I had found Garrett law group while I was at court with a friend for a ticket she received during an accident. One of the attorneys in the courtroom was very impressive. My 3rd attorney in my divorce case was retiring (first one I wasn’t pleased with, second one was hired on by the Chesapeake commonwealth and couldnt continue with my case and 3rd retired). I approached this attorney asking if he did custody cases. He did not but recommended me to their family attorney. I was also very pleased with her however, she moved to Northern VA. Just my luck!! so James took on my case. He was great throughout the rest of my case. He also went to court with me for a traffic violation. He really understood in both cases the law and was very thorough and easy to work with. In both cases he gave me both options and recommendations. I referred numerous people to him and any who used his services all were very pleased. It was one of the attorneys (whose name I do not know) who brought me to that firm and any attorney I dealt with I would all give 5 stars and recommend anyone to their firm.

From start to finish Attorney JD Garrett was professional, very compassionate to what our family was dealing with. His fees were reasonable & fair, he listened attentively to our needs, was thorough explaining the process, was accessible even after hours about our concerns, and ALWAYS communicated with us during the entire process! Our family was in desperate need of an attorney who would fight for us & we are beyond grateful of the results. If your looking for an attorney who will work hard, than look no longer & hire an attorney who will get the job done! Attorney JD Garrett helped our family during a very tough time. Thanks for everything!!!!

Highly recommend JD. He was extremely helpful to our family and couldn’t have made it through a very difficult situation without his guidance and amazing knowledge of the law. JD was extremely responsive to all of my emails and phone calls, even on a Sunday! HIGHLY RECOMMEND him & his law firm.

This was our first time in a custody proceeding and Mr. Garrett was my son’s GAL. He is a terrific attorney who’s understanding, knowledgeable, calm, compassionate, professional, empathetic, and competent. The rapports and guidance were prompt, outstanding and timely all the time. Truly, my son and I couldn’t have asked for more. We are forever grateful for the positive result we had!

He was my granddaughter’s GAL, he was thorough and did what he had to when it came to ensuring my granddaughter’s safety. If I had any other problems I would for sure contact him and retain him.

James was courteous and professional during the duration of my case. He was prepared and knowledgeable about the issue at hand, and got the charges dismissed quickly. I would highly recommend this law group to anyone that needs an advocate.

Mr. Garrett explained the process for my child custody/visitation case thoroughly during my first phone call before I hired him. The case is settled now, with a wonderful outcome. He knows what to say and when to say it. His preparation, facts, and knowledge is superb. Billing is easy. Getting ahold of him is a breeze as well, and we communicate when I am not working, so he has flexibility with the time. Thank you Mr. Garrett. I’m really happy with him.
