I recently went through a very difficult divorce and during that time Ms. Foard not only help me navigate through this hardship, but her consideration and diligence to my case helped me come to a suitable conclusion and saved me thousands of dollars in the long term. I highly recommend her to anyone ...looking for a lawyer.

Joanna Foard misrepresented me.My request was to have my Alimony payments reinstated. Ms. Joanna Foard only needed to write a letter to the opposing Counsel/ Lawyer for him to comply with the Court's decision to pay me Alimony. Ms. Joanna Foard inverted and reduced the alimony and she CANCELLED a...ll alimony payments with no explanation. Then she moved to another Law firm. Ms. Joanna Foard have discriminated me and used my personal information to move ahead. I have filed a Ethical Complaint to the Virginia Bar Association. For writing a simple letter to instate my alimony payments but cancelling, Ms. Joanna Foard charged me more than US 10.000.00. ( ten thousand dollars).

Joanna came highly recommended from a women’s group on FB. She took me on very quickly after I requested her services and made it a point to see me face to face via video-chat from the beginning and lowered her minimum retainer fee for me. She was super accommodating and it felt like I had a close al...ly on my side the entire time as she combed through my proposed divorce settlement agreement and came up with proposals that would be in my best interest that even I had not thought of. She followed up each step of the way, even while she was on vacation and always made me feel like a person, a friend even. As kind as she was with me, she fearlessly fought for my rights. I never felt like I was just a client or a walking checkbook. She and her team were very patient when it took longer than expected for me to get my settlement payment in order to pay her in turn. I would hire her again in a heartbeat, she truly tried to make this whole process as painless as possible and we never had to go to court. I have already recommended her to others and even my ex said I had an excellent lawyer and that he would consider her services if he ever needed them.

Joanna is an extremely strategic, dedicated, driven, smart, and thoughtful lawyer! I came to her from another lawyer when my divorce was very stalled. She breathed new life into my case and she and I worked together to get my stalling ex husband to move forward and ultimately become divorced. She is ...always very responsive, and she's upbeat and kind! At multiple points in the process, we discussed strategies for moving forward, and she ALWAYS had my best interest in mind. I had one child, and Joanna was always helping me select the best path forward to get the custody I wanted. She was also always mindful of the expenses--always taking care to do the best thing for my case, but not waste money frivolously. A truly honest lawyer! I highly recommend her to anyone! In the end, I did get the custody I wanted, so thank you Joanna!
