I wish I could rate them lower than one star, their service across the board is abysmal. As a client I would have to send multiple emails, message them through the website, and make a call just to get anyone to pay attention to me. I genuinely felt I had no choice. They did nothing about my divorce for two years and non-stop padded the bill so that somehow I spent thousands and thousands for nothing. I had to fire them to get any movement in my case (with new representation) and they are still sending me bills for services t... read more

For the money that I paid I got piss poor representation by J. Stitely in Virginia Beach. I could have done better representing myself.

My experience with Melone Hatley law firm has been absolutely depressing . On October 2022, I hired Mr. James Whitus of Hatley, to handle my divorce proceedings . However, after a year of repeated information about my case , and no movement forward, and a bill that ran into several thousands of dollars , I decided to switch to another firm .Upon speaking with Erik, a supervisor at Hatley, I was recommended to work with Julia Stitley as an alternative.I decided to work with her since I did not want to start from scratch. How... read more

I just finished paying off legal fees that began in May 2022. From May 2022 to October 2022, I was handed off to six different lawyers, each one billing me for them to get up to speed on my case. Turnover in this firm is high. The original attorney handling my case quit the firm, and then the firm sued him so he could not continue to represent me. At that point I was in it for several thousands of dollars, i.e. "sunk costs." I couldn't afford the retainer for another attorney. The final attorney who represented me didn... read more

If I could rate Melone Hatley law firm with negative stars, I would do so without hesitation. My experience with them has been an absolute nightmare, and I strongly advise against entrusting them with any legal matters. Initially, I had a lawyer whom I trusted and valued highly. However, after she left the firm unexpectedly, I was handed off to Eric Schell, and that's when everything spiraled into chaos. From the outset, Eric displayed a shocking lack of interest in my case. During our initial meeting, he barely bothered t... read more

My experience Melone Hately has been a nightmare, and I strongly caution against using them for any legal matters. Melone Hatley law firm's negligence, incompetence, and disregard for their clients' concerns have resulted in excessive bills and a lack of progress. I strongly advise against using this firm for any legal matters.

This is the worst experience ever. I am on my 3rd lawyer with the firm and now I found out the paralegal has left. I filed Jan 2023 still don't have a pre-trial date. I'm paying all of this money to keep repeating myself to the next lawyer that charges me even more For the same information that I gave the previous attorneys! I will be going to the Va bar. I emailed for an update on Valentine's Day the paralegal was supposed to get back and still no response! I called to speak with the concierge I believe and she was supposed... read more

This was a very bad move the complete process was bad. I thought this was a good firm had good reviews. I needed an Attorney for my Divorce case Motion for Temporary and Permanent Possession of Martial Property. RICHMOND, VA HENRICO! I contact by text message on phone received a reply.

This was in July 28, 2023.... read more

hired this firm (Reston office) to help me get a quick, amicable divorce. I had my consultation with Mr. Vazquez, (4 yrs practicing) paid my fee, then he wanted the separation agreement my last lawyer typed up. (Last lawyer had to refund my money because he opened his own firm under a new name.) I was reluctant to provide another attorneys work to them but they said it would save me money rather than them starting from scratch. They literally took 7 days to cut and paste some new text into the document and return it to me.... read more
