Excellent Customer Service

I first contacted Clint to form an LLC. I'd never hired a lawyer before and was a little nervous that it would be hard to find someone I could trust. In an initial phone consultation, Clint spent quite a bit of time explaining the process to me and patiently answered all of my questions. He also told... me that they operate on flat fees, so I would know upfront what I would expect to pay. As a small business with limited financial resources, that was a HUGE incentive for me. Once I decided to move forward with the formation, I met with Clint to discuss details and finish paperwork. He was kind, knowledgeable and made sure all the details were in order. Everything went smoothly and shortly thereafter I officially had an LLC. Just a few months after I formed my company, I decided to change the name of my business. I wasn't sure where to start and was dreading what I thought would be a huge headache. So I contacted Clint's office again to see if they could help me. Clint's paralegal, Courtney, has been amazing in the process. She's walked me through exactly what I have to do myself as the operating manager and what they can do for me as my registered agent. Her guidance has made this process 100x simpler. Her patience, attention to detail and excellent communication has been absolutely amazing. If you're looking for a lawyer you can trust with excellent customer service, I'd highly recommend Clint and his team.

Construction project 2011

I felt very comfortable working with Clint. He didn't hesitate to give me advice and to tell me he would be in touch with the other parties as needed,and all this was a very good experience for me.He saved my wife & I alot of money, time,and future problems. He put our mind at ease.The building proje...ct was finished much quicker than it would have been if we had not put our trust in him.

Prompt Excellent Service

As a CPA I refer my business and individual clients to Mr. Sellers for a variety of legal needs. He is always polite, prompt and effective and my clients and I are happy with the results

Sellers is an Excellent Estate Planning Attorney

Mr. Sellers is the most capable attorney in the Harrisonburg and Rockingham county areas. He assisted me with creating and signing a will and was not only thorough and very attentive to detail but also friendly. He always listened patiently to my questions and concerns and made sure the will accompli...shed everything I needed. I liked that the estate planning consultation was no-pressure and at no-charge. I also like that Mr. Sellers's office conducted the signing ceremony for my will so I did not have to worry about finding a notary or wondering if my will would be properly executed. I would definitely recommend Mr. Sellers to anyone who is looking for help with a will, trust, power of attorney, or advance medical directive. I know he practices real estate and business law, too.

Proffesional and Helpful with advice

Mr.Sellers helped with advice and letter in a small claims case that I pursued against a car dealership. I contacted him after purchasing a truck and finding the next day that the truck had a approximate $5000.00 problem. Mr. Sellers assisted me with understanding consumer laws in Va. and with a le...tter that was sent to the dealership. The dealership did not want to help with the fixing the problem nor would they take the truck back. With the advice and letter in hand I went to small claims court and won the case for the full amount of the cost in repairs. I would recommend Mr. Sellers for his honesty and knowledge of law.

"I have a number of clients who have estate planning questions (wills, advance medical directives, trusts) and business issues. I sent them to Clint for two reasons: he knows the law and he cares about his clients. Clint has assisted me with my own business and estate planning issues and I would highly recommend him for yours."
