She's not worth your time

She's unprofessional doesn't return calls or emails and doesn't complete the paperwork that's needed for your case

Request another

When a court appointed attorney tells her incarcerated clients the best way to communicate with her is via email, it seems like a blatant violation of ethical rules regarding client communication and diligence to me. Hopefully, the Virginia State Bar will agree with me.

She knows her stuff and will fight for you.

I wanted a lawyer that would represent me fairly in my divorce. It was a bad situation and I really did not want to have to deal with my then husband to negotiate anything. I referred him to her with any questions. Whatever conversations took place made my life so much more peaceful!!! Coparenting... turned out to be much better after he talked to her. There were delays due to Covid and sometimes I didn't get an immediate call back but she was always on top of it when we went to court. I am SOOO grateful for her and would recommend her 1000 times over.

Standing up for what’s right.

You played a huge role in having my kids sent to live with their father. I tried to tell you all that they were being abused & didn’t want to live with him but all you saw was a check instead of innocent children. Now the abuse is worse & they’re crying out for help but no one will help them. What ty...pe of system is this? My daughters have reported their father to the school, cps has came out, I’ve reported him & had cps come out again on a different occasion as well. The legal system just doesn’t care about the well being of children unless it’s the mother being accused of something. What happened to black women standing up for black women? You looked me in my eyes that day & you felt nothing. You have destroyed my family, Tiffany. My daughter sent multiple encrypted messages saying very alarming & scary things. She wants me to help in any way I can therefore I am. God bless you Tiffany. I hope that check was nice.

Very disappointed with Ms. Tiffany Sullivan

I had retained Tiffany Sullivan and October 2023 we had our first appointment November 2nd 2023 Miss Sullivan had stated to me that my spouse had been served on October 3rd 2023 the divorce complaint . She stated to me that due to the holidays coming up it would be hard to get a judge to sit in on th...e mediation so we will press forward come January 2024 I then reached out to her to let her know that I was having surgery January 9th of 2024 if we could do something after that. I emailed her several times after January 10th to see if she had or was able to get a judge to sit in on the mediation and she was not responding by February 22nd 2024 she emailed me stating that we needed to schedule an appointment so she scheduled it for Monday February 26th at 4:00 p.m. I responded back via email that that worked good and I was looking forward to talking with her well on the 26th she did not call me at 4:00 so I was reaching out to her which I did not want to miss my appointment but I didn't know if she was going to be calling me or I was calling her because when I responded back to her on the 22nd of February I had asked do I call you or you call me she never responded so come the 26th of February she asked me if this was me that keeps calling her that she is in court well to me if you knew you had a 4:00 appointment why didn't you reach out to me via email or text to let me know that you were in court so after a couple of emails back and forth she said she's going to have to release me now I'm thinking release me because I'm calling and she says yes ma'am I can release you and I was asking her to explain and then later she stated she just realized that she doesn't have the time or the attention to give to my case so March 25th 2024 she emails me the release paper for me to sign in order to get what was left from my retainer I signed screenshot and email the forms back to her as well as I put a set in the mail as she requested which she received on the 27th of March well now I'm trying to get another attorney and I'm finding out that I can't talk to another attorney until the judge releases her from me so I emailed again around the 11th of April to ask her about the release form she emails me back asking did I check with the courts so when I checked with the courts on the 12th of April the clerk said that they just received the release on the 11th of April and that it was upstairs on the judge's desk I have finally received the release papers with the judge's signature my thing is I felt from the beginning that Miss Tiffany Sullivan was on point a good attorney with bedside manners but for the month of January, February very unprofessional lack of communication. And I do understand when you have more than you can handle you stop before you go too far but I feel that she could have let me know at our first meeting November 2nd 2023 that she didn't have the time or the attention to give to my case after just opening her own practice the end of July 2023. I wish her well and it's a lesson I've learned as far as putting my trust with someone that I had not even met in person.
