Travis was wonderful! I had a pretty horrendous situation that required immediate action. He acted promptly and swiftly and was able to get a hearing to temporarily rectify the matter. His advice and attention to detail was definitely on point and it was a pleasure working with him.

Underrated brilliance - Thank you Travis!
Travis is sharp as a tack, with integrity to match. I feel so lucky to have found in him an attorney who aligned with my values and approach. The other side went low and they went dirty, but I always felt comforted having Travis' quiet confidence on my side. From the first meeting, I was instantly impressed he showed more breadth of knowledge than attorneys who were all double to triple his rates. It was truly a breath of fresh air to meet an attorney as smart and honest as he was (dare I say a rarity). He is a class act and represents everything an exemplary attorney could be. I really pat myself on the back for hiring him!

Child Custody/Visitation case
I retained Travis for a child custody modification case. Travis is very thorough, courteous, and professional. Throughout the whole process he kept me well informed and always provided me with timely services. He made sure we were always prepared for court, and never skipped a beat when it came to clearly explaining how he would proceed to get the best outcome in court for my situation. I would definitely hire Travis services again, and highly recommend him to anyone searching for a great lawyer. Thank you once more Travis for taking my case on, and doing a job well done.

An answer to prayer...
Mere words will never fully express the anxiety I experienced when it became apparent that an attorney would be needed in my case, with less than a week before the court date. Sheer panic overwhelmed me, as I begin to search frantically for a reputable law firm. The attorney that I had previously worked with would no longer be able to represent me, due to the nature of their subsidized services, and the fact that I had finally been blessed recently with stable employment. My new income did not qualify within their minimum guidelines. Mr. Van Hook was highly recommended and although I was naturally concerned at first, any remaining doubt was immediately alleviated at our first meeting.
Travis is gifted with that innate ability to convey any legal situation with genuine integrity and compassion. There was never a moment where I felt alone, or uneducated on the various possible outcomes in my case. During the trials, Mr. Van Hook remained poignant, professional, and able to consistently litigate a solid argument; which ultimately prevailed in front of three separate Judges.
I cannot fathom any legal situation, requiring a Family Law attorney, which does not invoke some sense of hardship, grief, and downright emotional toil. Travis became the light on the darkest of days. Without his guidance and expertise, the best interest of my child would never have been represented. As a single father, the road to justice can be daunting and even bias at times. Mr. Van Hook navigated these obstacles with an unsurpassed passion that has undoubtedly become an answer to prayer.

Smart guy, easy to talk to, great listener. He gets it and is a very hard worker.
I gladly hired Mr. Travis to handle my Divorce case, this is the first time I file for a divorce so he took the time to explain to me how it works and how we should proceed. His fees were very reasonable compared to other lawyers in Virginia. He is a very knowledgeable and competent lawyer, working fast and efficient to go through the divorce papers. Mr. Travis was almost always available when I would call the office to discuss issues regarding my case. If he wasn't available he would call back as soon as possible.

Professional, caring and fair
Travis is very honest and compassionate. I used his services on 2 different occasions within the last 5 years and saw him grow into a very strong professional. He is very good at listening and truly understanding your needs and won't spend needless time and money. He will fight for you and the best interest of your kids. I cannot recommend Travis highly enough if you are facing a difficult time of divorce and need a caring yet very strong attorney who's truly looking out for you.

Amzing Lawyer
A lawyer with passion who knows his craft. I have utilized Mr. Van Hook's services and all I can say that he is to the point and very articulate lawyer. He kept us on the point. Every time we digress he brought us back to reality. We were thinking emotionally and he guided us logically. I am impressed with his knowledge. First I was concerned knowing how young he is but he amazed us with his knowledge of the subject.
I highly recommend Mr. Travis Ryan Van Hook for family law.
