An amazing attorney with exceptional qualities

Colleen Quinn, Esq. is more than just an exceptional attorney - she is an amazing person as well. Energetic, passionate and knowledgeable she went above and beyond and her expertise was evident in the way she handled my case. Having had no more than the weekend to scrutinize and digest the contents o...f heaps of documents, she defended me effectively and effortlessly with well-reasoned arguments. Evidently, she had invested considerable time and effort assembling all the relevant facts and then preparing a strong defense. She is very reliable; she will not disappoint. Thank you, Colleen!

Great help with our surrogacy journey

Colleen and Charli had helped us through our journey of surrogacy. They have been extremely helpful from the initial consulting, the contract drafting to the legal documents application. They always respond to our request quick (even during holidays or weekends). Colleen is very knowledgeable and pat...ient to answer any questions you may have. We greatly appreciated their help along the way. Definitely would recommended to other intended parents who need help with surrogacy.

Domestic adoption

Started an inter-state adoption, moved to a local adoption. Lots of complications with birth mom and etc. Colleen and her team were professional, great advice, came prepared, came to us for court dates and worked with other lawyers seamlessly! Worth the price to have a seasoned, experienced, detai...led lawyer that let us focus on our part of the process while they took car of, advised, and guided the legal side. Thanks !

GREAT lawyer for lgbt clients!

Colleen Quinn and her team handled our wills, as well as our same-sex step parent adoption of our son. She was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, and very accommodating with our long distance needs as we actually live an hour from Richmond. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely retu...rn to her for any future attorney needs!

"Although I'm an adoption attorney in another state, when I needed expert assistance in a chapter on assisted reproduction technology in an adoption book I was writing, Colleen's excellent reputation in the ART field made her the first person I called. Her knowledge is extensive, surpassed only by her ability to make complicated subjects easy to understand. I think she is an exceptional lawyer in the adoption and ART field."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
