I worked with this office for over nine months and we had to change our course of action several times. There were so many unexpected challenges but the team remained focus and stayed the course. The paralegal team kept me informed every step of the way and answered my many questions in a timely fashion. Yes, the price can be costly but you get what you pay for. My family and I received outstanding service from the Lafayette Law Office. Renee and her team were wonderful to work with and I learned so much from the experience. I would use them again and highly recommend them to you.

I had an amazing experience dealing with Lafayette Law Office. I was represented by Bryan J. Jones for a case, who was able to obtain such a great outcome for the given situation, that I didn't even think would be possible. Bryan was very thorough and professional throughout the whole case, while at the same time making me feel comfortable and at ease given the circumstances. I appreciate the entire office for the diligent effort they put into my case, and will definitely be using them for any further needs of representation.

Warning! All my brother and sister veterans to steer clear of this firm. Any other lawfirm in this town has more Competence and integrity than this one. Beware of Attorneys who take your money before you discuss your case and not even credit your bill. This is the first of many tricks they have to milk as much money out of you as they can.

It would not be overstating the excellent customer service provided by Lafayette Law Office. Renee Lafayette has represented my family in 2 adoptions. We had 2 weeks notice for each adoption, and Renee coordinated every aspect of the adoption process. She was caring, thorough and wonderful. More recently, Bryan Jones represented my wife in a misdemeanor case which could have resulted in jail time (!) He was thorough and knowledgeable and his professionalism and skill resulted in an excellent outcome for our case. Renee Lafayette also made our wills and a power of attorneys documents. We are not exaggerating...and we cannot overstate how grateful our family is that we have such capable representation that we can call on when we need them. Lafayette Law Office is our lawyer for life and they should be yours too.

I honestly do not know what I would have done without the entire staff. Everyone in this office has maintained exceptional professionalism while representing me. Renee Lafayette is the best lawyer in town! Her knowledge of law alone is remarkable and along with her understanding of how emotional any court proceeding can be for every individual is comforting. Her staff is always courteous. They are thorough in their work, job performance is exemplary and always respond promptly. Their fees are reasonable and fair, however, their performance by far out weighs the cost.

Mr. Stevens was recommended to me five years ago. After my consultation we determined that representation was not needed at that time. I remembered Mr. Steven's professionalism, his attention to the concerns I presented to him, and the depth of the questions he asked me in an effort to get a clear understanding of what I wanted to accomplish. Five years later I was in need of representation, and over the past six months Mr. Stevens represented me extremely well. His professionalism, focus, and the drive he exhibits to ensure his clients receive his best shines through, and his caring demeanor is a bonus. He's thorough in his trial preparation and truly demonstrates that he cares (and is careful) in how he represents his clients. In my opinion he is THE BEST family lawyer, period! If I should need the services of a family lawyer again, hands down it will be Mr. Ayo Stevens who I will call upon to represent me.

I highly recommend the Law Offices of Ayo M. Stevens, LLC. They are professional and have over 20 years of experience in all family law matters. Attorney Stevens is extremely knowledgeable regarding child support, custody issues, alimony, divorce and all aspects of family law. This is a firm that really does care about their clients and makes you feel as if you are important.

Mr Stevens was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He took my case and got outstanding results! I would recommend him to anyone in need of family legal representation

He is very professional, caring, and personable. Very effective in the courtroom and he kept the kid's interest first. Highly recommend.

Deceptive and self-serving. Should be disbarred.

I contacted Mr. Burton in regards to a custody case. When I spoke to Mr burton on the phone everything sounded perfect, he said he would email me over a contract to sign and for me to pay the retainer fee through a online portal. Everything went as expected until it was time for payment. I went to pay the retainer fee however the portal added an additional $60 onto the fee I was already paying. My husband and I had already wasted money with another attorney and was not looking to pay any additional fees what so ever no matter how small. I tried to call Mr. Burton to ask if we could drop the money off to his office, but after the initial conversation I could not get in contacted with Mr Burton at all. I tried emailing, calling his office and left multiple text messages on his personal phone but to no avail. I am highly disappointed because initially speaking with Mr Burton I was excited to have him on our side. Now I’m thinking it was a good idea that he ghosted us because I would not like to work with an attorney who does not see or take his clients or potential clients matters seriously. I understand Mr. Burton may be a busy man, however it takes little to no effort to respond to a text message or even send a quick email.

Mr. Burton was professional and always left me with a clear understanding of the steps we were taking. I had 5 years of difficulties trying to clear unresolved issues in the courts and child support enforcement legality which he was able to clear up in a year. I would definitely recommend

Having Mr.Burton represent me for my child custody and child support case was the best decision I've made. Only taking on my case at the end he was still able to get the verdict in my favor. I appreciate his guidance and professionalism. He was always available to speak with and throughly went through everything in order to prepare me for my case.

Completely unresponsive for months. I paid upfront, kept receiving invoices, and couldn't get a reply to basic questions. I had a cut and dry divorce case with an agreement in place and couldn't get him to file it for months. Terrible service and value.

Was very hard to talk with and wayyyy to expensive for retaining him and just for a consultation

I had a case that needed immediate attention for a sensitive matter and Mr. Herriott was aggressive, professional and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him if you need someone to get the job done right the first time.

Randall Herriott has represented me over the past several years during my divorce and a number of child custody issues. His dedication and professionalism to my cases has always been consistent and am grateful for an amazing attorney. He responds to emails in a timely manner, meets to discuss progress of cases, and phone conversations to provide updates and/or discuss matters. Mr. Herriott is an exceptional attorney who will provide all options available, is honest about his professional recommendations, and never waivers at providing the best legal representation to his clients. I have been extremely satisfied with the representation received by Mr. Herriott over the years and would recommend him as an attorney for anyone seeking legal services for a divorce and/or child custody issues.

All of the attorneys at this practice are excellent to work with. Mrs. Glackin in particular has done an excellent job guiding me through a very difficult time in my life and making sure all of questions and concerns are met. The entire team of paralegals and secretaries are both diligent and professional as well. Thank you all!

The BEST Attorney Any Client Could Hope For I was extremely satisfied with the representation I received from Randall Herriott. I was going through a very difficult child support/custody case and I hired Randy several months into my case after realizing my first attorney was not getting the job done. During my initial consultation, Randy was both professional and very knowledgeable about family law. My daughter’s father is self-employed and was not being honest about his income. Randy went above and beyond to obtain his true income and I was able to get sole physical custody and more money than I expected for child support for my daughter. I shall forever be grateful and I would definitely recommend Randall Herriott.

Randy took on my case with one day to prepare before the hearing. He hit the ground running and was up to speed on even small details necessary to make our case a slam dunk for the sitting judge. I was very impressed with how quickly he honed in on the important details in a long, complicated history with the opposing party. He was also a crack-shot at cross-examining a witness who has been described by professionals as a "master manipulator." Her tactics at misinformation and creating confusion were completely thwarted by Randy's pointed and relevant questions. He was also great at guiding me through my own testimony, keeping me on track to ensure the court was presented with a clear and honest assessment of the situation. I was so relieved to have him in my corner.

Thank you Courtenay from the bottom of my heart for all the hard work that you and your office had put into my case and the patience that you had with my nervousness and anxiety through all of it. Yesterday at trial you were so incredibly organized. You made it seem effortless in your arrangement that helped the judge render a favorable determination. I was so impressed with how you were able to weave through it all even when I forgot pretty much everything I wanted to say. I am truly impressed, truly grateful and I feel very fortunate of the outcome. Thank you for everything.

It was a pleasure working with Cynthia Clark and her wonderful staff. I found Attorney Clark to be professional, responsive, and knowledgeable. Thanks to Ms. Clark and Ms. Sperry, I obtained a favorable outcome with my child custody situation. I found Ms. Clark to be extremely credible, and would highly recommend her office to anyone seeking legal representation.

Articulate, kind and compassionate. Such a wonderful office mentality in such a difficult time. I was constantly impressed by their knowledge of the law, accessibility, and timeliness. Was thankful to be represented by this firm.

As a family law attorney who deals with this firm regularly, I can say without hesitation that the lawyers at Peters and Clark, PA are professional, extremely competent, and diligent. Equally as important, the focus of their practice is to assist people who are dealing with painful and difficult life situations so Polly and Cynthia do their best to settle what can and should be settled and only litigate what must be litigated.

    Thank you Courtenay from the bottom of my heart for all the hard work that you and your office had put into my case and the patience that you had with my nervousness and anxiety through all of it. Yesterday at trial you were so incredibly organized. You made it seem effortless in your arrangement that helped the judge render a favorable determination. I was so impressed with how you were able to weave through it all even when I forgot pretty much everything I wanted to say. I am truly impressed, truly grateful and I feel very fortunate of the outcome. Thank you for everything.

    It was a pleasure working with Cynthia Clark and her wonderful staff. I found Attorney Clark to be professional, responsive, and knowledgeable. Thanks to Ms. Clark and Ms. Sperry, I obtained a favorable outcome with my child custody situation. I found Ms. Clark to be extremely credible, and would highly recommend her office to anyone seeking legal representation.

    As a family law attorney who deals with this firm regularly, I can say without hesitation that the lawyers at Peters and Clark, PA are professional, extremely competent, and diligent. Equally as important, the focus of their practice is to assist people who are dealing with painful and difficult life situations so Polly and Cynthia do their best to settle what can and should be settled and only litigate what must be litigated. In doing so, they allow their clients to experience as painless a process as this can be, while getting first rate legal counsel. I highly recommend this firm and its lawyers!

I am not even her client yet and she provided me with so much valuable information, her time, honesty, and compassion over the phone. I know attorney's charge for a consultation and that can dig a hole in people's pocket especially during this pandemic. I also know that if you are serious about an issue then you pay for someone's knowledge and expertise and move forward from that. Miss Rosalyn actually provided me a 30 minute consult free of charge and that is such a blessing for me. I will never ever forget her and I have never met her in person. She took her time and assured me what the best move for me would be at this given time. She also let me know what to watch out for as far as deception else where which I take that very important because many of us are ignorant and seek help putting our trust in professionals. From this, she shows her integrity and honesty. I love that! Another thing, God before everything. I believe God allowed for us to speak and I am grateful for her time and help. I will definitely hire her as needed if my situation ever changes. Miss Rosalyn is a virtuous woman (Proverbs 31). If you see this Miss Rosalyn, Thank you for your time! May God bless you abundantly and give you many successful and long years of life.

Having Ms. Otieno represent me was truly a gift from God. She represented me for a little over 18 months and, made my first (and, prayerfully my only) experience (with court) so special. I was/am a single mother who had just given birth and, was going through a challenging and heart-wrenching journey with my son's father. Ms. Otieno really took her time with me and, explained everything (document/claim) thoroughly before filing. I truly fell in love with Ms. Otieno and, really admire the woman she is! If you're looking for a lawyer that is very direct, extremely wise and, respectful: LOOK NO FURTHER!!! She is the one!!

She took down my information and never heard from her again

Excellent attorney. She was amazing. My situation was almost 4 yrs ago and we still talk about Ms Otieno to this day and how great she was.

Excellent attorney, she was very patient, HONEST and was truly looking out for my children's best interest! I didn't have confidence in my case and was intimidated just by the process alone but she was with me every step of the way and gave me the confidence I needed. Couldn't be more happy with the outcome! If you have a difficult case I would definitely recommend her!

Regina is a nationally recognized matrimonial legal expert. Her You Tube episodes guide the audience through the perilous world of divorce. I have know Regina both as a guest on her show as well as an attorney.A true consummate professional who I have know 7 years and recommended her to many times to clients. She exemplifies what it is to be a top notch attorney and educator. She is a leader in the field and always willing to help friends and colleagues.

Regina is a strong advocate for helping other women, both personally and professionally. As an active board member of the Women's Business Owner's organization, she serves as the Publicity Chair helping to promote the group to the community and assisting her co-members with various programs. Additionally, her Youtube videos serve as an inspiring platform for other entrepreneurs to share their ideas and mission with the public.

Regina responded within 24 hours. We scheduled a consultation for the next day. Very easy to talk to and I didnt feel rushed. She was honest and knowledgeable. Also took the time to send me some links and additional information that could be helpful for my situation.

Regina is an exceptional attorney who will guide you through this difficult time in your life, whether you are resolving the end of your marriage in court, or, preferably, through mediation or collaborative divorce. Although we live in different jurisdictions so she could not help me professionally, Regina helped counsel me as I worked my way through my own divorce. Her calm advice, depth of knowledge and understanding nature not only guided me on my personal path, but also inspired me to transform how I work with clients in my own practice. If you are in the DC area and are considering ending your marriage, going through a divorce, know someone else who is, or if you live I cannot recommend that you seek out Regina's legal counsel enough. If you don't live in the DC area, check out her Web site and spend some time looking through her many helpful blog posts; chances are she has already written about whatever you are going through!

Since 2007, Regina and I have teamed together working collaboratively as coach and attorney, as well as co-presenters at numerous professional conferences. I enjoy working with Regina. She is one of my favorite legal mind friends and continues to be one of my first referrals for my client’s legal needs. There are many large law firms in the Washington DC area. Regina offers individual attention that many large law firms cannot. She is super smart and a pleasure to work with.
