Jeannette Barnicle Purvis

I selected Ms. Purvis to represent me during my divorce process first by reviewing her highly rated reviews on line. I hired her immediately after our consultation appointment. She’s very knowledgeable, honest and efficient. I couldn’t be more pleased with her services. Her legal assistant Ms. St...one was simply amazing. Any questions I had were always answered promptly. I highly recommend this team to anyone searching for a divorce lawyer in the Stafford, Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania area.

I cannot thank Ms. Purvis enough for all she has done for me and my family during this very difficult time. Her professionalism and genuine care and concern helped ease my mind from start to finish in my case. Ms. Purvis kept me well informed every step of the way, answered all questions and even l...et me know if my expectations were unreasonable. Dealing with her and her office has been a very pleasant experience and I cannot recommend her enough.

I can’t begin to express my sincerest gratitude to both Jeannette and her assistant Bethany. When my fiancé and I were looking for an attorney to represent him in his child custody case, we knew it would be imperative to find someone who is highly respected and well-known in the Spotsylvania JDR. Aft...er the initial consultation, we both appreciated her assertiveness and her ability to be honest with us about our chances. Although we had many things going in our favor leading up to the hearing, having Jeannette’s guidance through dealing with the antics of the child’s mother was immeasurable and we’re certain her proactive measures helped us to be successful in court. She is always calm, and nothing can get her off-kilter; which is a much-needed attribute when you’re speaking about the welfare of one’s child. One can only imagine the financial burden of planning a wedding while also being involved in a child custody dispute and thankfully, Jeannette is NOT one of those attorneys who seeks to milk you for all you’re worth! Though her rates are comparable to most child custody attorneys, she is extremely respectful of your time and costs. While other attorneys will attempt to attend every court appearance, Jeanette strives to avoid court if there is a better alternative, which is better for your resources. Moreover, you get what you pay for: a detailed, thorough and brilliant attorney. Consider it money well spent. In collecting evidence, Jeannette is an intensive listener only concerned with the facts; which is all that the courts want to hear, not conjecture. In a child custody case where the mother repeatedly subverted the court system in order to get her way, Jeannette was keen in always exposing the truth so that the judge could plainly see it. Jeannette knows exactly when to balance her calm demeanor with a more aggressive approach, often making opposing counsel look like complete novices. In fact, almost nothing opposing counsel says or does surprises Jeannette: she’s already outlined what their strategy is going to be. We have prevailed in court case, after court case, because of her attention to detail, fact-checking and overall thoroughness. Now we can start this new chapter in our lives without this child custody case looming over us. If you are looking for a child custody attorney who is knowledgeable, straightforward and always has your best interests at heart, I highly recommend Jeannette Purvis.
