I am very dissatisfied with this lawyer who handled my divorce and child custody. I felt he was…read moreunresponsive to my concerns, often leaving me uninformed about crucial developments. I do not feel this attorney seemed committed to fighting for my interests, especially not challenging erroneous/misleading statements by my ex-wife, for which I had hard evidence to refute. I believe he failed to present crucial evidence in court, and failed to cross examine the Guardian ad Litem, who had information that was critical and would have affected the outcome. Ultimately, I did not secure a fair custody arrangement for my children. Throughout the entire divorce process drawn out over 2 years, I felt frustrated and disregarded despite paying truly exorbitant legal fees.

UPDATE: I got what I…read morewanted and what I KNEW was in the best interest of my children. I thought it was settled, nope. My Ex filed again for the exact same thing, EXACT same thing. I sent it over to Mike (this time, more irritated than worried). I KNOW I'm in good hands, I stressed alot less after having him. We finally appeared for the judge to decide if we need to go to trial again, Mike shut it down immediately. He was slick and smooth and knew exactly what to use. It was literally magic.No shit. I had to literally jump for joy once the court room's doors closed. Mike was happy that I was happy and I saw it right then and there, he gave a shit. Not only cause WE won but because he made his client happy. I've heard horror stories about Lawyers costing people an arm & a leg and still not being happy with results. That wasn't the case- Mike was very reasonable and honest. I appreciate that. He was very upfront about the costs of things and didn't bs around it. I'm VERY happy with what I received and it was worth every penny. He truly does provide quality service. All BS aside, Mike knows what he's doing. Stop stressing, make your life easier and just hire him. You WON'T regret it. I promise! Now understand this is in the courts hands and all depends on the mood the judge wakes up in but Mike is your best fucking chance. He will ALWAYS be my go to. ALWAYS. Thanks again Mike, for everything! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you

First, Donald genuinely cares about his clients and focuses on getting the best results. Secondly, Donald is experienced. He's in that courtroom everyday and has a great predictability in how the judges think. Donald is very wise. While polite to his judicial adversaries, Donald does not cringe in tough situations. We're talking about a U.S. Army Lt. Colonel who survived the jungles of Vietnam. In a word, Donald wins. And his legal fees are reasonable. Donald doesn't not nickel and dime like many other lawyers. He'll give you a fee and all the courtroom appearances, phone calls, letters written, photo copies, etc. are under that umbrella. If you have a moment of pause on the legal fees, look at this way -what would be cost of judgements that don't go your way. Donald successfully thwarted opposing lawyer attempts for me to pay their client's legal fees. That alone save me tens of thousands of dollars. He won monetary judgements for me that I had not asked. What you're getting with Mr. Daugherty is client honesty, solid legal knowledge, and decades of daily courtroom experience. Donald cares about his clients and he wins. Donald is a rare, affordable super lawyer and you want this man representing you.

Worst decision I ever made…read more If you want a divorce lawyer that doesn't know the law, that doesn't have time for your case, that doesn't understand the impacts of divorce on veteran's benefits (despite "specializing" in military divorce), that cannot make a coherent argument, that won't even answer your emails when the court loses your divorce decree for a month...Then you should hire Jamel Rowe at Livesay & Myers. She is, in short, completely incompetent and her response to being overwhelmed by her job is to ignore her client. She gave me terrible advice from the beginning, mishandled the actual trial, was hoodwinked by opposing counsel either for lack of attention or incompetence or both. I finally had to make demands of her superiors to get a basic response when the court lost my divorce and no one knew what the judge's final decision was. Hiring Jamel Rowe of Livesay & Myers was probably the the most catastrophically bad decision I have ever made; one I will be paying for quite literally for the rest of my life.

We each had less than an hour that was good for them because Charles was ready to mop the floor with him. Charles did his homework before the case he actually caught another lie while in court and went back up to question him about it. I am so so happy with the results. Put his name in Chatgpt lol. If you are looking for an attorney who is intelligent, organized, strategic, and truly prepared to fight for you in court, I would absolutely recommend Charles Shumaker.

It is difficult to put into words how grateful I am for Mary Elizabeth White and the work she did…read moreon my behalf. During one of the most painful and challenging seasons of my life -- a long and exhausting custody battle that ultimately went all the way to the Virginia Court of Appeals -- Mary Elizabeth stood beside me with strength, wisdom, and unwavering dedication. From the very beginning, she believed in my case and fought tirelessly to make sure my voice was heard. Family court can be incredibly overwhelming, especially when emotions are high and the stakes involve the well-being of your child. Mary Elizabeth handled every challenge with professionalism, intelligence, and confidence. What meant the most to me was not only her legal expertise but also her compassion. She understood that behind every case is a family and a person trying to hold their life together. During moments when I felt discouraged or afraid, she remained steady and determined, and her advocacy made all the difference. Because of her hard work and commitment, we prevailed in a case that helped protect my daughter's stability and future. I will always be grateful for the role she played during such an important chapter of my life. Mary Elizabeth White is not only an exceptional attorney but also a person of integrity who truly fights for her clients. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, dedicated, and compassionate advocate. See Mastoras v. Mastoras, Virginia Court of Appeals (June 10, 2008) With sincere gratitude, Rebecca Michael ~ Formally Rebecca Mastoras

Communication was regular and friendly from either Andrew or his administrative team. He has a good rapport with area judges, which helps to determine how he will argue your case. He even gives a repeat customer discount (though I wish I didn't have knowledge of that...). Don't forget to do your homework and follow through with any driving school programs he recommends. If you don't, Dawn will remind you! Disclaimer: Just drive safely...hopefully you'll never need Andrew at all!
