We called Speedwell and had a Zoom call for an hour with Alexandra Filiault. A week before the meeting, we dropped off a paper copy of the Trust. Alexandra came to the meeting very well prepared. She had read the Trust paperwork (+200 pages), answered all of our questions with examples, made some recommendations and made every minute of our hour session worth it! She also had our Trust copied into an electronic file and had the paper copy we had left at her office mailed back to us. We highly recommend Alexandra....well prepared, easily understood, self assured and confident, very competent in her area of law.

It is with great pleasure that my wife and I wholeheartedly recommend the skilled estate planning…read morelegal services of our attorney Jonathan Cox, Esq., at NOVA Estate Planning. Having carefully considered a wide variety of qualified estate planning professionals in Northern Virginia, the outstanding client references for Jonathan Cox, Esq. made him our "#1 Choice." From our initial meeting and onward, Jonathan never failed to maintain a courteous and relaxed demeanor. He patiently listened to all of our preconceived estate planning objectives and concerns. With those insights, Jonathan proceeded to explore for us the pros and cons of a wide variety of practical options and approaches, tailored for our personally articulated joint objectives and priorities. Jonathan explained to us each potential path of asset protection, while weighing the tax considerations, asset protection strengths and shortcomings of each option. He would patiently lay out the unique administrative aspects of every approach, while pondering the day-to-day and long term asset/cash management characteristics of each. Once our estate planning objective and preferences were extensively explored and conceptualized, Jonathan began diagramming a proposed "best structure" of our customized estate plan, all on a large white board in his private conference room. And there before our appreciative eyes, the entire structure of our estate plan did unfold. With scholarly skill, Jonathan would carefully explain each and every aspect of the proposed plan, weighing the relative tax impact, secure ownership and retained control of each progressive step. Shortly thereafter, appropriate legal documents were generated (in draft form), incorporating our exact priorities; ranging from living trusts; beneficiary trusts; powers of attorney; payment and transfer on death instructions; real property re-titling; advanced care directives; etc. After careful review and discussion, an orderly array of finalized legal documents were generated, presented, proofread, executed, notarized and filed (where required). Eventually, all originals were compiled in a neat pocketed binder and digitalized for our future reference, use and potential updating. Straightforward written instructions by Jonathan accompanied all our documents, designed for future reference by ourselves and by our heirs in the final administration and distribution of our estate. My wife and I remain fully satisfied with the extraordinary high quality of professional counsel, interim guidance and finalized work product provided by Jonathan Cox, Esq.; all at a very reasonable cost. Most importantly... Jonathan Cox has provided, both my wife and I, peace of mind. Thank you, Jonathan! by - Fred V. Vienna, VA

He takes no responsibility for the bad experience I had and told me the lady I spoke with - Ms. Moorad was not even an attorney. So basically she lied to me when I thought I was speaking with an attorney. He further tried to poke holes in my review without even getting the facts right. Hey buddy - instead of getting defensive and trying to imply I'm lying, why don't you show some customer service by finding out what happened and then seeking to address it instead of trying to deny everything. Terrible customer service yet again from this firm.

Throughout my complicated, multi-year cases, they have shown themselves to be not only knowledgeable about all the relevant legal issues, but also able to adapt to the specifics of my situation.

I know that's where I was. And it's Steven and Katarina who got me out of it. I do a lot of things myself, but I never could have done this without them, and I'm very grateful.

The best part of my experience, and the highlight of the entire experience was the initial…read moreconsultation with Soo. She gave excellent direction and fully explained all options available. After this, I was assigned to another attorney within the firm. The representation itself was fine, but I did feel that there was unneeded back-and-forth at times, with each message being billed at a rate of 6 minutes, it all adds up. The tipping point was when I emailed asking if we could reach out to the other party's representation and also asked if there were any strategies to move toward a resolution. I received a response stating "It is good to hear from you. It probably makes sense for you to reach out to [other party regarding my question] and the need to reach a resolution. If you are able to reach an agreement, then we can help you to memorialize its terms." I was surprised when I was charged for this, and when I asked if I was being charged, I was ignored. Finally, when I asked to end my relationship with the firm and requested a refund of my retainer, the amount billed for the aforementioned email response was deducted. While it was only ~$40, my question was not even answered. I was offered a 15 minute consultation at a later time, but since I'm no longer a client, asked if that was something I would even be able to use. A week later and I have not received a response. I would be cautious of this firm if your situation is not cut and dry and to whom you are assigned. In my experience, Soo Keithley is fantastic, but others may leave you wanting for more.

Let's just say I have experience now with other divorce attorneys in the area, and it's worth your time to keep looking because you can do much better. A lot of the other posters' negative experiences with Soo and her firm are very familiar and similar to my own. In my opinion, professionalism is a huge issue with this firm. Ultimately and I cannot emphasize this enough -- this firm became just as, if not more, stressful to deal with than the high conflict divorce I was embroiled in. And that is not a feeling you want with your attorney who is supposed to advocate for your interests.

A difficult & abused feeling experience with this firm…read more I needed legal help to process the estate of my deceased mother. I ended up wasting six months and about $4K, paid in fees, with no outcome with Geller Law. I was first requested to have a mandatory paid initial consultation session to go over my legal help needed. I was introduced to Julie S. during this session. After describing my specific case & needs, she informed me that Geller Law can handle my case. What followed was months of emotional stress & redundant conversations with the staff of this firm that yielded no results. It became clear to me that they didn't know how to legally handle my case. Some staff members were argumentative & appeared trying to take advantage of this emotional situation for me. There were redundant conversations that I was later billed for. I concluded that this firm is not the choice that can handle my case professionally. I terminated my work with them. The new law firm I selected to handle my case turned out to be more knowledgeable for my case. And, more compassionate with me. The process was handled smoothly & professionally to completion.
