A+++ Attorney

In my divorce, I needed trust, consistency, and communication. Valerie Anias not only provided me with everything I needed to accomplish this difficult situation, but was a true advocate and lead me through the stressful steps of a divorce with confidence, poise, integrity and kindness. Valerie and h...er associates were the absolute best decision I made when selecting my legal team!"

Amazing lawyer with a soul

Val came into my life by accident. She was recommended by a friend of a friend. I was just starting my divorce and I felt overwhelmed, uncertain, fearful, and stressed. I found myself in chaos and my first lawyer was making it worse. That lawyer had 23 years of experience, but amid the chaos, she exp...onentially added to my stress, and she was ringing up lawyer's fees. Enter Val. I did a consult with Val and she instantly made me feel at ease. She was clear and to the point. There was no fluff. Along with her care and compassion, her dedication, focus, and experience made me feel confident that I chose the right lawyer. She had a soul but she was focused on the best outcome for myself and my son. My case was filled with ups and downs and Val was right there. Lawyers will tell you that they are not your therapist and this is true. But when I was panicked and needed an answer fast, she was there. She responded to my worrisome questions with clear, concise answers IN WRITING. This is something the other lawyer would not do. Fast forward to my trial. Val was calm, calculated, and STRIDES ahead of the other lawyer who had more years of experience than she did. She blew him out of the water. The judge was even impressed by Val. I felt COMPLETELY confident with Val by my side. Completely. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone that needs a lawyer.

A Team

I met Valerie Anias when I was in the early stages of my divorce and was prayerful things would go accordingly. She assisted me through a difficult and contentious divorce and child custody case that went on for over a year. She was a beacon of hope to me when things appeared limited and impossible. ...Her calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and those I care about most. She was able to provide a great outcome when light seemed dimmed for so long. I am eternally grateful for her service and I hereby recommend Valerie without reservation.

My positive experience with Valerie Anias regarding my Child Support Modification case.

As a potential client seeking consult regarding child support, I was overwhelmed with the in-depth research in finding a lawyer that checked all the boxes on my want list. I had an initial phone consultation with Valerie Anias and I instantly felt relieved and reassured that not only was she the most... qualified lawyer for my case, but that she genuinely cared about me and my situation. I felt at ease talking to her, a feeling I did not have with the numerous other potential lawyers I had spoken with. Valerie, surpassed ALL my expectations, she was knowledgeable, self-confident, composed, and very personable. She gave me the assurance that I could relinquish my worries and that she would go to bat for me as her client, until I was happy with the outcome of my child support modification. Valerie’s resourceful knowledge, compassion for her client during an extremely stressful and sensitive time, and authoritative disposition during my hearing left me feeling thankful that she was my lawyer.
