Testimonials

No Judgement

Ashli was nice and was very approachable. She also did not judge me. The first impression she made was very important. I intend to hire her to help me through my divorce.

Angelina F. , Newport News, VA

Nice and professional

I’m a going though a separation. I met with Caitlin and she was professional and to the point. I liked the information and felt comfortable enough to hire her.

Stacy T., Virginia Beach, VA

Knowledgable in Family Law

Katie struck me as knowledgeable in family law. I appreciated her expression of empathy and am certain she will act in my best interest. I like that you only represent women.

Jennifer M., Virginia Beach, VA

The Husband Lies

I felt comfortable talking with Mrs. Walters and Lorna. If they had not advised me to go to the spousal support hearing I would have missed out on the small amount of support I was awarded. However, I am grateful to be awarded any amount. Mrs. Walters remembered me from the seminar, helped me put some significant points in my agreement and educated me on the next steps to take toward the divorce process. They educated me very well about what to expect. Although, he did sign the agreement I did not because my spouse HAD NOT filed his malpractice case and my attorney advised me not to sign. I was surprise he had not filed because he had been telling me that they were about to settle the case. As your book said the Husband LIES.

Tisha F., Hampton, VA

Comfortable with my plan

Caitlin listened and heard me and what I am hoping to achieve. I felt comfortable with the plan(s) I left with.

Dawn S., Chesapeake, VA

Scary Husband

Ashli made feel better about this situation I am in! My soon to be ex husband is good at scare tactics and Ashli was very helpful. I look forward to working with the team.

Heather W., Newport News, VA

Best Plan of Action

Ashli told me the best plan of action and helped me understand the process. This was a very valuable use of my time. She did exactly what she said she would, and in 30 minutes. I have already retained her!

Ashley L., Poquoson, VA

I have more confidence and believe I can turn my case around

Lori was straight forward and explained to me things my current lawyer from legal aid couldn't. Even though I couldn't afford their services, I believe the consultation was worth every penny.

Laura C., Portsmouth, VA

She was very knowledgeable and made me feel very welcomed

Caitlin was very welcoming and attentive to my requests and questions in regards to the divorce.  She helped me understand what was missing and what needs to be done to move forward with my divorce. She made me feel at ease with the current situation.

J. M., Virginia Beach, VA

You're a sincere person and are a lovely asset

"I felt Sarah did more than just listened but rather truly heard me, understood and cared. What I liked most about Sarah Haight... is that she seemed to truly care about only me and all my circumstantial matter".

Adrienne C., Chesapeake, VA

I thought Ashli was amazing.

I thought Ashli was amazing. I have met with many attorneys because I wanted someone that will fight for my children as if they were their own children to save them from abuse and molestation. I saw that in her...she presented herself very well. She was very eager to get to work.

Sabrina P., Courtland, VA

Ashli understands my unique situation

Ashli is intelligent and I didn't feel like she was irritated that I was there.  She understands my unique situation, this was a very valuable use of my time. 

Mary B., Newport News, VA

One Hundred Percent Geared Towards a Woman and Her Needs

Katie was very warm. She was able to answer the questions that I had in a way that was easy for me to understand. It was almost strange to be associated with a professional entity that was 100% geared towards a woman and her needs. Even the directions to your law firm was extremely female oriented. Good job!

Lisa B., Virginia Beach, VA

Allayed my concerns

Katie listened and was supportive. The consult allayed many of my concerns and affirmed much of what I thought I already knew. She was clear, knowledgeable and advising.

Hollis W., Virginia Beach, VA

Amazing advice for next steps

Ashli was nice, kind, and she sympathized with my situation. Just the initial visit makes me want to recommend anyone to this law firm. Very understanding and listens intently but also gives amazing advice for the next steps to take so the process goes faster.

Christina W., Newport News, VA

She put my fears to rest

Caitlin immediately put my fears to rest. She listened answered my questions and gave me confidence that all was going to be right. Her quick manner at appraising the situation, checking and rechecking paperwork and confidence showed she knew what the next steps were to be. I needed quick answers and was able to get an immediate consultation. Felt there was honesty, thoroughness and confidence which I needed.

Julia C., Duck, NC

A good fit

Sarah Haight was awesome, she clarified legal terms, answered my questions and educated me beyond my questions. She was knowledgeable, professional and very personable. She is a good fit for me should I pursue separation.

Kathryn T., Chesapeake, VA

Law firm gave me hope

I left feeling like Caitlin was thoughtful and genuine in her advice responses. She gave me advice on how to carry on from this point out... with or w/o retaining her services, she helped me at least get my head in the game. There were things that I hadn't considered before, such as, I actually had to file for Custody and Visitation if I wanted to ask for time. This law firm gave me some hope and I felt like they did what they could to help me.

Karen C., Portsmouth, VA

My best interest in mind

Caitlin was an absolute joy to work with, she put me at ease and worked very hard to get all of my needs and wants written down. She was very knowledge and caring.  I felt she had my best interest in mind and was ready to do what ever needs to be done to help me in my situation.

Hope L., Chesapeake, VA

No unanswered questions!

Caitlin was considerate and knowledgeable. She was very understanding and explained everything very well, without making me feel uneducated. I didn't leave the office with any unanswered questions.

Michelle N., Norfolk, VA

Felt at Ease

She made me feel much more at ease about the process, and spent time getting to know me as a person at the same time.

Denise M., Virginia Beach, VA

Same Day Appointment

I had with me most of the paperwork to get the divorce reply to his contested divorce started, but had not organized it at all. Ms Pack was patient with her questions and was able to find the information she needed to file the response. She took my appointment the same day and has been very responsive to my questions. She was kind and gentle to me in my emotional state and was very knowledgeable about the kind of divorce proceedings that I could be facing.

Janna B., Newport News, VA

Sheera Was Direct!

I like how Sheera was able to direct each question on a general note and explicitly explain each scenario to each individual's circumstances. I like that the therapist spoke about our emotions and how to get them back in control. We can all be in control of what we will allow to effect us or not.

Maria L. Virginia Beach, VA

Very Patient

During the Second Saturday Seminar with Caitlin I learned how to organize myself better and learn how to protect the best interests of my daughter. I wish I had come a long time ago. This seminar will save you money and help prepare you from day one which is so important.

Cathy L. Virginia Beach, VA

Motivated

The Second Saturday seminar with Caitlin was very informative and a positive and motivated move. She was nice and has a great personality. I feel less stressed and more motivated to move on with the task ahead.

Velda B. Virginia Beach, VA

I Want Her For My Divorce Lawyer!

In the Second Saturday seminar Sheera is very knowledgeable and I want her for my divorce lawyer! I don't feel so blinded and she was very informative. I needed to hear information from the therapist and I will heed to her advice.

Anita M.

Attorney recommendation

I met Charlie at a family wealth planning conference in Orlando. Over the course of the conference, I was fortunate enough to spend significant time with Charlie and really got to know him and his practice well. Charlie clearly is a knowledgeable and skilled attorney. What really stood out though was his deep commitment to enriching the lives of his clients. If I had a client in need of an attorney in Virginia Beach, not only would I recommend Charlie, he would be my ONLY recommendation.

Chuck Roulet, Attorney and Counselor at Law

Winning custody dispute

Dear Mr. Hofheimer,
Thank you for winning my daughter back in a complicated multi-state custody dispute. I could not be happier.

Renee, Virginia Beach, Virginia

Advocate for women's rights

Dear Mr. Hofheimer,
Thank you for being an advocate for women's rights. Thank you for being there for all these women who have been abused and taken advantage of throughout their marriages. You are a man of honor and integrity. God bless you!

Catherine

Attorneys recommendation to read charlies book

It can be stressful to face legal problems of any nature and divorce, by its very nature, can be among the most stressful of times. Until now it was almost impossible to get trusted legal and practical information about the divorce process without actually paying a lawyer for a consultation.

Charlie Hofheimer has done an enormous job of packing useful, practical, accurate and compassionate information into his book What Every Virginia Woman Should Know About Divorce. I would strongly encourage any woman who is contemplating divorce, or who finds herself the subject of divorce proceedings to read Charlie's book before hiring an attorney or signing papers.

Benjamin W. Glass, III, Virginia attorney, listed in Best Lawyers in America

Accolates for Second Saturday event

I would like to say that if I had taken the "What Women Need to Know About Divorce" class before my divorce, it would have saved me many, many hours of hurt and a whole lot of money. I have attended two clases this year and I have gotten so much help for myself and for other women seeking a divorce. I suggest that every woman throughout Virginia take this class. I will tell the women that come into my office about this class, and I will advise them to take it. Thanks for your help!

Adelaide, Norfolk, Virginia

Review of Virginia Divorce Lawyer

If I were going through a divorce in Virginia or considering getting divorced there, I'd absolutely, 100% read Charlie's book before hiring a lawyer or making any decisions at all. In fact, I think it's a must read for every person going through divorce in Virginia, not just women!

Alexis Martin Neely

Unwaivering decency and honor

[Charlie],thank you so much for all of your help during this difficult period in our lives. Your unwaivering decency and honor, at all times, was invaluable. I would always recommend your services.

Karen, Virginia Beach, Virginia

Words cannot express my level of gratitude

Kristen and Diane:

Words cannot express my level of gratitude for what you two have done for my family. After spending thousands of dollars on 3 other attorneys that did nothing but hurt me instead of help me, I finally found you. I knew I had found the people who were going to help me get my kids back. You did it with integrity, and with my children's' best interests in mind. It was the first time I had dealt with a lawyer who actually listened to what I had to say instead of how much money was in my pocket. You weren't afraid to challenge the opposition (and you proved that when you made my ex squirm on the stand). I have never seen someone work so hard for what is right....you really made me and my family feel like we were YOUR family. You two are worth every penny and I wish I would have hired you from the start.

Please accept my most sincere thanks for everything you have done. You will always be a part of our family.

Thank you,

Jennifer

I want to thank you for all the hard work you did

I want to thank you for all the hard work you did on my case!

Kim

I already feel a tremendous burden has been lifted

Good afternoon. I have received your book. I attended the seminar on Tuesday and did not realize it was the same book that I read at the seminar. The seminar provided me with some compelling information. I would strongly recommend this to any woman contemplating divorce. Divorce is never easy no matter how one looks at it especially when children are involved. For years I have allowed two individuals in particular to intimidate me to the point where I felt so unworthy. They prey upon the weak and I let that fear and intimidation hold me back for so long. They knew I would believe anything. I have gotten so much stronger over the past year and I am truly proud of myself and the seminar just made my strength even greater. Knowledge is definitely power. I already feel a tremendous burden has been lifted because of the knowledge I have gained. Thanks so much!


I would like to say thank you very much for the free copy of your book

First of all, I would like to say thank you very much for the free copy of your book. Secondly, I would like to let you know that the information that I read in your book has helped me a lot to be less ignorant regarding this type of information. Before I read this book, I felt like I was blind, whom my husband kept lying and threatening me. I will attend the seminar and I will make an appointment. Once again thank you so much for this book.

Lucia

Book for women who cannot afford attorney

Charlie,

Your information is very helpful, especially for those who may not have the money to hire their own attorney.

Barbara

Charlie Hofheimer's divorce book was helpful

I loved your book. All the information was very helpful.

Dee

Dawn feels less anxiety about her divorce after reading Charlie's book

I love the book. Most of the anxiety I had before I read it is now gone. Thank you, thank you so much.

Dawn

Lisa is worried about living separate and apart in the same house, separation from husband is tricky in same home

Charlie,

My favorite part of the book is the section on what it takes to be separated. My husband and I are still living in the same house, so that helps a lot. Thank you.

Lisa

Leah was scared of divorce

Charlie,

Your book on divorce was absolutely spellbinding! After I started reading, I simply couldn't stop. It was packed full of information that I'll need in the very near future. What I liked most was the description of the legal process, which told me what I can and can't do and, more importantly, what my spouse can and can't do.

Leah

Melinda, a victim of domestic violence, thanks Charlie Hofheimer for his divorce book

Charlie,

I was finally able to read the book; it was so informative. Thank you for all the work you and your firm do to help victims of domestic violence.

Melinda

Nancy loves Charlie's Book on Divorce

Charlie,

Your book was fantastic! The details about the legal process were most helpful to me as the average person has no idea how the law reads and how that will affect your divorce. The step-by-step approach explaining the process was very easy to understand and made me more comfortable with how to proceed. I read the book cover to cover and have it tucked away in my bedroom for reference as we proceed through the divorce. Thank you for writing the book and making the topic easy to understand since anyone considering divorce is stressed and needs uncomplicated explanations.

Nancy

Susan loves Charlie's book and the Second Saturday seminars

I read your book and will continue to refer to it on my journey through this. The book is an easy read and a wonderful guide as to where you are going and what you will need to do for yourself and your family. I also attended one of your Second Saturday seminars, which is another important asset that you offer. Please continue doing what you're doing in the community because your books should be a woman's bible on divorce.

Susan

Mediation was cheaper after reading Charlie's divorce book

Mr. Hofheimer,

I found your book VERY informative. I am currently using a mediator and was able to answer some of the questions I had just by reading your book without asking my lawyer. This, of course, saved me quite a bit of money! I am hanging on to the book to go back to it for reference later. Thanks so much for putting it together. It was such a tremendous help!

Tina

Thank you for your book and the messages from your partners.

Charlie,

I learned a lot from your book. I'm not sure I'm ready to go through with a divorce yet. Thank you for the book and the messages from your partners.

Suzanne

Divorce Book Helps Woman Working On Marriage

Charlie,

I would like to thank you very much for the information in your book. It has been very helpful to me. I brought divorce up to my husband but he definitely doesn't want that. We have been seeking counseling for the past two months and it has been very helpful. I'm keeping all the information you send me just in case.

Valerie

I wish I had read your divorce book sooner

Charlie,

I just finished reading your book. I wish I had read it sooner in the process, but it was still very helpful. My case involves a lot of separate property on both sides, so that section was especially helpful to me. Thank you.

Boo

Thank you for the valuable information.

Charlie,

My husband and I are currently in marriage counseling, but hoping to work things out. Thank you so much for the valuable information from the book, your website, and in your emails.

Barbara

Your book told me how important it is to have an attorney first!

The most valuable element of your book, to me, was the importance of having an attorney before doing anything. Thank you.

L

I ordered your divorce book to help my friend, but I wish I had it when my husband left!

I ordered the book for my neighbor. I think it has great information in it and it's easy to understand. I wish I had gotten a copy of the book when my husband left.

Karmen

The divorce book helped me organize my thoughts

I was not financially able to retain an attorney and pay the additional hourly fee, so the details in your book helped me organize my thoughts, questions, and paperwork before talking to an attorney. I was able to hire an attorney on an hourly basis. These preparations made it easier to expect the unexpected during my separation agreement negotiations.

Thank you very much. Your book was very helpful, and I thank you for providing this service to women.

Sue

Your book has been a source of information, comfort and encouragement.

Your book has been a great source of information, comfort, and encouragement.

Sherry

Your divorce book was so helpful, I gave it to a friend!

The book was great. Very well done and useful. I shared it with my friend in Virginia, too.

Karen

My son and I survived my divorce thanks to the information in your book.

Dear Mr. Hofheimer,

I took your class in 1993 after a neighbor told me about it, and it was a real blessing. I learned a lot and took it to heart, earning three degrees since that time. I am now an Intensive In-Home Counselor helping families in crisis. I referred multiple people to your seminars when I lived in Virginia Beach (until 2007).

I never thought I would need to read this book, but since I can't go to another seminar, I sincerely thank you for the free book. I wish your office was closer! I now live in the Appalachian mountains.

My 15 year old son and I survived because of the information I learned in your seminar.

Thank you for your free book, your practice, and sharing of information, which I consider to be a ministry.

Jill

Because of your book, I am on the right track.

When I received your book, I was so distraught and upset about all the things I was going through. I cried all over it. I honestly believe that Virginia has made getting a divorce so difficult, and that's why there's so many old couples together when all the love has left.

Your book should be sent to each and every woman who is lost in an emotional struggle and has no idea what to do next. I have separated from my husband while living under the same roof. I wouldn't have known how to do this if it weren't for your book. Because of your book, I'm on the right track now.

Shaunita

I really found your book to be very informative.

Charlie,

I really found the book to be very informative.

Cindy

One of your attorneys handled my divorce, so I referred my friend.

Charlie,

Several years ago, I got divorced. One of your attorneys represented me, and she did a great job!

I called your office several weeks ago for a good friend of mine who is struggling with her divorce/separation. I ordered the book for her, but I read a lot of it before I gave it to her. What a valuable tool it is.

Lori

Second Saturday Second Timer

This was my second visit to Second Saturday. I came 10-11 years ago the first time, but my daughter begged me to stay in my marriage so I did. You provide a unique and needed service. I need to move on with my life and I have been given this chance, so I will be keeping track of what I need to do next. The seminar was fantastic. Thanks for the information.

Terri

Your book is a great asset as I prepare for my divorce.

Charlie,

Your book is a great asset to me as I prepare for my divorce. Without the book and the seminars, I would have known nothing about my rights and would have walked away with practically nothing. I appreciate the fact that you, as a male, have looked to help women through this very emotional battle and help guide us into financial stability by teaching us about our rights.

Patti

Keep the emails coming!

Please, keep the emails coming.

I'm taking things one day at a time. After thirty years of marriage, and with an 8 week old grandson, he wants out.

Thank you for sending all the information and support I so need.

Patti

I'm still thinking about divorce, but if I decide to, I will call your office.

I read your book and found it very helpful. I liked the section that talked about divorce being a difficult decision. I am still in the process of thinking about it, but feel like I should do everything I can to try to make it work. If I do decide to move forward with a divorce, I'll be calling your office.

Catherine

Divorce book provided starting point

I greatly appreciate the book and can't begin to thank you enough. It has given me guidance and a starting point at a time when I felt REALLY lost. It was a great relief to get the book because it answered many of my questions and guided me on things I hadn't even thought about yet. Thank you so much!

Stacey

Empowering seminars

Thank you for the seminar. It was tremendously helpful and empowered me to stand up for myself.

Sharon

Client found new strength in her marriage

Hi, Tammy, Shannon, and all who have helped me at Hofheimer Law,

Thank you all for supporting me in one of the hardest times of my life. The marriage and reconciliation agreement that you all worked hard on has helped me to be more secure in my marriage. I appreciate all the help. If I ever need counsel in the future, I will definitely return to your firm.

Nicole H.

Custody Bootcamp is better than free consultation

This seminar was very informative and more information than you would get from a free consultation with an attorney. The information was most helpful.

Yolanda

Thank you for offering a book to help me get my divorce started

Thank you for the book. It was very easy to read and reinforced much of the material I had already researched. What was most useful for me was the worksheets/information that helped calculate or estimate the value of all the things I have done, as far as unpaid labor (all the things that everyone takes for granted).

Carol McCully

Virginia divorce book is informative and useful

I found your book very informative and it will be quite useful. There seems to be focus on mothers with dependent children and that is commendable.

Patricia Murphy

Virginia divorce book was foundation for divorce research

I found your book to be the foundation of many questions I had. This also helped me ask the right questions to my lawyer and opened my eyes to things that I did not know about (my rights/my childs rights, etc.) Thank you for the great resource it really helped me as this is my first and hopefully only divorce.

Kathy Sullivan

Local therapist uses Hofheimer Family Law resources to educate her clients

I have requested your books and even downloaded them as a resource and option for many of my patients who may be considering or in the midst of separation/divorce. Although I am currently married, I can never know enough as to my rights because I was prior military; however, my spouse retired last year from the US Navy. I don't plan on divorcing my spouse but better smart, educated, and safe rather than sorry. LOL!!!

I am grateful for the resources that your firm has provided and the workshops because they have been a guide for many who are struggling. I would love to be given the opportunity to meet you all one day soon.

Kristin Barbee

Virginia Woman grateful for Virginia-specific divorce information

What I liked best about your book was that it was very specific to the state of Virginia. There is a lot of info online and info by word of mouth; but only your text was helpful in understanding what was applicable in Virginia. Additionally, I appreciated the info regarding spousal support and child support. For us stay at home moms, this is info needed immediately as it is such an important and practical factor affecting a decision. Thank you for making this readily available.

Ellen Kuzemchak

Charlie's divorce book is helpful and inspires woman to pursue law degree

I appreciate all of your advice it has been helpful. I wish I had found you sooner. I plan on pursuing a law degree because of this and hopefully I will work for you or someplace like it. Take my LSAT in October. 🙂 Through all this bad I found a way to pick up the pieces and build a stronger me. I am disappointed in the system and how it worked my case. I appreciate your messages and tips, keep em coming information is always welcome 🙂

Danielle C.

Thanks to Hofheimer Family Law Firm for emails, books, and information

Thank you and your staff for your emails books information. Y'all have helped me more.than.you know.

Lawanda

Charlie's Virginia divorce book is a must-read

I thought the book was excellent with all the information that was provide I think it will be very useful for those who are getting ready to go through a divorce. I consider it a must read book.


Charlie's book should be handed out at every wedding so Virginia women can be prepared!

I wish they handed this out at every wedding so women would always be prepared. I liked the information and laws section. Because I have been using it when I thought all my hardwork went out the window till I seen the one part of the law... I love the e-mails that gives straight points - which also helped me out a lot. I still am gathering my information and weighing my options at this time. So thank you for this wonderful book and all the helpful e-mails. It makes this journey a little easier - not pleasant - but easier.

Penny

Military Divorce book authors understand what military spouses go through

Thank you so much for this book! I only wish I'd had it a month or so ago. The introduction made me cry. You really understand what a military spouse goes through. Thank you again for writing it and making it available to me.

Gayle Jussel

Virginia divorce book gives woman courage to demand what she deserves

Thank you so much for you book. I moved to Virginia 15 years ago from Wyoming. My first divorce after 19 years of marriage took 20 days and 50.00 and we were divorced in Wyoming. After that I didn't give myself enough time to process being single and I stupidly married someone from virginia. Your book and other information has help enormously and given me the courage to speak loudly and clearly (without crying) to my lawyer. For that thank you so much. My heart is still broken and I am very lonely because I have no family here. However I think I have found my feet. Sorry to go on and on but your book was so helpful I wish you and your daughter wasn't so far away. The bottom line is your information was great it helped me see the big picture of divorce.

Debbie Breeden

Conversational Virginia Divorce book teaches about Virginia laws

I very much enjoyed having your book for a reference. As I am in the early stages of this unfortunate process, I found great comfort that your book laid out what I can expect. I found the calculated examples for child and spousal support very helpfully. I liked that it was written in a very conversational style. It was like I was asking the questions and you were giving your response based on your years of experience.

I have recommended your website to others who are in this situation.

Thank you for providing this very informative (and free!) resource.

Debbie Hallert

Second Saturday seminar and Virginia Divorce book are so helpful

I read your book and will continue to refer and use it on my journey thru this. The book is an easy read and a wonderful guide as to where you are going and what you need to do for yourself and your family.
I also attended one of your Sat. seminars which is another wonderful asset you offer. Please continue doing what you do because it is definitely needed in the community and is or should be a women's bible on this journey of divorce.

Susan Davis

Military wife appreciates Hofheimer Family Law Firm's Girl's Night Out events

I just want to tell you how much I love the passion and enthusiasm you bring to your work.

I'm on your list because last summer when I thought about divorce from my active duty Navy husband I found you online and downloaded your ebook on military divorce (I think it was specifically military, don't remember). It was such a useful and valuable resource for me. I decided not to go in that direction but I feel at ease knowing that I have you as a resource should I need you.

Even though I don't live locally and can't participate in your events the fun and the educational, I love to read them and see what you're up to.

Thank you for everything. And I think it's wonderful how your dad pipes in from time to time.

Cory

Second Saturday seminar helps teach women Virginia divorce options

I realize my options and vast choices now. I also appreciate your sheet on how to interview your attorney! I will use the seminar workbook to assist with my choices, and the Virginia divorce book. Every woman should be aware of her options and the pitfalls of not being educated.


A client thanks Shannon Lemm, an attorney at Hofheimer Family Law Firm, for her tenacious, deligent, and compassionate representation during her divorce.

When my ex-spouse of 21+ years informed me that he was involved with another woman and planned on leaving, I was emotionally devastated and knew that my world had changed drastically.  Upon the advice of a friend, I attended Second Saturday, where Ms. Lemm provided an overview of the divorce process that armed me with the knowledge I needed.  Although I interviewed several attorneys, none of them expressed the compassion as well as the knowledge that Ms. Lemm displayed.

Ms. Lemm was diligent, displayed a level of expertise in applying the law, and yet was compassionate to my plight.  The phrase stated is, "it's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog."  I believe that, because she represented me, the judge made a reasonable settlement decision.  I believe in divine connections and know that God allowed our paths to cross at my time of greatest need.  Ms. Lemm was an answer to a prayer and I highly recommend her to any woman who finds herself faced with the challenge of divorce.

With the help of Charles Hofheimer and Sheera Herrell, a client was able to finally feel "represented and protected" after past "fruitless" efforts.

My daughter and I have spent much time trying to obtain financial assistance for her and her twins. It was fruitless until we were recommended to your firm. Our initial consultation with you sparked hope. You seemed to be a man capable of getting a job done. You turned our case over to Sheera Herrell who reflected your reputation and firm in a most commendable way. She was accessible, knowledgeable of our case and quick to act. We felt represented and protected in a most fundamental way. Our family sends your firm a boquet of gratefulness.
