Professional, efficient, kind, and thoughful

Devon helped me through my divorce and helped guide me during a very difficult time in my life. She has also helped with guidance on other family law matters. Devon takes the time to listen to all of your concerns and give you a thoughtful assessment of all your options. She took care of my divorce v...ery efficiently and ensured I was kept up-to-date throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend hiring Devon for any family law needs.

Professional, understanding and very resourceful on helping me with my divorce

I used the Slovensky Law firm for my divorce. I looked up lawyers in the surrounding area near Roanoke, and this firm had wonderful 5 star reviews. Those reviews helped me realize this is who I need to help me through my divorce. Mrs. Slovensky helped me every step of the way to understand the proces...s and always so positive in helping me get through this. My ex-husband wanted a very large sum of my retirement plan. She brought in another company to evaluate every part of my plan and lowered the sum substantially!!!! By doing this, I was able to walk away from the marriage not owing him a large sum of money. I would highly recommend this practice to everyone I know!!!! Thank you again Slovensky Law Practice for everything!!!!

Devon, showed her will to go above and beyond the handling of my visitation case. She showed experience and grit in winning my case. I would recommend her to any and everyone. By far she is an exceptional attorney and really cares about her clients. Thanks Devon

Simple the BEST

I contacted Ms Slovensky in April 2019 for help with a divorce and property settlement case. She gave me more help in just 30 minutes than I'd had in two years of struggling with other attorneys, being strung along, getting no help and no answers! She was very easy to talk to, an excellent listener, ...and even took time to research specific answers for me in our first appointment. Her insights were the key that I needed to work out my issues with my ex. And thanks to her, it resolved quickly! After speaking with her, I felt immediate relief and assurance and knew what path I needed to take. The clarity I received from her regarding my situation was a game changer for the better in this complicated situation. I highly recommend her for her honesty and willingness to understand what I was asking and for conveying in a very real and clear manner the answers to my questions! Great communicator. Ms Slovensky was refreshingly different from all the other attorneys I had contacted and highly impressive. I would give her 10 stars if possible.

Excellent attorney

Devon and her team were professional, extremely knowledgeable, and transparent. Devon and her team went above and beyond by always being easy to reach and fast to respond. During the most trying and difficult time I felt well taken care of and genuinely cared for. I would highly recommend Devon to an...yone in need of a family attorney.
