Attorney Messman and Attorney Alleman are two outstanding lawyers in Virginia Beach. I had heard of…read moreand seen Attorney Messman in action, but never thought the day would come I would need her services. Yes it did. After meeting with her and explaining my legal situation she did exactly what she said she would. She told me the pros and cons of what to expect the outcome may be. There were no surprises. She did what she said she would do. She never left me hanging. On the final court date Attorney Alleman stepped in and he was well aware of the status of the case. It seen like he was there from day one. We came out of the court room all smiles as VICTORY was ours! I highly recommend Messman-Alleman Law Firm to anyone looking for excellent lawyers.

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!

I cannot say enough about Mary and Abigail and the time they took to walk through this whole process with me the last 3 years of it.

At our initial consultation, he was direct and realistic…read moreabout what to expect - he made no promises about the outcome and gave a clear assessment of my options and what he thought was achievable. I hired him immediately. His skill in negotiating on my behalf along with keeping me informed through the entire process led to an outcome that was better than I expected.

I don't anticipate ever having to hire him again, but should I require an attorney, he's my first call.

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.

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. You should think about having those not-so-fun conversations with your elders or spouse about their wishes if something were to happen to them. 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. The expense of having them draw up a Trust is minimal, compared to what it could cost by having to go through probate. The Dickerson & Smith Law Group is dedicated to assisting you with your estate planning. When my wife and I had our Trust drawn up, their associate team were all consummate professionals. 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. It gave us a piece of mind knowing we can sleep well at night, without worrying about how our assets are distributed in the event of our passing.

I wanted to do this because when I was sexually assaulted and made a police report the police left me more damaged then the actual assault and I didn't want that to happen to my daughter and I was willing to pay to make sure she wasn't re-victimized. What I got was told that the school wasn't liable and if the boy who committed the assault didn't have any money then it would be a waste of time to pursue civil case. I was not trying to sue anyone I just wanted a warm and fuzzy that if the police started to mistreat my daughter with questions that blame the victim my lawyer would put them back on track. That is all I wanted and I would have willing paid for what he considered a waste of his time.
