Today I served for jury duty and I saw Ms. Commander in the circuit court building. We road the elevator together. Funny she doesn't even recognize her own clients. I own my property and she allowed my ex to get 50,000 while he never contributed to the welfare of he home, he is not even own he deed. I paid 9,000 estimated to her and still paying! She did not recognize me because she had no intentions of helping me. Could it be that I am African -American? She never sit down and tried to understand , heck, I never meet her! I felt bullied and cheated. Please see the red flags! I had a lawyer who did not care, and could give a hen's egg about my child or us having a home to live in. My ex was abusive, narcissistic and down right hateful. Please pick a lawyer who gives a dam!

This review is long overdue. Attorney Plumlee was recommended to me by my personal trainer. One of…read morehis clients had great success with him, so I scheduled an appointment. To be very clear, this review is my opinion and my experience only. Thankfully, I did not retain him to represent me in a divorce. Initially, I sat and began explaining why I was there. The minute I called my spouse "my spouse," he took on a totally different demeanor than during our cordial introduction. He went as far as to tell me in no uncertain terms how off-put he was that I referred to my "spouse" that way because it was cold and distant (this is not verbatim because it has been over a few years). He did not take the time to understand what would cause a person to use that verbiage about the person she was married to, and our appointment quickly ended. Had Mr. Plumlee taken the time to find out that my ex was a serial philanderer, a textbook narcissist, a serial family deserter, a verbal abuser, an absent father and husband, a nasty alcoholic, and a scammer, I would like to think that he would have responded differently. What put my ex above the rest is the fact that when my oldest daughter was diagnosed with cancer, he decided it would be a good time to jump ship (shut our business down and leave my daughter with no health coverage [she was an employee]) and move on with his life. However, Mr. Plumlee had no interest in discussing the case further, so we never got to the meat of the matter. I made sure after that encounter that I never recommended him as an attorney to who I would give my valuable time and money.

We had swapped from another attorney, also known in the area, to try a chance with Mr. Pugh after using the services of his partner, Mr. Karpov (who's equally impressive), and it was the best decision we could have made. Our previous lawyer was very hesitant and submissive in their advice to us each time an issue occurred which was frustrating. In contrary, Mr. Pugh was straight to the point and confident while seamlessly rolling with the punches in action. He advised us realistically and in a style that matched my husband's needs and made us feel secure walking into the court. Mr. Pugh won our case, allowing our family to move on from stressful times in a fair but satisfactory manner.

When you have the loss of a friend and or a family member, you will have an awakening. You will find out quickly that you aren't truly prepared for that person's passing.

Think about everything that involves gathering one's personal property and assets. If you don't have a Will, General Power of attorney, Special Needs, Guardianship, Advance Medical Directive, Joint financial/monetary accounts, and or co-ownership of any assets. You may seriously want to think about having a Living Trust established. Don't be afraid to hire someone who specializes in family planning. The Dickerson & Smith Law Group located in Virginia Beach, VA. is a law firm you can depend on.

Thank You, Dickerson & Smith Law Group, and I like to give Mr. D. Dickerson Jr. Esq. a special thank you for his counsel and for establishing our family's living trust.
