I just want to say I’m truly grateful for the way Joanna handled my case. She was thoughtful, patient, and sharp—really on top of things from start to finish. What stood out to me most is how she stayed ahead of issues before they even had a chance to become problems, and made sure my needs were alwa...ys taken care of. Going through a divorce isn’t easy, but having someone in your corner who genuinely cares and knows exactly what they’re doing makes all the difference. Joanna isn’t just an excellent attorney—she’s a good person, and that meant a lot to me. I also appreciate the strong team she put together, which delivered ahead of schedule, on little notice. Thank You!!

I recently consulted with Joanna regarding my potential divorce, and I cannot say enough positive things about my experience. From the very beginning, she was warm, approachable, and genuinely understanding of the difficult and emotional circumstances I’m facing. She took the time to really listen to... my concerns, especially as they relate to my children, and made me feel heard and supported. At the same time, it was clear that Joanna is a fierce and capable advocate. She demonstrated a deep knowledge of the legal issues that could arise given my specific situation and thoughtfully walked me through the process, potential challenges, and realistic expectations. She explained everything in a way that was clear and reassuring, without minimizing the seriousness of what lies ahead. I left our consultation feeling empowered, informed, and confident that I would be in strong hands if I move forward with her representation. Most importantly, I felt assured that she would prioritize the best interests of both me and my children and guide us through this difficult chapter with both strength and compassion. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dedicated and effective divorce attorney.

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).

I had a consultation with Joanna regarding my divorce and I was very impressed with the level of professionalism, knowledge, and care shown throughout our conversation. She took the time to listen carefully to my concerns, explained the legal process in a clear and understandable way, and answered al...l of my questions with patience and honesty. I left the consultation feeling informed, confident, and clear about my next steps. I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone seeking guidance in family law matters.

Joanna brings her legal expertise into your reality and world, compassionately matching up your needs with her knowledge and expertise. She walks this unhappy process “with you,” patiently helping you navigate, what for me was a traumatic escape. She has immense experience, and seemed like a gu...ardian angel walking beside me, serving as oversight and protection, monitoring for my best interests while also respecting my values, beliefs, and wishes. She translated this legal process for me along the entire way, until completion, always looking out for and protecting my needs and interests.
