Unusual Excellence

Zionne has been handling a complex, and contentious divorce and settlement agreement for me during the last five years. I have had quite a few attorneys over the years in my business who have solved unsolvable problems for me. But Zionne has exceeded all my expectations and is at the top of my list... of compentent lawyers. On my side of the table Zionne is like dealing with Oprah Winfrey, understanding and compassionate. Those on the opposing side of the table see quite a different personality, a sort of fierce mother polar bear, bravely defending her cubs. Her mind is like a steel trap and no detail is left unexamined. She sees every loophole the other side might use before they even think of it. I was born in Boston, so I have a prejudice towards Boston University graduates. But the combination of her fine education, intuitive insight, dogged attention to detail, and plain hard work makes her one of the most valued advisors in my journey through life.

Bring Attorney Akpan on Your Team

My husband and I hired Attorney Zionne Akpan when our family was in the center of a crisis and we did not know what to do. Immediately Attorney Akpan was a zealously advocate for us and our interest. Not only was she an advocate, she was an educator, who kept us informed every step of the way. She co...nsistently provided us with knowledge that will arm us in the future should we ever encounter a similar situation. I have personally called Attorney Akpan in moments when we needed legal counsel immediately, and if it were not for her natural talent of taking a great deal of information, (new information on new topics about which she is unaware) and her skill to digest all of that information and define the central elements of the problem, attain the answers, possible results, and the solution, we would have been completely taken advantage of. As our case and situation changed, Attorney Akpan spent a great deal of her time guiding us, and through her extensive knowledge of what the law involves, she advised us about each decision, every action, and many other subjects. And in many cases, she served as much more than our lawyer, she served as our counselor, which prevented us from unknowingly creating a situation where we could have implicated ourselves. Attorney Akpan kept our interest as her first priority at all times, and her legal expertise is second to none. Her character set her apart, she is not just a good lawyer, she is a Great lawyer and our experience with Attorney Akpan has changed our lives for the better. Do not hesitate to bring her on your team.

Zionne Akpan is the "True Master of Law"

We can't say enough good things about the law office of Zionne Akpan .She handled our cases with total understanding of the all state laws and new regulations that even some of the judges were not aware of the new laws. She has the knowledge and compassion that everyone needs when they are dealing wi...th sensitive matters of the heart and soul! She was as tough and as rough as any players on a football team! Yes it's true she is tough as nails when she needed to be, yet helped us maintain a sense of perspective. Mrs Akpan was very nice and really professional in dealing with our cases to ensure our best interests were taken care of. We had interviewed several lawyers in the DC, Maryland and VA area; but they were overpriced and out of our budget range that we had set aside for our legal matters. She handles all type of cases for the military and civilian families who need help! Furthermore we were surprised that she took our case since some lawyers did not want to work with us because it was be an quick cases. We have shared her name with others family members, friends and other business owners like ourselves. They have hired her and have told us they are so very grateful that we shared her information with them. They told us themselves that she has outstanding customer service and her rates were fair for their legal needs. Talk to her first before you sign any retaining documents with a fee with any other lawyers. We as a family are glad will did..
