    If you need Estate Planning, you need this firm. I spoke with 3 different firms and received 3…read moredifferent answers. I decided to go with this firm because they not only took their time explaining, (as I know nothing about this), they were not after the green. Seriously guys, this is a trustworthy family establishment, who cares more about getting what you need, than their bottom line. Lawyers who actually care about you... I didn't think that existed anymore. We are getting the whole family outfitted here now. If you want honest, helpful and just what you need (not what you don't) try them!! You won't be sorry.

    DO NOT USE THEM. RUN! It would appear the lawyer they retained for family law (Mrs. Barclay) should…read morenot be in practice or be retired. You can see the burnout or lack of caring (she self admitted that she no longer cared about complaints while at the same time, receiving many of them). In essence, the only thing they may have excelled at are uncontested matters, maybe a criminal one. Apparently, they only have one lawyer to work on family cases. When I determined that I was the recipient of ineffective counsel or ethical wrong by Mrs. Barclay, I tried working with the attorney directly in the course of the proceedings, and then ultimately addressed these concerns of ineffective counsel to the law firm owner. I expected that there would be a concern given, but there was not. I was advised by the law firm owner (Mrs. Ranney) that she could not help, considering her and her husband's background in family law was limited. Given that I tried to rehabilitate our relationship with clear expectations, I was further denied service by Mrs. Ranney due to my complaints or concerns that were credible enough to be reported to the Virginia Bar. I sought return of my retainer at the least (realizing they must be paid for some effort even if it were unscrupulous) However, this was never answered. Counsel in this matter was critical, due to a wife who absconded with my children over a decade ago and denied custodial or visitation. The issues I faced are not limited to: 1) Last minute discovery and poor communication. Whether about admissibility, facts or case direction and intentions. 2) No use of subpoena duces tecum to corroborate findings. 3) Allowing unsupervised interrogatories by GAL or court appointed staff. 4) Failure to make disclosures of evidence or submit interrogatories. No evidence was reported by judge! 5) Failure to proceed on the wishes of client during trial, threatening to leave the case and ultimately causing a show cause to be vacated. 6) Threatening abandonment numerous times over minor disagreements. 7) Fails to immediately recognize and object to inadmissible evidence. 8) Allows opposition to run all over the case. Rolling over at any concern raised by GAL or opposing party. Hesitant to make any push for justice, or seek recompense. During retainment, it was pitched about the enjoyment of such cases, determination to follow through, and aggressive stance. This could be further from the truth. We were treated as another manila folder in the stack. The only thing we expected were emails detailing what "couldn't be accomplished", and lowering the bar on the "aggressive" representation promised from the outset. When contacting other law firms to represent in the appeal, it was clear they were "known" as having difficulties in family related cases, particularly Mrs. Barclay's counsel. You cannot win a case when all you do is waste time putting out the fires... VSB case been opened based on this representation.

    Maybe I'm not able to see the other reviews however if there aren't any then I'm shocked! In my…read morepersonal opinion, they are hands down the BEST attorneys you will ever find. They're on the pricey side yet you sometimes have to pay for what you get. They aren't like tv and movie lawyers that do ALL the work for you. Sometimes you have to do some research to provide to them and that's ok. Remember that although they make you feel as if you're their main client, you aren't, lol. They will focus solely on you while working on your case, just remember they have other clients as well and it's helpful to them if you can provide as much intel as possible. It's a team effort and believe me, you WANT them as part of your team. I truly cannot say enough praises towards them. The entire team, from reception all the way to the top! I'm sure I have gotten on Martha's nerves several times though she's never let me know lol, because when I get stressed I ask a ton of questions and I start to ramble without letting her speak. She has been direct, firm, but NEVER rude. Guiding me in a direct yet calming way. Times when I'm an emotional wreck and times when I'm in a calmed spirit. Showing me that she truly has our best interest in heart and definitely not in this only for money. She fights for what's best and what's right. And OMG, she's a force to be reckoned with in the courtroom. Very impressive. You do not want to be on the opposite side of her! And again, she does this for the love of the law and what's right. Not the almighty dollar, from what I've observed on many occasions. Something I find admirable in today's society. This is a law firm built on integrity and it shows. Recently I needed to call her in a panic trying to protect my youngest son. I didn't know she was walking out the door for court, yet she still took my call and answered my question quickly then informed me she couldn't talk to me anymore because she needed to drive to court. Of course in my panicked mind I felt blown off and a massive bother to her (in that blinded moment of mine) but that couldn't be furthest from the truth. She didn't have to take the call at all. I'm saying this to say, thats the type of lawyer and person she is. Even if she has literally one minute, she will give that minute to you. I 100% recommend this mother and son legal team and firm for all of your legal needs.

My other attorney I used the same day for another incident, talked to my spouses attorney who agreed that my spouse would drop her protective order against me if I dropped my protective order against my spouse so that we can have an amicable divorce. This attorney walked over to Tori and I and stated this to us. So I dropped my protective order, believing my spouse had dropped hers. Within seconds, Tori was escorting me into the courtroom for a protective order trial against me, by my spouse. My spouses attorney had lied to my other attorney, and yes this other attorney has recently confirmed this to me. Tori should not have let me enter the courtroom. I didn't understand what was going on. Tori let my star witness come into the courtroom so she couldn't testify on my behalf. A two year protective order was placed on me. I was put out of my home made homeless with my son and 2 dogs. I'm still not divorced due to the noncompiance of my spouses attorney not responding to or delivering requested documents upon my attorneys request. Tori Zicker has destroyed my life, financially and emotionally. I fired her right after the trial. I questioned, on that day, if she truly is an attorney! I don't know if she is with Friedmans Law Firm now, But she was when I had hired her. If she isn't still at Friedmans Law Firm, beware if you come across her name at any other law firms. She's most incompetent and should have her license revolked. Having just realized what really happened that day, I am in the process of taking legal action against Tori Zicker for legal malpractice.

Not only did we not go to trial as we asked her, we now don't even have our child an entire week. And to make it any worse I can't think of any advisement we got other than, "The judge is mad at us for filing our petition".

Amazing! Ms. Hartz and her staff guided me from day 1, gave me a list of things I need to accomplish in order to receive best outcome, always communicated any the updates in timely manner. What amazed me is that she took personal interest in my case and didn't give up when 1st verdict was 1st degree misdemeanor and suspended license, Ms. Hartz took my case to a different court and got the best possible outcome you can only imagine! I HIGHLY RECOMEND Ms. Hartz and her staff!!!!! AAA 10++++++

But, the first time with the Lindsay and she stepped up and looked out for us in every capacity and never let one stone go unturned! I feel like we went overboard on things because it wasn't our 1st time in this situation. She went well beyond reassuring us in every way that she had this, and she DID!! We kept custody and things worked out for the Best for the Child. If you need a good Family Lawyer call Lindsay!! The price was affordable. I read a review that said she was expensive and obviously they have never retained an Attorney!
