Ann Luu is an amazing attorney for family law.

I was recently presented with a complicated Child support modification problem that potentially involved three states due to parent moves from the original state order. I went into the call thinking I understood what needs to happen if my ex-spouse requests a child support modification. Ann's adv...ice was not what I was expecting. It was an enormous learning curve understanding the law and requirements. She explained the laws of Virginia and directed me which questions I need to ask to the other state attorneys. After confirming with legal consults from all three states, I feel I have a better understanding what the process is and how to handle any future litigation. Her advice started the entire process and direction forward. Ultimately, I hope we can find a solution between ourselves - the parents. If we cannot, I have solid guidance on the steps necessary to modify a child support order when parents have moved from the original state. If the time comes to retain Ann, I will not hesitate to call her. Ann has a firm understanding of Family law and complicated situations that arise in an increasing mobile society. Thanks Ann. It is the best consult I had in the 8 years of divorce litigation and modifications.

Highly recommend Ms. Ann Luu as your attorney. My outcome far exceeded my expectations.

Ms. Ann Luu is an excellent family Lawyer. My first consultation with Ann to discuss about my situation, I knew, she is someone with competent, knowledgeable compassionate, integrity and honest. She was greatest attorney to work with, the counsel that I needed. She is empathetic, knowledgeable, and ...professional. She guided me through the complex ordeal, gives expert advice, prompts to address any issues and solved problems quickly in the cost effective way. She constantly stayed in contact to keep me informed of what was going on and what I needed to expect. She was always there for me; she followed up, prompts in getting back to me if I have any question and remain patient, supports me the entire times and kept me informed throughout the process. I could say that I had one of the most professional services possible. I’m glad of choosing Ms. Luu as my Lawyers who is committed talent and expertise to safeguard my future. There are no words to express my gratitude for her service. I have many thanks to Ann for her professionalism, patience, attentiveness and compassion throughout this long process.

Exceptional

Ann Luu is amazing at her job. She helped my mother (who could not speak English) through an extremely difficult divorce case that lasted almost four years, due to my father's brutal and relentless efforts to prevent my mother from receiving spousal support and even trying to get her to leave the cou...ntry. Ann handled all aspects of the case, from preparation to court hearings, intelligently, calmly, and professionally no matter what was thrown our way. All of her work, knowledge, and experience, led to the best possible outcome for my mother. Not only do I have respect for what she does as an attorney, I also have great respect for the person that she is. I would recommend her to anybody who is looking for a compassionate, patient, and highly competent family law attorney who will be dedicated and attentive to your unique case.

Overcoming obstacles to get a great result

This past year + has been the most difficult of my life. My ex-wife made many false accusations against me because she did not want to share custody of our daughter and wanted to abscond with my child to another country. Ann crafted a meticulous long-term strategy to win our case. While it required p...atience and months of stress, it was the only way I would have a chance to regain more custody of my child, a fair spousal support outcome, and most importantly protections for my daughter. Ann was absolutely correct and in the end I was able to get as much custody as was possible in this case, a fair spousal support outcome, and most importantly safeguards that protect my daughter from international child abduction. Ann was great in developing time management strategies for our trials, excellent witness lists and questions, and most importantly excellent cross examinations of my ex to catch her in her many lies. Ann showed great professionalism and patience, even when we had unfavorable, unreasonable, and biased judges. She was always honest and straightforward with me about what likely outcomes were and what we could do to achieve the best possible outcomes. Ann also utilized her team at Kelly Byrnes and Danker to support the case as needed. I felt like the entire firm cared deeply about helping me get the best outcome possible. Even after my divorce was finalized and I continue to experience difficulties with my ex, Ann has been there for me to protect my rights and to give me confidence going forward that I will get through these next 15 years of raising my child with an unwilling co-parent. I highly recommend Ann!

Outstanding and amazing service

From the first meeting, Ann assured me that my case would be resolved and gave me the advice to protect myself financially and what items to document for the possibility of a divorce proceeding being filed. Ann’s professional guidance and advice was always in my best interests when I thought of letti...ng my ego take over and ask about just skipping the mediation process and taking my case to court she explained the consequences of that decision and why she felt that was not in my best interest but always left the decision on how to proceed up to me. Ann was always prepared even when dealing with numerous delays in receiving documents and not receiving first settlement offer at 5 PM on Friday with Mediation at 10 am Monday I always felt that we were prepared. The settlement terms are virtually identical to the terms Ann discussed at our first meeting by saying if you can get close to these terms sign before they change their mind. I am not sure I could have received a better settlement but know it could have been much worse.
