Barnes & Diehl, P.C. 7401 Beaufont Springs Drive, Richmond, VA 23225

"Melissa VanZile represented me in my divorce hearing and also my child custody hearing. She gave me advice before, during and after both proceedings that seemed honest and genuinely designed to be helpful not only for my financial interests, but by emotional well-being. She always came to meetings and the courtroom well prepared, and responded promptly to my phone call and email questions."

"I’ve been in and out of court with my ex since 2011. Barnes and Diehl is the third law firm that I have engaged and, by far, the worst. The lawyers assigned to me did no research, ignored the piles of evidence I brought from previous cases, and were so passive and reactionary that they basically handed the other team the ball and let them run with it. My case should have been an open and shut win, just like it was the last two times, but with Barnes and Diehl on my side we got our butts handed to us. Do not employ these lawyers. Do not trust them. Your family is worth more than Barnes and Diehl. They will take your money and do nothing for you. This law firm is a scam."

"At the very first call my issues were well received. The administrator, Cathy Patton, is amazing with providing guidance for your next steps. Also, I called and left a voice mail, and I was called back within the hour! These qualities let you know if a firm actually wants to take care of clients or just drain your bank account."

"When I found myself needing a divorce attorney after 35 years of marriage, a friend referred me to Ronald Evans at Barnes & Diehl. I was never privy to our marital finances and investments. I had no clue where to start or what to ask for. Ron took the wheel and guided me through the whole process from what statements to get to what I feel I deserve after 35 years. He took every piece of information I could think of and literally let me relax and when he put all those years together, we met and he gave me a plan of what I most likely could get financially to live the rest of my life quite comfortably, and he made that happen! I have NEVER been treated with such kindness, understanding, honesty, professionalism, RESPECT in my life as he exhibited. He is the epitome of a true gentleman and scholar. He is always calm and listens to everything you say, when it comes time for the opposing side, he has no problem getting his point across and in a professional and firm manner. When we needed specialists in the forensic field of finances, he knows the best people to get! His staff are equally as knowledgeable and kind and professional as he is. Needless to say, he took the third worst experience of my life and made the transition as smooth and easy as possible. Today I am the happiest in my life as I have ever been, and I owe it all to him. If you are looking for the BEST, call Ronald Evans!! There is no better. Thank you, Ron, for my freedom and happiness. Cordelia Kay (Harris) WILLIAMS !"

"I highly recommend Harris Leiner, especially for difficult divorces. Of all the lawyers I worked with, he was the one I wished I had hired first. He does amazing work. Most importantly, he empathized with my situation, kept me informed of developments in my case, and protected my assets from a former spouse who did not deserve them. He is easy to work with and I am forever grateful to him for helping me get my life back. Thank you, Harris!"
