One of the best lawyers I know...

I first came across Mr. Foltz at the courthouse where I was struggling to get out of a very difficult eviction case for my tenants, who not only refuse to leave our premises, but also assaulted and threatened my family and I. Mr. Foltz overheard my conversation with the court clerk and offered to hel...p. He introduced himself and asked me to explain the situation, which I did. He immediately assured me that he will be willing to help. We discussed his fee, which was out of my budget so he offered to take the case at no charge. He understood how stressful my situation seemed and wanted to help. I was truly shocked and grateful. Since then, he maintained in contact with me and walked me through the process every step of the way. He also appeared to all the court dates with me and not once made me feel that he was doing me a favor by taking my case at no charge. We were able to finally get the tenants out of my property and the case was resolved in my favor with the help of Mr. Foltz. I’m forever grateful to him. He is hands down one of the best attorneys I know. I would highly recommend him to anyone who’s looking for a passionate and talented lawyer because he’s truly one of a kind.

Honest and Professional... Great Lawyer!

I rarely write reviews, but I wanted to share my positive experience with the Law Office of Patrick V. Foltz, P.C. Patrick represented me through a very complicated divorce case. He constantly kept me updated on the status of my case, and guided me through the entire process. He was very patient, an...d ALWAYS took the time to answer any question. Hopefully, no one will have to endure what I had to go through, but having Patrick Foltz as my lawyer, I was confident that I was being represented with honesty and integrity, which gave me a peace of mind throughout the entire process. He was determined to attain what I rightly deserved, and he was very successful. I was blessed with Patrick as my lawyer.

Excellent

Patrick clearly explained my options, the timeline for the case, and set good expectations. Patrick always seemed to have a good handle on my case/situation. I was repaid in full from my former tenant, including my attorney's fees.

Patrick V. Foltz

Since my son's case was for a school hearing, I felt that the outcome of the case was what I expected given that Mr. Foltz made sure that I was well informed of possible outcomes. Mr. Foltz made sure that I was aware of what could and could not happen regarding my sons case. So I went into the hear...ing with full knowledge of my sons rights. Mr. Foltz kept me abreast of all legal issues that I needed to be aware in the case. Mr. Foltz was knowledgable regarding all aspects of my son's case with the school board.Mr. Foltz answered all of my questions in a timely manner and efficient manner.The level of service was excellent. Mr. Foltz was professional at all times and I felt that he paid attention to the concerns that I had as a parent.

Great "Old Time" Lawyer

I have used Patrick several times for various legal issues. I chose him because I wanted a lawyer that would talk to me, return my phone calls and e-mails, could be reached for questions, and would take on my issues as if they were his own. I have heard of several law firms in Northern Virginia wher...e after the initial consultation and they have your money, they send your case off to entry-level lawyers to build up their "wins". I wanted to avoid this and Patrick's firm fit the bill perfectly. If you want a hometown, genuine lawyer who will provide you with personalized service, Patrick is your guy.
