Mykell LaRocque Messman

I was with another firm for over two years. They drained my bank account, my hope, and I felt like a pawn in my own custody battle. I sought Mykell out after a terrible experience where I felt my attorney at the time didn’t know how to represent my case. I had an initial meeting, we talked about what... was important to me and once accepted Mykell literally heard everything I said, as a single mom, and went from there. We didn’t have a bunch of consultations that she billed me obscene amounts, we had two. She went to court and she FOUGHT for my babies and for me. She fought for everyone’s best interests, she was amazing. She told me from the beginning we’re not doing this whole “petty” thing which I 100% respect because my previous lawyer told me to call them about everything, and they billed me accordingly. She said call me when you NEED me and gave me her personal cell. After two and a half years for the first time I felt HEARD with her without repeating myself twenty times. I felt SAFE with her and I knew she was looking out for EVERYONE. She was everything I needed from the beginning and more. If you don’t go to Mykell you’re doing a disservice to yourself and your sanity. For the first time in two and a half years I feel like I can breathe again. Retain her. The juice is worth the squeeze I promise you.

Attorney Mykell Messman was recommended by two of my friends, that had been her client, and I am so thankful she is representing me in the divorce my husband filed. Ms. Messmans experience with divorce involving military spouses and her professional knowledge of the Virginia Beach courts has made me... appreciate how she has advised me and the results. I highly recommend Ms. Messman and her initial review phone call was complimentary. If you want the best divorce representation in Virginia Beach you should consider Ms. Mykell Messman.

I am going to keep this one short and simple! By far the best attorney I have ever worked with. She can be a mama bear when she needs to be and at the same time she is that pitbull with lipstick! Not only is she hot, beautiful in a skirt LOL, No disrespect of course but the other attorney will under... estimate her because of her looks and poor them! She always makes me look good when we are walking in the courtroom and especially walking out of the courtroom victorious! She got me for custody of my two girls and for a guy that is awesome, thank you so much Mykell!

If you read the sign on the door as you enter Ms. Messman's office you should take notice of her motto, aggressive, dedicated, advocate. Being a client I can assure you, this is exactly what you will get from her. Ms. Messman demonstrates a thorough knowledge of criminal and family law that can help ...any client navigate the complexity of making the best decision. In addition to the expertise that Ms. Messman provides when she becomes a part of your case, she is supported by a knowledgeable, responsive and helpful staff. It is evident in being a client of Ms. Messman that her dedication to law is driven by a true passion for her profession and helping those whom she serves, making her stand out as an excellent choice as an attorney.

I was recommended Mykell from a family member who went through divorce as well. She is honest and up front you with you about expectation and what you should expect. When she says she will defend you as she would defend her own family she means it and stands behind it. I personally have recommended... her to several people I work with. She is a fantastic lawyer you definitely get what you pay for. The money I have spent has saved me at least 10 fold. Flat out I trust Mykell with what ever she says. I plan on keeping her on retainer long after my everything is done. She has earned a life long client. As far as what Mykell has done for me was a divorce with property and children involved I have 50/50 and don't pay my ex wife anything.
