If you need an attorney, then hire Silis & Associates! Tom represented me in a family law matter, and I could not have been more pleased with him and his entire staff and the results they delivered. With any attorney, you worry (or at least I did) with whether they would overbill you, actually listen to your needs, call you back, and give you the right advice. We don’t usually hire attorneys for easy situations, so picking the right attorney is crucial. I’ve known people who hired an attorney that would give them the kind of advice to keep the case from settling, so they could increase their fees. That was not Tom at all. Tom and his entire team listened to my (many) needs, responded to every call or email, understood what was important for me, and gave me the right advice, and was extremely fair and completely transparent in all billing matters. He and his staff always answered the phone when I called or called me back very promptly (which is not something I can say about other attorneys I or people I know have dealt with). He never made the matter worse (which is also something attorneys can do). And most notably, I respect Tom and his team for their absolute professionalism – with me, with the court, and with the other party. I was proud to have Tom stand by and represent me in court. He never overpromised and kept me fully appraised of my options to help me make the right decision. And we did. I felt like (and still do) a valued client. I am extremely happy with my results and highly – highly - recommend Silis & Associates!

I cannot be more grateful that I hired Mr. Silis and his team for my complex case. Mr. Silis and associates are extremely thorough and provided sound detailed advice throughout the entire process. Mr. Silis was clearly more prepared than the opposing counsel and aggressively fought until justice was served. I would certainly recommend Mr. Silis to all of my friends and family.

A few months ago, I was falsely accused by my Condominium Association of violating some rules of the common areas of my Condominium building. I was very concerned about the false allegations made against me, so I started a search for a good lawyer and came across one of the best lawyers in town, Mr. Tom Silis. Prior to meeting Mr. Silis, I spoke with other lawyers and felt they were uncomfortable about representing me based on the false allegations I was being accused of in my building. When I met with Mr. Silis, he knew what I was going through and was very supportive. At the hearing, the truth was revealed. Mr. Silis spoke on my behalf, while I relaxed and watched him put on an outstanding representation against the Association that accused me of the allegations. He made them see how their allegations were weak, baseless and laughable. I saw the look on some of their faces during the meeting and they looked humiliated and defeated. Mr. Silis performance was so impressive, the Association ended the meeting and withdraw the case against me. I've dealt with lawyers before, but, Tom Silis is one of the best and most knowledgeable lawyers around! He's one of the top lawyers in the Washington DC Metropolitan Area and an ally forever.

I contracted Mr Silis to handle an issue with a very stubborn contractor who underperformed on a large pool refinishing. I was ready to file a lawsuit but Mr. Silis advised that he send a detailed letter to explain, in legal terms, why our case was so strong. Mr.Silis also followed up with a phone call to the contractor to explain our position. I believe Mr. Silis' cordial and calm manner helped the situation to be fully considered by the contractor. The contractor almost immediately responded that he would redo his work and correct all the issues at his expense. I appreciated very much the fact that Mr. Silis was not in a rush to file a lawsuit and we were able to settle the dispute without having to go to court. And honestly, I think that also served the contractor well. So Mr. Silis' expertise helped both parties in the dispute. I believe many attorneys would have chased the fees and filed the suit.

Thomas Silis is an exceptional and professional attorney. The initial documentation was easily accessible online as well as by walk in. The first conversation by phone and the follow up meeting was extraordinary. The amount of legal knowledge off hand showed his brilliance. He guided me how to obtain the documentation which could support my case. The office is supported by his associates and paralegals and were able to answer any questions or concerns within minutes when Mr. Silis was in court. As the court date approached he verified the position and my documentation was in order. On the day of court he was prompt and started a 3 ½ hour negotiation with the district attorney and the officer. The result was case dismissed, the desired outcome. Sincerely, Lyn Kasik

Tom Silis and his team are true professionals in their field. Him and his team were thorough, methodic and very detail oriented in their approach to my case. Facing very serious charges, I needed a true professional that knew what they were doing. That's what you get with Tom Silis and his team. They seemed to look at every angle and every minute detail when putting together their defense. They took what seemed to be insurmountable odds and were able to negotiate an amazing deal for me that literally saved my future and career. They are intelligent, friendly, trustworthy and most importantly, responsive to a client's needs. I very highly recommend them...I can't say enough. Thank you Tom, TJ and the staff at Silis and Associates!

Tom was extremely knowledgeable, and compassionate during my highly contested child custody and divorce case. The advice Tom gave me was dead on, and guided me through this rough long period that no one wishes on anyone. Tom is a great negotiator but a fierce trial attorney that blew me away in court when it was necessary. Tom fights very hard and looked out for my best interest every step of the way. I never had a need for an attorney before my divorce and custody case but I was lucky to land an extremely talented, and professional attorney such as Tom Silis. Thank You Tom for being so compassionate, representing me extremely well, and winning all my arguments in court. You’re the gold standard in my book!

I have not needed a lawyer but a few times in my life. And in each instance after judgment had been passed I always wondered if my lawyer did all he could. It was an unfounded suspicion of their level of expertise and ability to talk and deal with the prosecutor. However, most recently I found myself in need of legal assistance. Silis and Associates were referred to me by a friend. Upon my initial consultation I really felt like I had someone on my side and that I was in good hands. The entire staff in the office has been professional, knowledgeable, accommodating and AVAILABLE!!! I met with Tom directly and his knowledge of the law and confidence of a particular outcome was very comforting. Well came my day in court and Tom helped to relax me and went to work. Initially I thought I would be there all day however within about an hour or so I was leaving the courthouse, with a favorable outcome and a GREAT start to my weekend. Thanks Tom!!! Please pass to your entire staff many thanks and appreciation for the accommodating and professional manner in which they dealt with me.

Thomas Silis and his staff were pleasant, professional and on point with the facts and what to expect based on my case. They under promised and over delivered and this is ultimately what I felt from the beginning they would do. I was not afraid that I would go to jail, have high fines, have my license taken away and this was not the presentation from another attorney. The reality is that this is the fact, so why not hear it. Just because I heard it, it actually made me feel that these people are not going to surprise me to a negative effect, but the other way. This is actually what happened at the end which is a positive result and I appreciate that. The fees were reasonable, and they were on top of the case and hardworking. Definitely, if you are in need of your case to have the upper hand, call this firm.

I hired Silis and Associates because they came highly recommended, and I'm glad I did. I gave Tom a complex divorce action. I had filed in one state, she filed here in VA. To make it more complex, she filed in Fairfax, we live in Alexandria... So, Tom and his crew diligently researched the law and found previous case law that defines "residency" which can be different from domicile. We had moved here about a year before we separated... She had made no overt actions to make VA her permanent state of residence. Her side went for my throat... Tom and his associates sifted through all the "stuff" and provided sound legal advise the entire time. We went to a hearing contesting the validity of her filing... and we won! Her divorce action was dismissed... Now off to the other state to finish the divorce.... Thank you Tom, and your entire team, for your dedication and attention to detail.... If you need a fantastic attorney... I recommend you go to Thomas Silis, Old Town Alexandria, VA...

I have not needed a lawyer but a few times in my life. And in each instance after judgment had been passed I always wondered if my lawyer did all he could. It was an unfounded suspicion of their level of expertise and ability to talk and deal with the prosecutor. However, most recently I found myself in need of legal assistance. Silis and Associates were referred to me by a friend. Upon my initial consultation I really felt like I had someone on my side and that I was in good hands. The entire staff in the office has been professional, knowledgeable, accommodating and AVAILABLE!!! I met with Tom directly and his knowledge of the law and confidence of a particular outcome was very comforting. Well came my day in court and Tom helped to relax me and went to work. Initially I thought I would be there all day however within about an hour or so I was leaving the courthouse, with a favorable outcome and a GREAT start to my weekend. Thanks Tom!!! Please pass to your entire staff many thanks and appreciation for the accommodating and professional manner in which they dealt with me.

Thomas Silis and his staff were pleasant, professional and on point with the facts and what to expect based on my case. They under promised and over delivered and this is ultimately what I felt from the beginning they would do. I was not afraid that I would go to jail, have high fines, have my license taken away and this was not the presentation from another attorney. The reality is that this is the fact, so why not hear it. Just because I heard it, it actually made me feel that these people are not going to surprise me to a negative effect, but the other way. This is actually what happened at the end which is a positive result and I appreciate that. The fees were reasonable, and they were on top of the case and hardworking. Definitely, if you are in need of your case to have the upper hand, call this firm.

I hired Silis and Associates because they came highly recommended, and I'm glad I did. I gave Tom a complex divorce action. I had filed in one state, she filed here in VA. To make it more complex, she filed in Fairfax, we live in Alexandria... So, Tom and his crew diligently researched the law and found previous case law that defines "residency" which can be different from domicile. We had moved here about a year before we separated... She had made no overt actions to make VA her permanent state of residence. Her side went for my throat... Tom and his associates sifted through all the "stuff" and provided sound legal advise the entire time. We went to a hearing contesting the validity of her filing... and we won! Her divorce action was dismissed... Now off to the other state to finish the divorce.... Thank you Tom, and your entire team, for your dedication and attention to detail.... If you need a fantastic attorney... I recommend you go to Thomas Silis, Old Town Alexandria, VA...
