I can attest that the reviews are true. Robert is amazing and I always felt I was in good hands because he is an expert with Ch. 13 BKs. I always felt he was being honest with me and sincere. Because he is so knowledgeable about the law, he advised me when was the best time to file, in MY best interest. That's what a good counselor does; looks out for your best interest, and ensures you have the facts you need so you can make an informed decision. I will always be grateful to The Law Office of Robert S. Brandt.

She was on time, personable, gave a beautiful service and even took a few pictures. We both felt like the day could not have gone any better and Gerylee was a big part of that. EDIT: I get a lot of messages about this review. So I thought I'd share the location was the gardens behind the Carlyle House in Old Town Alexandria - you can see images here: https://www.google.com/search?q=carlyle+house+garden&hl=en&tbo=u&rlz=1C1SKPL_enUS429US438&tbm=isch&source=univ&sa=X&ei=w9DUUJuOEaOw2wXEg4GgDw&ved=0CFEQsAQ&biw=1422&bih=785 Then we walked to Old town and had a lovely lunch.

Bottom Line - Colleen Haddow is the BEST attorney I could have ever wished for --my only regret is…read morethat I didn't start with her from the beginning. Ms. Colleen Haddow came as a recommendation from my previous law firm following failed mediation in a highly complex, contentious, and financially draining divorce and custody case. The opposing counsel - whose professional reputation precedes her as a person devoid of ethics and civility, made finding a willing, capable, and affordable replacement daunting. Colleen personally and immediately took my call for an intake interview. When I opened by informing her of who opposing counsel was, she simply laughed with complete confidence, accepted my case, and immediately got my case moving on the right track. Unlike opposing counsel in this case, Colleen is a legal professional with impeccable integrity and ethics; but not to be confused with someone who submits to bully tactics or shies away from confrontation in or out of the courtroom. In contrast, Ms. Haddow is emotionally intelligent and well versed in the rules of the court to effectively persuade and, if need be, compel cooperation from even the most difficult of personalities. In doing so, she also remained a steadfast, approachable, and responsive attorney (often responding to me within minutes), who consistently addressed my concerns, provided objective perspective, and gave absolute sound guidance amidst the evolving challenges within the case. In short, she kept me sane and grounded in arguably the most stressful and emotionally draining period of my life. In addition to her superior soft skills, Colleen also demonstrated unmatched expertise and experience in distilling and framing the key issues of my case (fully explaining the legalities), to include those I hadn't initially seen, understood, or considered. She proved invaluable in interpreting and exposing financial information, indiscretions, and activities. She was also proactive, strategic, anticipatory, and prepared always and on all fronts. I am convinced that she and her abilities alone are the REASON that ultimately resulted in my case outcome far surpassing my initial expectations from failed mediation, and resulting in a final settlement that exceeded my best-case scenario in court (albeit that she was fully prepared and willing to execute). Colleen saved me thousands in legal expenses, but more importantly, she helped me overcome a series of short-term losses in exchange for an overwhelming long-term gain on my journey to a new and better life. In the strongest terms possible, I highly recommend Colleen Haddow for all family litigation.

Colleen came recommended to me without hesitation from another esteemed family law attorney cited…read morein USA Today as a top attorney in the DC area. I am so thankful for the recommendation and that I took this attorney's advice to retain Colleen. Colleen helped me navigate my separation and prepared me for trial with calculated wisdom, grace, and finesse. Ultimately yielding to a judge to decide what is best for the ones who matter most is excruciatingly hard; Colleen's command of the law, intimate knowledge of the details of my case and her execution in court were phenomenal. Her attention to detail, personal commitment to excellence and outstanding professionalism allowed a judge to clearly see the case before him. After custody, we were able to settle final terms in mediation. Again, Colleen ensured I was well prepared and that all the details were understood, disclosed, and terms fair and reasonable to bring my divorce to an end. I would not hesitate to recommend Colleen to anyone looking for an attorney with whom they can openly dialogue, solicit advice, and pay exceptional value for an elite standard of service. I tried one attorney before Colleen, witnessed and endured what the attorney on opposing counsel brought forth both in court and mediation, and am so thankful that I had Colleen with me to finalize what has been the most difficult time in my life. The results were truly unparalleled.

Marina is a fearless and fearsome attorney…read more We navigated an extremely difficult case that lasted over 3 years against the most infamously stacked court systems in the country: the DC Federal District. As an attorney she stood by while I suffered withering public attacks against my character, going above and beyond our original contract in defending me not just in the legal courtroom but in the courtroom of public opinion as well. Even when my own resolve was flagging, Marina NEVER LET UP! She defended me with more ferocity than I would've defended myself! One of the greatest traits of her work is that she keeps the prosecution on the back foot. She doesn't wait for them to respond to her motions, but has the response to their response ready to go as soon as those federal prosecutors put down their pumpkin spice lattes long enough to show up to work. That's right, while the feds are busy laying about in an attempt to drag things on and drain your resources, she's WORKING. And as soon as they respond, BOOM! She's already countered their arguments. Talk about courtroom drama. She had them so backed in a corner, half of the DC DoJ flooded the court in an attempt to provide support to our prosecutors. An army of US Attorneys against just her and they knew they were losing. It was inspiring to see. But it's not just her legal knowledge and keen sense of tactics that give her such an advantage. It was what the Japanese refer to as Kokoro, or heart. Marina's valuable work ethic is the result of throwing her heart into the case. And that's not something you can say for most attorneys. Believe me, I used to work for an AmLaw 80 Corporate Law firm. I know attorneys. At the end of the day, the fees were beyond reasonable. In fact, I feel like I owe her far more than what I paid out. Hire Marina and you get more than an attorney. You get a decent, dedicated, and daunting human being. Highly recommend!

I know she will fight as hard as she can - tooth and nail - for clients. I have had good results with joint clients, and I am confident that no case is too complex for her to handle. Picking an attorney is about being comfortable and confident with your choice. I would recommend anyone looking for criminal representation to consider meeting with Marina to discuss their case - see for yourself that she is competent, hard-working, and savvy about the law. Bottom line - No one will fight harder than she will.
