family law issue

Victoria Adkins Snell was the attorney for my divorce. Our initial meeting was very professional; she was prepared with appropriate questions regarding my case, and was attentive to my questions and concerns about obtaining a divorce. I was impressed with her knowledge of family law - specifically... divorce cases. When I had questions or concerns, she was prompt in returning my phone calls and answering my concerns. I was nervous when it was time to go to court to finalize the divorce, but she was well prepared and easily answered all questions presented by the judge; it made for a smooth, quick conclusion.

Relationship: Co-worker

"I have had the opportunity to work with Victoria as part of the training for her at our new Orlando divorce office. Her years of experience and training are clearly demonstrated by her balanced approach to case work. She understands that there is a lot more to managing a divorce case than merely processing a complaint. She is a valuable asset to any client that works with her and, as such, i strongly endorse her work."

Divorce and separation lawyer | Jul 20

Relationship: Co-worker

"I endorse this lawyer because she is entirely dedicated to helping her clients. When you meet with Victoria, you will immediately see that she truly cares for her clients and that she listens. Divorces often force you to talk about sensitive issues--maybe something you have never had to discuss before--but her compassion will almost make you forget that it's a sensitive subject. She thoughtfully responds, tells it like it is, and you can believe her because she certainly knows what she's doing. Victoria is just one of those lawyers that you want in your corner (not in your soon-to-be-ex's corner)."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
