalized. I truly owe this result in large part to Carolyn's dedication, intelligence, and steady guidance. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs not only a highly skilled and successful attorney, but also a genuinely kind and compassionate human being.

Samantha was easy to work with from start to finish and was able to stay professional despite the long lines at the party (I mean, how could you not want something so beautiful as a keepsake?). I could picture using her for corporate events, bridal showers, baby showers and any other celebration that could you a personalized twist. She can write on any material and even engraves on glass! I have not had the chance to check out her Intro to Hand Lettering classes yet but for now, I'll leave it to the pros. Painted Palettes is simply the best!

A couple months ago, my friend Kim and I took an Intro to Hand Lettering class with Samantha at Steadfast Supply in DC. Oh that rush hour traffic and $20 parking was sooo worth it! Turns out, Samantha used to be a teacher, and it shows in the way she articulates the class. It was easy to follow her instructions, and she was very hands-on with showing examples. Plus we got a pretty decent set of tools and goodies to take home with us! Since, I've purchased some of her watercolor artwork to hang at home. I am such a fan! The artwork can be found on her website or in various shops in the area. And her classes are actually affordable! Next I want to take her Pointed Pen class!
