You won’t find a better attorney in Virginia

Daniel Fast is by far the absolute best attorney I have ever worked with. Not only is Mr Fast very personable, but he takes the time to review every piece of evidence as closely as possible in order to present it in a clear and concise manner. Mr Fast also explains every step in the legal process in ...a way that is not only makes it easy to understand, but he also has the uncanny ability to ease the normal fears of courtroom drama. Mr Fast quickly demonstrates a level of leadership that will leave clients confident in his skill and ability to litigate. I simply just can’t recommend Daniel Fast enough.

Knowledgeable lawyer and strong court representation!

We have come to know Attorney Daniel Fast over two years and three different court cases for custody and visitation of my children. These were cases involving families from three different states. We found Dan on an internet review site, so we hope this review helps someone else seeking expert help... in custody, visitation or divorce case representation. Dan is a very competent lawyer who knows the law and gave us sound advice on what was important legally to our case. He is an advocate for children and parents and worked to represent our case within the law. He prepared us well for court and provided us with a strong court defense. We appreciated the help that Dan gave us in representing my request for my child to be returned to my primary custody. This was a long process and very nerve wracking. Dan was available to talk with me by phone which helped me feel like I was doing all I could to advocate for my children. Dan also helped me complete a divorce proceeding. Dan has a great office assistant Pam who took my messages and kept me informed about the next time I would be able to talk with Dan. I would highly recommend Attorney Dan Fast for anyone looking for help with custody or divorce cases.

Efficient and Reliable

Mr Fast handled a personal matter for me this year. He and his staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. Mr Fast completed my case quickly and got me the results I wanted. If he wasn’t available when I had questions, he always returned my call promptly.

Justice for the wrongfully accused

My boyfriend is a prisoner at Red Onion State Prison where he was accused of assaulting guard. Being that his is in fact incarcerated more people than less tend to believe that those who are imprisoned are lairs as well as a menace to society, Dan Fast is one of the few that believe in far treatment ...for all and thanks to the work that he put in on this justice was served. Myself as well as family members of my constantly called Dan and received responses in timely manner and he also kept us informed of the case process. Thank you Dan for a job well done, From my man, future in laws and myself we truly appreciate the time and effort that was put in on this case and for renewing our beliefs in the justice system. I would gladly recommend Dan Fast to any family who happens to be going through the same situation because he treats his clients as people and not criminals.
