The Hopkins Law firm provided excellent quality representation and value for the money, Michelle and her staff were first class, honest and they took a vested interest in my needs and paid close attention to details throughout the entire process. Michelle and her staff kept me informed throughout the process, quickly responding to any actions that I needed. Michelle and her staff were always timely with all documents unlike the opposing attorney/ex who were content with dragging this out at every turn and taking forever to do anything. Michelle was very knowledgeable about military Divorce procedures. I would highly recommend this law firm to friends , family and anyone needing excellent legal representation. If in the future I need any legal advice I will contact this law firm first. – L.S.

I had used this firm in the past with great results so I decided to go back when I needed some advice on a certain business matter I had. I was told that they could assist me. However, they recommended that I seek out an attorney that specializes in my particular business situation. They even gave me the name of a local attorney. I have had attorneys in the past take a case and try to figure their way through it. This was not the case here. It was obvious that this firm cares more about the client than the money. I will definitely be back soon for my estate planning. -B.S.

Michelle Hopkins provided excellent services in the preparation of wills (twice) and a pre-marital agreement. She provided useful advice and feedback and produced first rate documents. What I prized most was her engaging style and personal concern. She really brought the human touch to her work. It was as if you had a friend working with you. I would certainly commend her services to others seeking legal help.

Best decision I ever made!!! I wish I had initially retained The Hopkins Law Firm. I spent over 9 months with another Law Firm with little to show for, except a debt of almost $40K. Ms. Hopkins brought order to a very chaotic, emotional, trying case that had no end in site. Ms.Hopkins picked up the pieces of my case, set a court date right away, worked with me to develop of strategy and ultimately finalized a settlement within 5 months, without me accumulating another large debt for lawyers fees. Opposing counsel’s client was difficult to work with, at best. Ms. Hopkins was able to strategically motivate the OC and his client to keep the case moving forward and move toward a favorable settlement. The Hopkins Law Firm is professional, efficient, and compassionate. My correspondence were answered timely and thoroughly, Michael and his staff were efficient with billing, answered and explained all questions or concerns quickly. Ms. Hopkins worked after hours to accommodate my work schedule, she kept me grounded when needed, explained everything in terms I was able to understand, and fought for me to get a settlement that will allow me to properly provide for my children, that if left up to the Virginia Court System and Virginia Divorce Laws, I would most likely not have received otherwise.
Words can not express the amount of gratitude my family and I have for Ms. Hopkins and her staff. – M.K.

I knew Michelle was a great attorney, but it wasn’t until we were in the courtroom that I got to see how great she really is. I was so blown away that it was everything I could do to keep my jaw from dropping at certain times! The entire staff at The Hopkins Law Firm is pleasant and professional. They have helped us through our difficulties with divorce & subsequently custody. They maintained their professionalism even in the face of my ex’s rude and disrespectful behavior: Michelle and her associate attorneys are great at listening and are truly invested in your case. I appreciate the honesty and advice they give and recommend them very highly! -M.D.

Michelle and her team provided professional legal guidance through a less than pleasant separation and divorce process. I held Michelle’s advice and guidance in high regard. Michelle had excellent rapport with all the mediators and lawyers that we had to interact with. She also was able to conduct predictable analysis on legal decisions and outcomes. I highly recommend the Hopkins Law Firm for all custodial and family law issues without any reservation.

Absolutely superb client-focused service; smart, bright, incisive, and committed to winning. I am thoroughly delighted with the support I receive from Michelle and her terrific team. Best legal services in Northern Virginia – bar none! – G.G.
Michelle did a great job in representing me both effectively and professionally. In our first meeting , Michelle spelled out our strategy and executed it perfectly. I would recommend the Hopkins firm for any legal situation where you want a fair legal outcome!
Michelle’s communication skills and style are very direct and plain language which makes it easy and efficient to do business with her. She was encouraging with her advice while still being respectful of my wishes. I couldn’t afford to have outrageous legal bills because my ex decided to stop paying me child support and alimony. The Hopkins firm was successful with getting me all of the money owed to me plus interest and legal fees paid back to me. For billing, Michelle’s staff kept me up to date with detailed bills so I always knew where I stood. If I need to go back and revisit my case and she will definitely be the person I go to. – D.R.
I was referred to Ms. Hopkins while facing a very contentious change in custody and visitation. I was specifically searching for an attorney who placed significant value on practicing law with integrity and compassion. I found both in Ms. Hopkins.Throughout the case, her focus was on truly understanding what my overall objectives were. She listened intently to my concerns, was always patient and supportive, and answered my hundreds of questions along the way. She consistently presented the facts with objectivity. She was fair and always had the best interests of my children in mind. Ms. Hopkins brought a calm confidence to what was a very emotional, costly, and trying case. The outcome was absolutely in the best interests of the children and I cannot thank Ms. Hopkins and her team enough for the added support and high level of concern they all showed me and my family. – L.M.
Your knowledge of the laws of the state of Virginia are absolutely superior to any other firm or lawyer here in Prince William County.

The Hopkins Law firm’s personal and professional commitment in achieving the best possible outcome for my children and I was always their top priority. Despite the inherent costs associated with the divorce, they were always making sure my decisions were weighed against the potential financial and personal impacts associated with the law and required services to be rendered.

Mrs. Hopkins was a consummate professional. There was a quality of service that far exceeded my expectations. Not only was she a great lawyer but she was an outstanding person that helped me through a very difficult time. This was my first time hiring a lawyer and I did not know what to expect; honestly I was nervous and scared of the fact that being Active Duty Military the chances of me gaining custody of my child was slim. After our first meeting I knew I was in good hands. She has a very calming and reassuring way about her. It meant a lot to me that she CARED about my situation. Totally pleased with everything and would not change a thing. – L.D.

Michelle was a pleasure to work with. She took care of all of my needs immediately.
