Annonymous

I hired Vanessa Price to represent me while going through my divorce. She is excellent! I would definitely recommend using her if you are unsure who to choose. She exceeded my expectations and I couldn't be happier. Everything worked out perfectly for my case. From the day I filed to the final signin...g of my divorce took about 3 months. Wow! I loved Vanessa and her Paralegal Kassidy. Very sweet ladies and very easy to work with.

Highly recommended!

I have used Vanessa for the past 5 years on two different custody cases. She has always gone above and beyond to get us what we felt was fair and needed. She is super easy to talk to and remembers everything you tell her. Her staff is friendly and on top of anything that you need. I highly recom...mend Vanessa to anyone looking for an attorney.

Vanessa saved my family

Vanessa and her team have been such a blessing to me! When I first walked into Vanessa's office I was a little apprehensive, strictly because I am not a fan of confrontation. Being a parent is hard work itself, but when you are a single parent and get no financial assistance from the other, it mak...es things even more difficult. It took me 3 years to finally put my foot down and even though I still felt guilt, Vanessa reassured me that I was not in the wrong. Opening up to someone and letting them into your personal life is always, and will always be nerve-racking, but in order for Vanessa to do her job, I had to. Vanessa and her team were very professional. Not once did I ever feel like there was judgement passed. They walked me through the entire custody and support process and It's honestly a bitter-sweet moment knowing that this has finally come to an end. All in all, I am extremely satisfied with her services and would HIGHLY recommend her and her team to anyone looking for some legal assistance!

Truly Grateful

Our family is truly grateful for the expertise and personal attention we received from Vanessa Winkler Price. She helped our family on several occasions with custody issues. In the midst of emotional and time sensitive circumstances she did not disappoint. We heartily recommend Ms. Vanessa Winkler Pr...ice!

Posted by Roy | December 17, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Excellent!

I have gone to Vanessa on multiple occasions for help. Always professional, thorough, and knows the law! After my wife and I had our second child we realized that we better make sure our kids would be taken care of. We had no idea what to do and Vanessa guided us through the Will, Power of Attorn...ey and Medical power of Attorney. She has also helped us with some non-standard custody issues and even closed a piece of real estate property for me a few years ago. I don't think she does much real estate any more but highly recommend her for any legal needs!
