Not just a Lawyer but a mentor and a Friend

I have known Mr. Pagano for over ten years. He has represented me in all my legal affairs in Virginia. I am a person who does not like drama and I live my life courteously and reverently, I give all i have and in that vein, I've been maligned and needed representation, guidance and sometimes a sh...oulder and listening ear. Keith provides top notch quality service and a staff willing to help in whatever capacity they can. I have had to call and ask for them to wait for me to weave through traffic to make it to their side of town to take papers and they have gladly waited that extra 15 min. for me. I have been able to reach them via phone and email even receiving call backs and email messages during non office hours. I have seen him grow from new practice to a Respected member of the Legal community in the surrounding Richmond area and throughout Va. I have seen his family grow and prosper, and being a native of NJ, I love his NY mentality and vibe. We get to the heart of the matter people from the Northeast and I like that no nonsense approach. I can not say enough about his Paralegal Britni Tate as well she is the bomb. and I ADORE Karen Dodson. She exudes empathy and warmth. I pray all my troubles are over (thanks to Keith and company) but if any arise I know who to turn to. Audrey M. White

My attorney, Mr. Pagano, has assisted me with great results on more than one occasion!

I have finally found an attorney that is willing to help in a most proficient and timely manner with the end result being outstanding. He has helped me out with regard to my business and saved me money and much headache. Mr. Pagano is reliable and when I needed him to contact the opposing party, he s...ent letters that were law abiding and professional that resulted in the other party realizing that they were in the wrong! I very much appreciate his hard work and knowledge which I am very grateful. This is an attorney anyone can trust and he will give you the most professional and real advise!

Puts you as ease and gets the job done right!

My husband and I found ourselves in the unfortunate situation of having to file for bankruptcy. We were a little embarassed but went to see Keith Pagano because a friend had recommended him. He immediately put us at ease and we felt extremely comfortable with him. He is easy to talk to, and explain...s things in a way that you can understand. He is extremely professional, but also feels like a friend that will take good care of you. My initial feelings about him proved correct as we went through the entire process. The day of court was nerve wracking for me, Keith calmed my nerves and prepared me for what the trustee might ask (just incase). I watched the trustee hammer into people asking questions that wasn't in the paperwork and neither them (or their lawyer) were prepared to answer. The trustee seemed disgusted with most of the the other lawyers paperwork , so much so, that he continued many of their cases for another day so they would be more prepared. BUT when it was our time, I couldn't have been more thankful that Keith was my lawyer. Keith prepared all of my paperwork just as the trustee liked. Keith's attention to detail and carefulness made all the differece to the trustee and he had a different demeanor with me than those that had come before us. It was as different as night and day because of Keith's thoroughness. I left the court extremely thankful that Keith was our lawyer, and I know that a bunch of the people in that courtroom were wishing he was their lawyer too!!
