Posted by Gary | March 31, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Child Custody Hearing

“I normally don’t write reviews but decided to enter this one based on my experience with the staff at Salvado, Salvado & Salvado. When you hire a professional firm to represent you, you expect professional level service. When you hire Salvado, Salvado & Salvado you get so much more. Soon Ei Swee...ney and the rest of the team were beyond professional. She took the time to understand the issues and clearly looked after our best interests and time while introducing a successful approach… and brought the matter to closure quickly. Communications were timely and often enough without being overwhelming. Soon Ei was very conscience of the costs and did everything possible to keep the fees under control. In 2006 Soon Ei was able to help me gain successfully visitation for my daughter from a bitter mother content on not allowing me access to her. In 2015 I went back Ms. Sweeney when circumstances said I needed to gain custody of my then 12 year old child. We put together a plan and I was able to successfully gain custody of my daughter and move her from Gaithersburg , MD to Northern , VA. In 2016 I was taken back to court again by the mother of my daughter as she attempted to regain custody. The normally mild mannered Soon Ei Sweeney became super woman before my eyes and once again win the case. She’s smart, Confident and affordable and will always be part of our extended family going forth. When I need a law firm in the future I certainly hope that Soon Ei and her staff are available.” –
