Best lawyer in Roanoke!!!!

Let me just start off by saying Vicki and barb are AMAZING, I was going thru an extremely difficult custody battle with my ex I looked on Google to find a lawyer and I came across “Wiese law firm” I had never seen a lawyer that had 5 stars no matter what website you looked on. So I contacted her firm..., after the first phone call with barb I felt so relieved!! I explained to her my situation, she really listened to me and set up a zoom consult with Vicki. Once speaking to Vicki I felt even better! I hired her as my attorney and I must say I would leave court prior to hiring her feeling defeated every time. Vicki is a perfectionist to say the least, she gets the job done and she keeps you in the loop every step of the way. With her by my side in court I felt like anything could be thrown at me and she was like my heavy duty armor that had me protected at every angle! She’s not one of those lawyers that will just tell you what you want to hear, she’s very transparent . She let me know from day one the chances of court going in my favor and even had a plan for the future just in case to get me more visitation! I’m so happy I hired her, I walked away with physical custody granted back to me for my daughter. After leaving that court room I hugged Vicki so hard and just immediately began crying and thanking her, her exact words were “you did it mama” in reality I couldn’t have done this without her and instead of just saying thank you she recognized me for the outcome of my court case. I recommend her to everyone!!!! Her and barb make you feel so at home and bigger than just “another client” to them. They get to the job and get it DONE!!! Thank you all so much I could never repay you guys for what you did for me!!! I cried the whole way thru typing this. I will never step into court for any reason without Vicki by my side! My family was put back together because of these wonderful women, and for that we are FOREVER grateful!!

Confident, Compassionate Attorney

Vicki was knowledgeable, compassionate, and reassuring while handling my case. She was successful in winning the case and I will continue to seek her help in any future legal matters.

N/a

Vicki won custody of my son for me, which was huge for us! I’d been through a long and contentious divorce but my ex was alienating me from my son and not following the court order. On our first meeting I explained her behavior to Vicki and immediately felt confident that Vicki understood. She has a ...psychology degree and a lot of empathy. I needed someone to understand what I was dealing with and fight for me. She did just that.
