Alan Plevy knows making a difference as a divorce attorney requires more than just understanding family law statutes. “Divorce law is like no other practice,” says Plevy, explaining that it is essential to at least be familiar and preferable to be an expert in other areas of law. “I have to know everything from tax law to real estate, contracts to estate planning. But being a good divorce attorney also means understanding the importance of listening to my clients as well as knowing all the players at the courthouse.” His practice areas include Civil Litigation, Domestic Relations; Child Custody; Adoptions; and all aspects of divorce. Additionally, he has argued a number of cases to the Court of Appeals in Virginia which are regularly cited as landmark precedent.

He was kind and compassionate
Mr. Plevy, Listened to me, especially since I did not want the divorce and not only very understanding, but had real sincere feelings. It was not what I was expecting. He was straight forward and was a tiger when he needed to be. He introduced me to a tax accountant that is terrific as well, which wa...

The worst - stay away!
Alan Plevy represented me on my divorce. I paid him close to $40,000 to prepare the Pendente Lite, all the filings and prepare a settlement. Near the court date and after my ex withdrew all of our retirement, Alan discovered he never entered the Pendente Lite into the court record after the hearing ...
Due to client confidentiality I am not permitted to respond in this forum. Going through a divorce whether with or without children in the best of circumstances is always stressful. I appreciate the difficulty that all clients have at this time and always take the time and effort to work with each individual so that the outcome of the case is the best possible result.
