Chelsea and her team were extremely helpful and worked diligently on our case. Chelsea was thorough and went over and beyond with difficult circumstances. She and her team were efficient and timely. This is a wonderful group and very professional and caring.

I can’t say enough great things about Mrs. Vaughan and the entire team at Advocate Law. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and truly cared about my case. Mrs. Vaughan went above and beyond in every aspect—she took the time to explain everything clearly, kept me informed throughout the process, and fought hard on my behalf. Her knowledge and dedication gave me confidence during a stressful time, and the office staff was just as impressive—always friendly, organized, and quick to help with any questions or concerns I had. If you’re looking for a lawyer who genuinely cares and delivers results, I highly recommend Mrs. Vaughan and Advocate Law. Five stars all the way!

I will start off by saying Chelsea & her staff humbled me. She went above & beyond. She was honest, up front, supportive, knowledgable, caring, communicative, helpful, & overall a great experience. Margaret is nice & helpful on the phone in the office & in person. Chelesea's assistant Jessica was also amazing, always on it, very communicative, & got answers as soon as she could in a very timely manner. These ladies are awesome!

Chelesea gave her all for me throughout my entire case. She not only care about the outcome of litigation, but takes great pride in being someone who supports and respects her clients. She spent countless hours working with me, responding to my every message and call, and ensuring I was able to do what was best for my son. I’m lucky to have found someone so kind, helpful, and professional. I highly recommend her firm as being the best in Roanoke.

The firm's response to my review shows how little they pay attention to the work they do. Please read and be warned: This firm was unreliable, unresponsive, unorganized, and, honestly, just super unprofessional from beginning to end. I would caution anyone and everyone against hiring them. Family law issues are hard enough to navigate without the added stress of involving Advocate Law. If you want smart, hardworking, and empathetic representation, look elsewhere.
