Within 5 minutes of our initial meeting, I knew that she would be the best attorney to represent me moving forward and I immediately changed my representation. Lindsay was my absolute saving grace during a very difficult and extremely complex divorce and continues to provide stellar legal guidance. She is incredible. She is always responsive and attentive and always makes me feel like I am her only client when I know that she is extremely busy managing multiple clients and her own busy personal life. She is a strong, intelligent, and confident woman. She is professional, compassionate, and hardworking. My kids and I would not be where we are today without her guidance and expertise. I am truly grateful for her. I highly recommend Lindsay Hendrix as a loyal, honorable, and amazing attorney. I will forever be grateful to her for all she has done, and continues to do, for my kids and I. She is the best.

Hello. My name is Adrian Morales…read more My experience with Livesay & Myers had some positives, but also major setbacks. I started with a different lawyer who was rushed, inattentive, and whose overall planning wasn't beneficial to my case. When she retired, I was assigned to Alyssa, who had little experience with custody cases. Despite this, Alyssa was professional, approachable, and genuinely tried to support me, explaining legal issues clearly and making a stressful process more understandable. Brittany was a good assistant and helpful whenever she could. Unfortunately, a very crucial court date was missed by Alyssa, which I believe was the turning point in our case. After that, the judge sent our case to Fauquier County, and that's when things started to go downhill. To make matters worse, during my last case in Loudoun County, they sent a random attorney to support me who didn't know anything about my case, making both me and Livesay & Myers look unprepared in front of the judge. After spending $18,000, I literally got nothing from the ordeal--the only modification that came out of all this was a calling schedule with my kids. Livesay & Myers can be capable and supportive, but I strongly suggest clarifying who will handle your case and their experience with custody matters before committing.

My soon to be ex-husband is using this firm to handle our divorce, and up until this point the…read moredivorce was going as smoothly as possible. I post this as a person deeply concerned about how this office serves divorce notices. The paperwork from my divorce separation agreement/address/phone number were taped to my door, not in an envelope, for my entire apartment building to see. I say this also on behalf of my soon to be ex-husband because sensitive information about him was in the document as well. When I went to alert the firm that this had happened and that they should put such notices in an envelope, the receptionist or paralegal was incredibly rude, and said "let me cut you off there and ask you to put your concerns in an email to....." This is vile, unprofessional, and unethical. If you want your information left on someone's door for neighbors to be able to see, go with this firm. I would rather hire someone with some discretion and decorum that would be expected of an attorney's office.

There is no question in my mind my children are healthy and safe today because of the immediate and…read moredecisive actions Laila Raheen took following a troubling situation that put my children at risk. Earlier this year, I found myself in an incredibly difficult position. Due to unexpected and unfortunate mental health issues with my ex-wife, I believed my children were no longer safe in the current custody agreement we had. I did not know what I could do or what my options were, but knew I needed to act immediately to protect my children. Ms. Raheen had represented me during my divorce three years prior. During that time, I had gained a great deal of trust and respect for Ms. Raheen and her paralegal Taryn Arp. Three years later when my children's safety became a concern, I immediately called Ms. Raheen again and requested her help. I was pleased to learn that even though several years had passed since my divorce, Ms. Raheen was still familiar with the facts of my case and she was prepared to tell me my options. She was decisive and acted quickly to move my children legally into my custody until we could ensure their safety. In addition, I also had Jennifer Huchler and Paralegal Taryn Arp working on my case. I valued Ms. Huchler's input and was confident in the work she did on my behalf. Ms. Huchler and Ms. Raheen were knowledgeable experts I could trust to safely voice my concerns to and ask questions of during our meetings. They were all easily accessible, quick to respond, and always thoughtful with my time. This was a difficult case with complicated issues. Ms. Raheen always made keeping my kids safe her number one priority, and she produced results that did exactly that. I am so grateful for the work done by Ms. Raheen, Ms. Huchler, and Ms. Arp.

Honestly, if I could give 0 stars, I would…read more Whatever you do, don't hire this firm. They are extremely expensive and, in my experience, seemed more focused on billing than on helping their clients. I worked with Teddi and Sunny, and I regret my decision. I spent over $12,000 on my case and was repeatedly told they could handle it. I shared how serious and urgent my situation had become, but I felt very little was done to move my case forward. After my first court hearing, they chose to withdraw from representing me, which was both surprising and disappointing. Another frustrating issue was being billed for reviewing and responding to numerous emails sent by the opposing parties. Even though I wasn't the one initiating those communications, I was still charged for the time spent addressing them, which significantly increased my legal fees. After hiring a new attorney, I was told that my case should have been handled differently. Looking back, I wish I had known more about the firm's experience with family law before retaining them. Had I known, I would have chosen different representation from the beginning. This was my personal experience, and unfortunately, I cannot recommend this firm. For the amount I paid, I expected far better communication, advocacy, and results.

Do not waste your money on this firm. They are unqualified attorneys who have their own agenda and…read morenot you or your childs best interest. I retained this firm for custody and child support. I have had an ongoing open case with DCSE for arrearages in the tens of thousands. Rather than see the trial through she opted to settle for less than half of what is owed. She did not file what was asked in the amount of dollars owed and left it as 50% of all child related expenses. The father is now behind 8 months once again which always leads back to court. This is what they want, so you will continue to retain them and spend your life savings. Then a court hearing was scheduled in November of last year for August of this year giving this girm ample time to prepare. Once again I could not reach them for over a month asking how do we prepare. Discovery was due and instead of admitting to failure they decided to drop my case one month before the trial date. I was forced to retain a real attorney however the damage was done. Since no evidence was submitted to the courts, trial was postponed and removed from the docket. They didn't even have a file for my case. They sent over next to nothing when requested by my new firm. Now we have to re-submit filings and most likely wait another 8 months for a trial date available. Save your time and hard earned money for a firm who takes your childs best interest seriously!!

A difficult & abused feeling experience with this firm…read more I needed legal help to process the estate of my deceased mother. I ended up wasting six months and about $4K, paid in fees, with no outcome with Geller Law. I was first requested to have a mandatory paid initial consultation session to go over my legal help needed. I was introduced to Julie S. during this session. After describing my specific case & needs, she informed me that Geller Law can handle my case. What followed was months of emotional stress & redundant conversations with the staff of this firm that yielded no results. It became clear to me that they didn't know how to legally handle my case. Some staff members were argumentative & appeared trying to take advantage of this emotional situation for me. There were redundant conversations that I was later billed for. I concluded that this firm is not the choice that can handle my case professionally. I terminated my work with them. The new law firm I selected to handle my case turned out to be more knowledgeable for my case. And, more compassionate with me. The process was handled smoothly & professionally to completion.
