Sharon Voyles Filipour

I could not have asked for a better outcome and more importantly a better lawyer. Mrs. Sharon Filipour is fantastic and is in my opinion the best divorce lawyer in North Virginia. My top reasons why Mrs. Filipour is the best choice for divorce proceedings: 1. My interests were her priority. ...I had some non-negotiable issues that she fought for and I was eventually awarded in the divorce settlement. She listened, she listened and then she listened more. She understood what was important to me in these proceedings and in the end I got what I most wanted... my kids. 2. She found a solution. After my initial meeting with her, she took all the emotionally charged narrative I provided her and put it into a simple plan. I left on day one with a clear understanding of the path forward to a fair and realistic resolution. 3. Unquestionable integrity. Kindly told me when I was wrong and gave me honest opinions which allowed me to form realistic expectations. 4. Incredibly intelligent. She navigated through the negotiations with ease and confidence. She was able to thoroughly assess the situation, find an appropriate response, and deliver the message effectively. Clearly this was not her first case.. 5. Cost effective and well worth every penny. Her rates are fair and she maximized her efforts and minimized my costs in the long run. My first lawyer was 3x times her cost who kept adding additional services like Private Investigators, mediators, requesting frivolous depositions, mental health counselors, and fee on top of fee for various services. I felt like I was being swindled. Mrs. Filipour, on the other hand, charged me for what was necessary and respected my financial situation. Best of all, I received a very positive outcome saving thousands, if not millions, of my future earnings. I respected that she never took advantage of my vulnerability by recommending third party solutions “I know a guy” or added costs because I communicated an opportunity. 6. She knows how to win. I was amazed at her ability to out wit and out maneuver the opposing lawyer. At times providing him solutions that he agreed with solely based on her delivery. It was incredible to watch her walk through this process so confidently and almost effortlessly. 7. She cares. She truly took an interest in my kids and I. Offered solutions to dilemmas I faced while going through this emotionally draining situation. Very empathetic and just kind. She’s a truly wonderful and caring person. Mrs. Filipour is someone you want in your foxhole (I’m retired Army Officer) when you’re fighting for what is most important to you (your kids) and have everything you have worked for all your life on the line. She provided me exceedingly competent knowledge and insight in divorce case law and did so in a way that helped me tremendously in one of the most trying times in my life. I am forever grateful to Mrs. Filipour!

Sharon Filipour is simply an excellent and caring attorney. She listens very carefully to her client and makes a whole picture of the situation first. Then, she checks the chances of litigating versus agreement, a great way to save her clients money and time. Another fascinating aspect of Sharon Fili...pour's work is her warm and human way of thinking. I truly believe Sharon is a fantastic attorney and recommend her without any reservations whatsoever to other clients who might consider her as their attorney. Sharon never lets her clients alone. All I said is based on my personal experience with her for my divorce and child custody. Than you Sharon so sincerely.

Sharon saved my life! She is fair, direct and very thorough. Sharon was able to take my very difficult case and stick with me through to the favorable outcome for me and my children. She understood the issues and was fair and demonstrates respect for all while doing the right thing in regard to the l...aw. Sharon is an excellent communicator and is able to work with family members graciously and with heartfelt intent, keeping her client's best interests in mind but not trying to be self serving and she is very fair with fees and payments. She understands the emotional side and the financial implications and devastations of divorce. Without Sharon's expertise I would have been destitute. I cannot say enough good things about her and how she cared enough to help me. She was truly a godsend. I recommended her to others who asked me for a lawyer.

Going through a divorce is a painful experience, even more so when the lines of communication are broken. Throughout the process, Sharon Filipour gave me sound advice, making sure I understood my rights, but giving me time to process the information and decide what was best for me. She is very good a...t listening and getting to know her client, and works hard at defending his/her interests without imposing her views. She is very knowledgeable, patient, and above all kind and caring. She also has a great sense of humor, which helps tremendously to get through the most difficult parts. Her depth of knowledge about the law and her understanding of my position and concerns made working with her rather easy. Sharon is very civil but will not hesitate to fight for you in court if necessary.

I met Sharon in a courtroom when I was finalizing my divorce that I mistakenly decided to do it without any legal advice. She quickly volunteered to help me with the final questions in front of the judge. Who in this world will have the warmth heart to volunteer without expecting anything in return? ...Only a lawyer who has a real passion for her job. Months later, I realized that a lot of things were left out from the divorce documents and my ex-husband was filing for custody. I contacted Sharon and she was able to organize, find solutions and better options for my case. She helped me file for child support and set a fair and detail visitation agreement. My case was complicated due to the other party not cooperating and asking for far too much. But she helped me going through it, giving excellent advice, realistic expectations, and at the end even the opposing counsel thanked her. I will always be thankful for her precious support and help during that painful part of my life.
