Excellent Service
Ms. Fuller provided timely and professional service. Ms. Fuller was a referral to me. I’m came to Virginia from another state dealing with an emergency custody issue. She provided counseling and executed my desired action. It was a successful 3 day trip with my little loved one in tow, and safe. Also it was a pleasure interacting with her staff, very warm and pleasant group.

Best of the best
Mrs. Fuller and her staff are absolutely amazing. From the very first conversation I had with Mrs. Fuller, I knew that this law firm would do everything they could for me. My case has been far from easy. Barbara is extremely honest and will not beat around the bush on difficult topics. She is very much a "tell it like it is" kind of person, exactly what is needed for difficult cases. She made it clear from from beginning that the needs of my children come before the wants of either parent, making her exactly what I was looking for in a lawyer. She radiates confidence in everything she does. Sommer and Stephanie are extremely sweet, both having calmed me when things became challenging for myself. All of them work together to provide the perfect fighting force for your needs.
From the beginning, they have made me feel as if my children were their main priority, even with the many other clients they have. They will make you feel the same. They always respond and get back to me within one business day and have handled all of the necessary paperwork with little stress on me. Whenever I call the office, I know Tina will always answer in her cheerful tone. Our conversations always bring a smile to my face.
When their office hours end, they are still hard at work and are willing to call after hours to handle any late emergencies. Together, they have done the impossible with my ongoing case, never making me feel that they are not doing everything they can for me. I am not kidding when I tell you they will treat you like family. Thank you so much for everything that you and your staff continue to do!

Epitome of dignity and restraint.
Divorce is always frustrating, even in the best circumstances. I was getting nowhere with my previous attorney, and a friend of mine recommended Barbara. Barbara jumped right in, sending letters to the opposing counsel, and filing the proper paperwork in court. She did not let them ignore her anymore. Not everyone likes her, she’s smooth on the court floor, walks in like she owns the place. I walked out of the courtroom with her and other attorneys recognized her in the parking lot. She’s sharp, keeps your goals in mind and knows when to let something go or chase after it.
Barbara’s team works! Need an email answered quick? Her assistant, Sommer can handle it - or she’ll forward it to Barbara, Laura, or Stephanie if there’s a question that involves legal advice. A quick call to Tina will get you up to speed on the status of your requests. I’ve never gone more than a weekend without getting an email response.
Barbara doesn’t coddle you, but when you need a lawyer who can gain traction and not lose ground, she’s the one to have. I’m grateful that my friends knew what they were talking about when they recommended her.

PHENOMENAL ATTORNEY
Barbara was my attorney in my divorce, I met a bunch of divorce lawyers and then I called her office and spoke to her and knew just by her tone and willingness to answer some questions I had upfront, that she was the best. She answered all of my questions day or night and weekends and was always more than happy to help.
She got me exactly what I wanted and the other side of my divorce was difficult to say the least. I would highly recommend her!

My Hero
Ms. Fuller replaced my previous representation, because they were less than appropriate for my case (Divorce, assault, and protective order). She swooped in as if she had been on the case from the beginning. Her performance was and is nothing short of stellar! She has a small team, (Laura, and Tina) but they carry a big stick! She protected my reputation while simultaneously, getting the results I was seeking. Very mild mannered and kind, but aggressive on your behalf when she needs to be. I couldn't be in better hands.
If you ever need an attorney who will stand up for and keep you in the loop of your case; Barbara Fuller and her team will in my opinion are the best choice. I promise you will not be disappointed.

Custody
My son was involved in an unusual custody battle. He started his fight with an unnamed attorney. We felt with him there was no hope. A friend recommended Barbara Fuller. In the initial consultation we learned more than we had known in a couple of months. Ms. Fuller is very passionate about what she does and the rights of her clients. She knows the law and will not leave you hanging wondering what step needs to be taken next. When you ask her a question she gives you an answer and does not leave you feeling less than human for asking questions. Don't make the mistake we did. Ms. Fuller is the BEST!!

If you’re looking for the best, then look no further
Barbara Fuller is an exceptional and reputable attorney! She represented me in a child support case. Barbara is personable, well-rounded and caring. After the initial consultation with Barbara, I knew where I stood in the matter of my case. She handled all my legal matters professionally and in a timely manner. She addressed all my concerns and I trusted her judgment. Can I just say in court she is a Legal Warrior! Having Barbara by my side made me feel confident about my case. She exceeded my expectations! Her paralegal was also amazing! She was so helpful, attentive, and informative. Barbara and her paralegal are the dynamic duo! I would refer all my family and friends to Barbara. I was very satisfied with her services. She truly is a wonderful person. I’m thankful that I was represented by the best family law attorney in the area!

Barbara is simply the best lawyer
I have hired Barbara to represent me in a very sensitive personal matter. Barbara has been top notch in her knowledge and experience. I feel so confident having her handling my case. She has worked tirelessly to make sure we are ready each and every time we hit the courtroom. Barbara is extremely authentic, and cares about my case personally showing care and concern for me and my family. Barbara is diligent about follow up, personally calling me to check on me. Her team is just as responsible and I feel as if I am her only client even though I know better :). I am so positive about Barbara moving my case forward and I look forward to continued success with having her on my team. Thanks so much for being a lawyer who is not only excellent at their job but really cares. I will refer Barbara to everyone and I only recommend the best!!!! Thanks so much I appreciate you Barbara!!! :)

Have a hostile divorce case? You can't go wrong with Ms. Barbara Fuller...
I hope to never have to use a lawyer again, but if I have to, I will contacting Ms. Barbara Fuller immediately. I went through an extremely hostile divorce, and I had to fire my first lawyer who wouldn't represent me the way I should have been represented. Ms. Fuller came with raving reviews from a friend, and I couldn't be happier with hiring Ms. Fuller to represent me. She handled my divorce and custody case with care and made sure to do what was best for myself and more importantly, my daughter. If you are in need of a lawyer who will look out for you, respond to you quickly (which was important to me, considering how stressful it was), and translate legalese into plain English, you can do no wrong with hiring Ms. Barbara Fuller. :-)

Outstanding Service
I had gone to two different attorneys for a divorce and custody issues. All they did was take my money and do nothing .
I hired Barbara to represent me and everything changed. She was very responsive and showed compassion relative to my circumstances .
I was awarded shared custody and now I can be the father to my daughter that I have always wanted to be.
One of the best decisions I have ever made.

Integrity
I had hired an attorney close to 2 years prior to meeting Barbara. My old attorney barely did anything on my case.
Once I hire Barbara, she started working diligently on my case and just helped me wrap up my divorce case. She was timely in her communication and showed integrity in everything she did. I appreciate her hard work and dedication.

Family Attorney | Feb 25
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"I endorse this lawyer..
Also for adoption, divorce, separation, and support issues, as well as business law, but can't seem to be able to include those areas in answer to the above question
Barbara is unique among family lawyers in that she brings her CPA knowledge to the economic issues that are always part of a divorce.
She is kind and thoughtful to her clients and respectful to all, but behind that demeanor she is assertive and gets the job done."
