I am always grateful when clients write thank you notes and leave satisfied scores on legal rating websites. Of course, results vary and past performance does not provide any guarantee for future cases, or your case in particular. But I’d be personally leery of becoming involved with an attorney with less than positive reviews. Wouldn’t you?
These reviews were left on my public Avvo profile, emailed to our firm, or directly sent to us from this website.

I was nervous and he walked me through the process and at the same time made the experience a pleasant one. I highly recommend attorney Van Smith for any big decisions you need dealing with a lawyer. On his side he has experience, commitment, and effective communication. He was always positive with his reassurance.

I just read your complimentary download of your excellent book, and the closing thoughts brought me to tears . . . . So, thank you again for this public service....

I used attorney Van Smith to create a proactive prenuptial agreement and was very impressed with his knowledge of the law and his ability to think strategically about issues.

I have been to court once with Mr. Smith. It was clear that his experience has taught him very effective strategy. He was anticipating the opposing attorney's underhanded move to obtain temporary support without a formal hearing. He was able to squash this, and demonstrated that he expected this all along. My first hearing was a clear victory. After the hearing, he sat down with me one on one in the courthouse to move on to the next step . . . . At this point, I have no regrets in hiring him and would repeat in a heartbeat. My only regret is not hiring him sooner.

Along with his excellent staff, Van has remained abreast of my desire for clarity and understanding regarding changes in my rapidly evolving settlement. An articulate personable negotiator, he creatively navigates the delicate balance between firmly expressing a client's views, and being too rigid to achieve the most positive result.

We had contacted other attorneys who gave no hope at all; Smith Strong did just the opposite and proved to be correct.
-
His argument was so convincing that the Judge changed his mind, and denied the petition for visitation by the Grandparents and the Father (a known drug user).

Represented me in a divorce. Could not have asked for anyone better. He offered ideas that I would not have known to think of, kept me abreast of all issues, and was extremely personally supportive of me and my situation. Do not chance getting another attorney - Mr. Smith and his staff will represent you well.
-
He's got a terrific website with a TON of useful information on it and he and his team can deliver compassionate and caring legal services in these tough times!

Van not only represented me in my child custody hearing; he also provided his services in a tangled web of protective order, child custody, child support, and divorce proceedings. ... Van has demonstrated that he does not and will not lose sight of what's in the best interests of his clients. His court room demeanor is knowledgeable, attentive, direct, and probably best described as having the beautiful strength and effectiveness of a quiet storm.

Van, I can't thank you enough! You gave him a second chance! And I'll make sure he never forgets it!!
