Posted by anonymous | November 15, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Your better off representing yourself!!!!

I had Lorrie Sinclair represent me in a child custody case which now I don’t think is her strong suite!! We got to court on my trail date and she was pretty much winging it no strategy or game plan!! Needless to say court definitely didn’t turn out how she confidently thought it would and should have... ! A lot of time and money wasted, that now another lawyer has to try to undo her damage!! I would give ZERO stars if I could !!!!! Please don’t waste your time or money by having her represent you on something as important as your children DONT DO IT

Excellent Attorney!!! I Highly Recommend

If you’re looking for a well-respected and highly intelligent Attorney to represent you, there is no need to look any further. I would, without a doubt, highly recommend Ms. Lorrie A. Sinclair, Esquire to anyone seeking legal advice or representation. Ms. Sinclair showed the highest professionalism... and expertise with regards to my representation in a traffic case. Ms. Sinclair maintained communication with me from the time I requested her services until we left the court room. With her guidance and suggested recommendations for actions I needed to take prior to my court date, she was able to dramatically decrease my traffic charge as well as all potential fines. She’s definitely on my speed dial in the event I need her services again, or if someone I know needs the services of an excellent Attorney!

Exemplary Small Business Support

Esq. Sinclair aided in supporting my small business with service contract language. She was timely, professional, very knowledgeable, and challenged me to “think out of the box” in developing a comprehensive service-based contracting strategy to support my business relationships. Kudos to Esq. Sincla...ir and the entire Biberaj, Snow, & Sinclair Law firm for their outstanding achievements, involvement in the community, and excellent professional legal services.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I give Ms. Sinclair my absolute highest recommendation. Lorrie is as passionate a litigator as I have ever come across. She fights for her clients, and is well respected throughout the courtrooms and courthouses of Virginia. I have had occasion to observe her in action, and it is a sight to see. She is a proven courtroom warrior, that obtains fantastic results for her clients. Above and beyond everything I have just said, the thing I find most striking about Lorrie is how humble she is. She is perhaps the most approachable attorney that I have ever met, and her kindness and thoughtfulness are on a level of their own. In addition to being a fighter, and obtaining great results for her clients, the one thing that I find as her most redeeming trait is that she is a very nice person. I cannot say enough good things about Lorrie, I give her my highest recommendation."

She always displayed great character, was well versed in the law and successful in her cases. In addition to her skills as a counselor of the law, she is compassionate and mindful of her client's needs. She is definitely someone you want on your team."

"Laurie is a highly respected member of the local bar. Her career path, personal background, legal skills, and integrity are the basis for her having been appointed a Substitute Judge by the Circuit court of Loudoun County, a job for which she receives high marks from those who have appeared before her. She is a credit to our bar, and I am thankful her untiring service to fellow lawyers, her clients and the community."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
