Best Attorney in the DMV

Most people loathe hearing from lawyers, a sentiment I certainly share, with the exception of Aaron Christoff. He treated my case and myself with genuine compassion, care, and kindness that I’ve never experienced before from an attorney. Amidst the mayhem and distress of family legal proceedings,... I couldn’t suggest a more apt lawyer to retain for counsel. Without Aaron’s sensitivity, support, and emotional intelligence, I would’ve been far more miserable throughout my case. Furthermore, he possesses an extraordinarily vast knowledge of divorce laws in the DMV and a strategic mind that allows him to produce the most optimal results in any given case, regardless of its complexity. My situation was unprecedentedly nuanced, and Aaron maintained a professional demeanor and levelheaded attitude during every issue. Compared to other divorce lawyers, his rates are strikingly affordable, particularly given his rapid, thorough, and informative responses. Aaron works to ensure that his clients are not left with an additional burden of high billing that creates financial stress for families during an already painful time. Aside from my personal experience with him, Aaron’s position on the Fairfax Bar Association Legislative Committee proves that he sincerely strives to help his clients and improve the legal system for every individual in the area. Aaron is a phenomenal attorney and person, and I highly recommend him to anyone needing counsel.

Couldn't recommend more strongly!

Aaron is the first lawyer I would hire in divorce, prenup, or any family law matter. He represented me in my military divorce and I cannot speak highly enough of him. He is prompt with communication and responses, professional, pleasant and humorous, gets to the point quickly, and is understanding ...of the pressures and time commitments on the client's end. He does not overcharge and keeps his billables in mind at all times, which cannot be said of most divorce lawyers. Furthermore, he does his research and gets the right answer for you, and always has your best interest at heart. His paperwork is solid, he has a good relationship with the courts and counsel in the local jurisdictions, and all in all, he made this as painless a process as possible for me. Aaron is a busy lawyer but he is organized, efficient, and runs his office well. Highly recommend!
