You can save yourself the time (and money) of booking consultations with half the Family Law attorneys in Northern Virginia like I did trying to find the perfect investment for your child(ren)— just call Nathan Olson and Jamie Shaw. Out of everyone I spoke with, these two immediately stood out for be...ing knowledgeable, reasonable, honest, and fair. From start to finish, they never disappointed. I have an existing custody case in Florida, but my child’s mother tried to stir the pot by filing actions in Virginia, which at first the courts were entertaining since the mother was leaving out our existing case. Nathan and Jamie instantly understood the jurisdiction issue, broke everything down clearly, and moved fast. Long story short — they got the case dismissed, exactly what I wanted. And at the hearings, let’s just say my ex and the lady representing her got dog-walked with professionalism and precision. If you want lawyers who actually know what they’re doing, tell it to you straight, and get results without overcharging you, Nathan Olson and Jamie Shaw are the team. They deliver both results and peace of mind and that’s priceless in family law.

Nathan Olsen managed my custody case and he executed the case flawlessly. He would give you advice on what to expect and he is unusually blunt is managing expectations. He is VERY articulate and can would counter the opposing attorney when they try to be clever. His combination punches would floor a...ny attorney that try to play dirty. I would recommend Mr. Olsen for anyone who need an attorney that would manage you case and explain the process in a very clear manner. --Godwin.

Nathan was incredibly well prepared, well-versed, and able to navigate an extremely difficult (perhaps unprecedented) set of cases. Dealing with an ex-wife, a biological child, a non-biological custodial child, a biological father for that custodial child, and many other nuances, Nathan was able to n...avigate all of those circumstances and was able to win both of my cases. At every step he was clear in explaining what he thought the best course of action would be and why. He was honest in his assessment of what was likely to occur (and was correct in each and every case). He was everything you could ever hope for in a lawyer and I couldn't have been more fortunate to have hired him. Well worth the price.

I connected with Nathan's firm after an internet search and was connected with him as a part of my divorce in 2013. My particular situation was hostile, fast moving and complicated by both children and the poor advice I received from a previous lawyer. Nathan changed everything for me --- he immediat...ely provided me with helpful realistic guidance on the many issues I faced. He explored my situation with me and with his firm, always providing clear, thoughtful perspectives while outlining the pros & cons of my decision making; never promising an outcome, never failing to offer his recommendations on the best possibilities of what were often only mediocre & bad outcomes. He made me feel comfortable with the process and trade-offs at every stage. Six years later, Nathan continues to assist me through financial, custodial and procedural issues. I am grateful for Nathan's service to me and my family. My life is in a better place as a direct result of his professional and thoughtful approach to me and my challenges.
