Great Attorney!

Vanessa has represented me on a few legal matters. I have always felt that Vanessa goes above and beyond to ensure my best interest was first and foremost. The entire staff in the office is knowledgable and friendly and all worked together to fulfill my legal needs. Their hours did not stop at 5 pm.... Kassidy worked endlessly communicating with me throughout the entire process. If I had a question after hours, I knew she would try her best to answer as soon as possible. Highly recommend Vanessa and her staff!

Excellent results!

I am so glad that I hired Ms. Price. Her team was very responsive and answered my million questions with patience. She was able to stand up for my needs when I was being too nice. My final divorce decree was everything that I had hoped for and more and I have her to thank for advising me so well. ...She made a scary experience much easier.

REASSURING, ARTICULATE, KNOWLEDGEABLE, EFFECTIVE

Vanessa has handled a couple of legal matters for me over the years and has ALWAYS achieved the outcome I was looking for. When you are in financial distress and dealing with your child's father who determines the way he feels about you, is how he financially supports your child, it is difficult to ...think clearly and make good decisions . That, in addition to not understanding a legal process complicates matters even more. Vanessa explained the law, outlined in clear language the steps in the process that were needed to be done. She was reassuring, articulate, knowledgeable and effective. Vanessa made the process so much easier and gave me peace of mind in a stressful but successful outcome. I can't thank her enough for how helpful her and Kassidy were. I will continue to use Vanessa. HIGHLY recommend.

Divorce

Consulted with and hired Vanessa Price to assist me in processing my divorce. She was very easy to communicate with and very caring of my situation. She was great at following through with the specific guidelines that was set in the divorce decree and was very helpful in making sure I received all ...that was owed to me. The paralegals in her office were also very helpful and great to work with with. She was very effective and I highly recommend her.

  • 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.
