Bryan Heaton Schempf

• I recommend Bryan Schempf. • I hired Bryan in July 2011. • Bryan handled my Child Custody matter and Divorce. Mr. Schempf represented me in my divorce and child custody matters. I had a very rugged divorce where my rich wife tried to use her trust fund money and manipulation to take my so...n and throw me to the wolves. She spent around 360,000 dollars over the course of two years trying to crush me. Mr. Schempf took on all three of her lawyers like a champ. I didn’t have a lot of money, but he said he wouldn’t give up on me. He allowed me to pay him payments, and his fees were very reasonable. Bryan got me an "amazing" custody agreement, and got me divorced from her. It was an uphill battle, but this guy is good. It definitely takes a lot of time to fight money and manipulation, and the courts in VA aren’t about a speedy process. His opinions were always right. Sometimes I would not understand exactly what was going on. He would explain it to me and then ask me what I wanted to do. I always took his advice, and he his ideas were always great. I still get earfuls from my ex-wife on how much she dislikes him (he made her lawyers look bad, and they were some of the best around). If you get a chance to use this man as your lawyer, do it!

Mr. Schempf was very knowledgeable of the law, current court system as well as current tendencies and worked to achieve solutions that didn’t waste anyone’s time. Mr. Schempf took the time to know what the real problems were, and what the desired outcomes were as well as developed a plan that achiev...ed those outcomes. As an out of town/state client, Mr. Schempf made himself available to me often at unusual business times to ensure he was able to respond to developments as they happened in my case. Not only am I extremely happy with the results of my case with Mr. Schempf, during the process his guidance has helped me better understand the entire family dynamic and not just my point of view. I would highly recommend Mr. Schempf for any legal needs you may have!

Mr. Schempf handled my legal needs in a professional and timely manner. His communication skills were effective in gathering relative info to organize and move through the legal process. Mr. Schempf and his legal assistant Pam Denney kept me informed and up to date from the beginning until the suc...cessful completion of my case. I have referred a friend to Mr. Schempf who also feels very fortunate to have his legal representation.

Mr. Schempf proved himself to be an effective lawyer when handling my divorce case. He was both knowledgeable and informative and worked with me to reach a positive solution to my issues. He has assisted me in other family issues as well by offering prompt advice. His professionalism and integrity ...as well as the kindness and understanding he showed me and my family during a difficult time lead me to recommend him to anyone I know who is in need of a good lawyer.
