also known as Law Office of Virginia A Clifford PLLC
I enjoy making complicated legal issues simple to accomplish the goals for my clients, who usually are families of modest means needing advice and assistance. I practice in the areas of elder law, estate planning (wills, powers of attorney and trusts) and Guardianships. I also do some family law cases- seeking settlement if possible so that people can resolve their issues and get on with their lives. It is important to me that my clients understand what their choices are, and that they know what the next steps are when they leave my office. I'm always available to answer questions for clients and former clients. I enjoy singing and hiking.

When I needed an Irrevocable Special Needs Trust reviewed & rewritten from the mess 2 other previous attorneys had done, Virginia immediately spotted some very troublesome areas they had overlooked and misrepresented..

Protected our dad with a VAPO
When our stepmom isolated our dad from his family (6 kids), we asked Virginia for help getting us back into the AFH to visit him. She helped us out by not only getting a VAPO against his new wife, but also dug deeper into what was really going on - revealing exploitation we knew nothing about.

We hired V.Clifford to defend us in a lawsuit with ex-wife. She spoke reasonable and we kept trust on her until a hearing day. In a courtroom it was a nightmare. She was not prepared for hearing at all. She did not know the subject well, could not answer the questions from an apposite attorney, she w...
I would be happy to speak with Stewart, if he wishes to give me a call. I don't have a client with that first name in my records of former clients for recent years, but am sorry to hear of anyone being disappointed by my work.
