Carolyn M. Grimes 500 Montgomery Street, Alexandria, VA 22314

"It’s always hard when reading reviews of lawyers online because there is always two sides and often the reviews are polar opposites. Additionally it’s not appropriate to broadcast the case details online especially when it involves kids that could one day read these types of reviews. What I can say is that when you walk into court and even opposing council refers to your lawyer as a “living legend” in the family court system in Virginia then it’s a good sign, or it’s just Carolyn Grimes. She is the most knowledgeable lawyer in this space that I’ve come across and will be direct with you in explaining the process and system. If you have kids it’s even better working with her because she really does take their best interests to heart when fighting for the best situation for your family. Honestly you really can’t go wrong here and I would hire her any day of the week and for all of my legal needs if I could."

"Carolyn represented me in my divorce and I can honestly say she was heaven sent! She was the third attorney I hired; she understood the issues with my case that my two previous attorneys could not grasp. She was kind, understanding, thorough, extremely efficient and knowledgeable and above all else she was highly recommended for her integrity and professionalism. Even when faced with an unreasonable and unprofessional opposing counsel who represented my ex-spouse at one time during the divorce process, Carolyn maintained her composure and integrity. In less than 1 year from the day I retained Carolyn's services, she got me the outcome I wanted and my divorce was final. Her fees were very reasonable and she provided detailed invoices that allowed me to understand exactly how her time was spent. Carolyn was truly an advocate for me and advised and encouraged me to make the best possible choices. If you are looking for a caring, competent and trustworthy attorney, I highly recommend you contact Carolyn."

"Carolyn Grimes is a highly ethical, committed attorney who supports clientele with integrity. She has consistently provided support for family matters for me and my associates - offering a realistic and determined approach to navigate family law in the VA commonwealth. Her transparency and values are some of her greatest traits - and explain why she is so successful in her field. I’m grateful for her steadfast support."

"Carolyn Grimes is extremely professional and well prepared. Her honesty and integrity is unquestioned. I would highly recommend her to anyone."

"Unethical and dishonest. Lies to judges to protect her client. Either a really poor quality lawyer or has zero ethics"
