Mr. Bush

I retained Mr. Bush for a very difficult Protective Order put in place by my former spouse about 5 years ago. Mr. Bush did phenomenal in defending me against false allegations and was able to get the case dismissed. I could not have hoped for a better outcome. Mr. Bush was always very attentive to my... concerns and promptly responded whenever I had any questions. I have referred Mr. Bush to numerous friends throughout the years and look to retain him again if necessary for a high profile custody case my new wife is involved in. I would highly recommend Mr. Bush and his staff for any legal services you may need.

Do Not Recommend

I hired Mr. Bush for expedited custody. I had one brief consultation. Other than that I was trying to get answers through emails on the process. I was trying to have a meeting prior to court so I could understand my options, but it never happened. I felt completely unprepared as I have no experience ...with the court system. He spoke with me for 5 minutes before mediation on my court date, not fully understanding my situation, so his recommendation was not helpful. I felt like a number and not a client that dished out tons of money. I can give him credit for filing and getting a court date, that is about it.

Highly Contested Custody Case (7 children) - Guaranteed to be better off w/ his counsel & his law firm than any other in H Roads

Justin was thorough and detail oriented through the entire litigation process. His pleadings are always thorough and meticulous attention to detail. He took on a very challenging case and executed with precision and ease as well as fighting multiple times to help me acquire and re-acquire reunificati...on each time it was terminated at no fault of mine. He has obtained extremely favorable results each time we walked into court where other attorneys failed and has not lost a single time, he represented me. He was the final attorney representing my case after one was not able to secure favorable outcomes and the other left the family law practice (Justin came highly recommended from testimonials I read about him and through other attorneys he litigated against) and his staff and entire office continues to have my complete faith and trust as the litigation is about to conclude. He has literally done everything within the bounds of law to fight for my rights to my relationship to my seven children and seen once in 1,368 days, had ensured 109 reunification sessions even when interference impeded me every step of the way he was there to help, he also obtained extremely talented professionals to add to the team of a highly complex case and was able to restore competency within the professionals involved in my case. This continued to ensure a road and path to my children no matter the obstacle. He will represent you with all of his will and might and has phenomenal ethics and a great respect from judges and his fellow attorneys he litigates against. You will not regret obtaining this attorney or anyone within his law firm. Sean Domer and Fred Taylor have stepped in and also executed positive results in my case. I have not had an adverse ruling with Justin Bush since he began working with me in 2019/2020 timeframe and I would not even consider another attorney in the Hampton Roads legal community. We are still in on-going litigation but this case which has spanned over 4 years however it is nearing a conclusion and I have no doubts he will continue to do achieve a final outcome that is positive. He is not an attorney that loses - and ALWAYS puts his clients in advantageous positions -- Following his counsel which is filled with insightful, actionable, and successful direction is a decision YOU WILL NEVER REGRET !!!!! Thank you Justin , Sean, and your entire office. Note** The operational folks, and paralegals - are the most dedicated, kind-, and warm-hearted people a client could ever interact with. You don't just get a dominant attorney you get a dominant law firm from the top down. The strongest and highest endorsement I could come up with. There is a reason he is in the top 1% of his class and has all of the certifications and accreditation. He is the Michael Air Jordan of his field and will bring it home every time.

Outstanding Attorney

I can’t express how happy I am with my how Mr. Bush handled my case. He is someone you can trust, and his knowledge of the law is only exceeded by how effectively he managed my case. His name came up while I was consulting with other firms regarding a child custody issue. It was clear to me from ...how his peers spoke about him, that he was held in high esteem and very well respected. I contacted his office almost immediately for a consult. During the initial consult with Mr. Bush, my questions were answered with clear information and frank and honest opinions. It was clear that his primary goal was to present me with all options so I could make an informed decision rather than to get my business. The staff at Bush & Taylor are experienced, friendly, available and quickly respond to any questions or concerns you may have about your case. I was regularly provided with updates and Mr. Bush was available for any questions or concerns that I had. I was kept well informed and always felt that my case was being handled with great care and attention. Beyond all his knowledge, experience and great customer care; I was moved when it became clear to me how much that he genuinely cared about the welfare and best interests of my children. He was an amazing advocate and was able to guide us through to a happy conclusion. If you have any family law issues, I highly recommend you contact him for a consult and give him the opportunity to handle it for you.

Thank you very much. Difficult custody cases like this one are some of our favorite cases. I am very glad that we were able to win this case and provide an excellent outcome.

Money talks or Justin walks!

Agree with the other 1 star poster. I gave him so much of my money and when I could not rub 2 pennies together for myself or to pay him with anymore, he withdrew as my council days before trial. He left me screwed and he knew it. He nickels and dimes every single call, email, round the corner trip to... court, etc. My retainer and more were eaten up by this and he even said he did not read everything or get too detailed on my case because he knew money was becoming an issue. I sat alone in front if a judge with the other party pushing to go forward but thankfully the judge even agreed the way I was left with barely any notice, I deserved and was granted a continuance. My new lawyer was AMAZING. I wish I knew better than to give Justin my money. I was vulnerable and frantic over my situation and he used it to his advantage all the way to the bank.

Unfortunately, there is no name associated with this review so I have no idea who is making this claim. I am sorry however if you were unable to afford our services and had to hire someone else. I am glad that it turned out for you.
