This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent divorce and litigation

Ms Davis was initially hired through another law firm, but I followed her to her own practice to wrap up a three year divorce/custody case. I was delighted with her, both personally and professionally. Her knowledge of the law, her ability to litigate our divorce trial (which lasted 2 days!) with r...azor sharp precision and a very positive outcome was worth every penny I spent. She always gave me sound counsel and reminded me to look at the bigger picture, especially when the bigger picture was difficult to see. I may be required in the future to use her services in VA. I would not hesitate to ask her again to handle what may be a miserable case with an unreasonable defendant. She is definitely an asset to have when you need an experienced, compassionate and real-time lawyer.

The problem was resolved

The issue that I had with Davis Law Firm was settled. Ms Davis was simply unaware of her paralegal`s actions as far as billing went. We came to a mutual understanding and resolved the problem. She is a professional and deserves good help

  • 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.
