I met Ms. Rice when my divorce/custody case was in tatters. My previous attorney had mismanaged my case and accrued excessive fees. My visitation with my kids had been reduced, child support was beyond state guidelines, and I was stuck with other financial obligations. I was drowning financially and emotionally. It was as if my attorney was representing my ex's interests. Ms. Rice took up my case, set up an affordable payment plan and thoroughly reviewed my case. She immediately gave me advice on how I could manage the ridiculous financial obligations without jeopardizing my case and her strategies worked. She tried my case for 3 full days in addition to other court appearances, reviewed voluminous materials, for half the cost of my previous attorney. During trial, she was fearless and unrelenting in presenting evidence and witnesses to support my case. So much so that my ex-wife who had set herself up for alimony and attorney fees ended up badly exposed that she received none. In addition, she won me a substantial amount for a monetary award AND my visitation was more than doubled. Had I used Ms. Rice from the beginning of my case, I would have saved thousands of dollars in attorney fees and support orders and secured a better custody arrangement. I would highly recommend you hire Ms. Rice if you are ever in a similar situation. You can be sure that she will fight for you.
A colleague from work referred me to Ms.Rice because of her positive experience with the attorney for her divorce and custody agreements and I would be needing her for the same. I was very pleased with her services and found that she was extremely patient in walking me through the process. She gave me several scenarios of what to expect and responded to my questions and concerns via email, cell phone, and in person. She has a strong network of professional, legal, and family resources in the county that benefited us in our case. Her confidence comes from years of experience and that was apparent to me when we went to court. I really appreciated the payment schedule that was arranged which makes it manageable and therefore affordable. Her firm uses a web-based software for keeping track of documents, billing, and conversations, which makes it easy to find everything you need online. That saves on losing documents or having to carry them around with you or worrying about anyone else seeing it. I like that she was direct and didn't waste time. Her advice based on her knowledge and experience, was very accurate. She not only was easy to talk to, she was reassuring with the expectations we had agreed about. She helped me and I have recommended her to other friends that were seeking divorce or had child support/custody issues.
Attorney Rice is excellent. She goes beyond the professional call of duty, by being accessible after hours via her cell phone and emails. We have even communicated on the weekend! All just so her clients feel carried along and never alone. You can't get better service than that. She also has been very considerate of my financial situation, giving me discounts and working on my case even when I owe her. Wow! What more is one seeking for in an attorney but someone compassionate, yet professional. She's the best!
I highly recommend Attorney Rice. She is professional, attentive and very responsive. She made a difficult situation easier to deal with. I would certainly hire her again!
I have retained Ms. Rice as my Lawyer for a very difficult and unusual divorce. As of this review date, we have not yet concluded the proceedings. Ms. Rice is highly effective, providing excellent guidance and counsel for me. Her legal documents are well written. She is amazingly skilled and very proficient in and around the courtroom. I would recommended her to any potential client that could be in a similar situation as myself.
Ms. Rice served as our family bankruptcy attorney. She took the time to clearly explain the differences between the filings and shepherded us through a very complex process. She was thorough and as we could see once e were in court, she was well recognized as an dependable expert and was respected by officers of the court. She made the process seem effortless and stood up for us when there were questions-challenges from court officials. She has he type of energy necessary to see the case through and she appears to be highly regarded among her legal peers. She took time to follow up and in our one on one sessions she was prepared to give us the answers we needed to make an informed decision. I highly recommend her as an attorney and would not hesitate to engage her in other areas where she has expertise. My wife and I are very satisfied with her service and impressed with her knowledge.
Mrs. Rice is a wonderful person as well as an amazing attorney. She is always prepared and takes each case personal. I enjoyed my time with her and she made a difficult time easier.
We are grateful for the outstanding services (Chapter 11 Bankruptcy) that we’ve gotten from Attorney L. Jeanette Rice over the years; actually, still on-going services is more appropriate. Prior to seeking Attorney Rice’s services, we worked with an Attorney on the same subject matter that left us very disappointed. After parting ways, our curiosity and skepticism was on full alert on avoiding such encounter. So, we embarked on detailed research on Attorneys with specialty in Bankruptcy in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. Thereafter, we elected Attorney Rice’ services; primarily on her experience and educational backgrounds. What sets Attorney Rice apart from others is her competencies – a bankruptcy lawyer, and also a Certified Public Accountant (CPA)…witty and astute! Law and Finance, very logical, we concluded. She is accessible; and her response time to our inquiries is nothing but impressive. Her fees was reasonable and affordable for us. I will always wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking service in her specialty.
We have nothing but good things to say so far about our experience with Mrs. Rice. She always kept us informed, returned our calls/emails very quickly. I would recommend her to my family, friends and anyone looking for a good lawyer.
Mrs. Rice handled my divorce in a timely and professional manner. She was very informative and transparent during the entire process.
