Maureen Ann Kersey

Maureen was the third lawyer with whom I spoke about my need to file for divorce. I chose Maureen to represent me because of her ability to look beyond the conversation toward what it may take to reach the objective. She was always attentive to my concerns and brought me back to focus when it seemed ...to me that the situation may be going sideways. She has a sense of compassion that managed to bring calm to a very stressful situation. She prepared me for any outcome; good, bad or indifferent. Maureen guided me through each step of the process so that I was included. I knew then as I know now that Maureen is a professional that displays a tremendous level of integrity, compassion, patience and interest in the task at hand.

From the moment of my first meeting with Maureen she made it clear she was in my corner and ready to go to bat. She was very nurturing and also a very strong, knowledgeable and talented attorney. She got me a very good result and did it in a way to where my ex husband and I are still friendly. She... and Teresa have even been very helpful with paperwork and advice after the whole process has been over.

I was very fortunate to have had the professional legal representation and support of Maureen Kersey and her staff. Maureen represented me in a complicated divorce matter. She presented the facts in a clear and concise manner. It was no surprise the judge ruled in my favor. However, my legal issue...s did not end there as the decision was appealed to the Virginia Appellate Court. Although this was an unexpected setback, I again retained Maureen to represent me in the Appeal. She again was well prepared, presented herself professionally and represented me with the intensity and fervor that makes her a top notch attorney. She successfully argued the case on my behalf and the Virginia Appellate Court upheld the original ruling. Throughout the proceedings, Maureen kept me well informed which was very important to me. She addressed all my questions and concerns in terms I could understand. Our discussions were mainly via telephone as I live and work in the Middle East with a 9-hour time difference. She was responsive and accommodating regardless of what time I was calling her. Her attention to detail is unsurpassed and I have no doubt her due diligence and positive hard-working attitude was instrumental in the "not once but twice" successful rulings of my case. I highly recommend Maureen Kersey to the full extent to include appellate proceedings.

I consulted with Maureen regarding obtaining a divorce settlement after consulting with two other attorneys in the Manassas area. I immediately felt that she understood the complexity of my situation and she proposed a realistic strategy for attempting to negotiate a fair settlement. The case was ver...y complicated and we attended many hearings regarding the case as my ex-husband was uncooperative and unpredictable. This was not a straight forward case. She was persistent and unrelenting when it came to fighting for my rights and for a fair settlement. Her knowledge of the law, case law, and her reputation with the judges I believe greatly assisted me in obtaining the settlement that was finally agreed upon. She comes highly recommended.
