Your support and services are greatly appreciated and I’m happy with the outcome.

More +

I appreciate your due diligence on this matter. Your support and services are greatly appreciated and I’m happy with the outcome. I have to say, your initial contact system was fast and why I decided to go with your team. Your team’s communication and attentiveness were superb and timely. Please send many thanks to your team for me. I will make sure to contact you if I have any more legal matters in the future. Which, I hope I don’t, but I know I have an effective and results driven team on my side. Keep up the good work!

Thanks

Best customer service experience ever!

More +

Mr. Shilling and his team will get the job done! True professionalism! Would refer to anyone needing legal services! Thank you so very much!

I Can Not Possibly Thank Them Enough.

More +

Brandon and his team were able to navigate me through an incredibly difficult time. They kept me focused on what was important and continuously looked out for my best interest. I can not possibly thank them enough.

Kellam T. Parks, Esquire took care of resolving credit fraud errors, thereby restoring good credit back to client.

More +

Many thanks to Mr. Parks and his staff for the outstanding customer service I received when I discovered that I was a victim of identity thief and one of the major credit reporting agency had placed incorrect information on my credit report. From the begining, Mr.Parks listened to my concerns and guided me through the process to get my issues resolved. His staff would call or send e-mails to keep me informed about what was going on with my credit report. Many thanks for taking such good care of me and for restoring my good credit. I hope anyone having issues with their credit will contact you and your staff for assistance. You are the best and thanks for caring!

I learned the hard way what I needed in a lawyer for my divorce. Fortunately, I had a chance to use that knowledge to found what I needed in Allison and team at PZ.

More +

A divorce is emotional, scary and often frustrating. Allison and Kelly helped navigate the process by helping me develop a plan and sticking to it. Communication and honesty during this process were second to none. There are lawyers out there that are cheaper and maybe some more expensive. Even if you pay $0 for any lawyer/paralegal other than Allison and Kelly, you’re paying too much.

I appreciated his hard work and I was VERY HAPPY WITH HIS SERVICE! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

More +

On my way to work one morning I got a HUGH speeding ticket. I reached out to a Lawyer Friend who referred me to Atty Andrew Shilling. And Man didn’t he get to work fast! I was terrified! He did his job behind the scenes and he instructed me to take the on-line drivers test which was brutal but worth it.

Shelly was a pure professional dealing with my divorce and custody case.

More +

She provided flawless counsel to me and provided the best representation an single military father of three kids could ask for. She is thorough, thoughtful, and very knowledgeable. Shelly never hesitated to shoot me the hard facts and every aspect of an outcome… good or bad. Her persistence to excellence in representing me has led to a better life for me and my children. Thank you Shelly for being there for me in my time need. I would recommend her easily for anything pertaining to family law within her jurisdiction.

I have hired Mr. Barlow twice now, and he has done a great job of communicating with me and got me some of the best deals possible with the prosecutor that he could have gotten.

More +

He is always very nice when I go in to talk with him and has a calm demeanor. If I ever hear of anyone with legal problems, I give them his card. I’ve hired 5 other lawyers in my life and none have been nearly as professional as Mr. Barlow.

From day one, Shilling was upfront and honest about what I should expect as a result of my divorce.

More +

I came in with unrealistic expectations, and I was driven by anger. Shilling explained his services and costs thoroughly and very clearly. He never charged me for phone calls, emails or meetings. He personally contacted me while on his family vacation when I needed his guidance. With his level head and business sense, together we settled a case out of court with custody, support and over 1000 acres of land to divide up, for a third of what I could have spent with other lawyers. He remains calm and does not rush into court and waste time or money. But, if and when the time comes, he is fierce and will protect you in court. I will never be able to explain just what Shilling has done for me and my daughters. I will forever be grateful for his services. If you are in need of a lawyer that will protect you and your family, and not break the bank, Shilling is the lawyer that you need.

Amazing Lawyer and Friend upon meeting Aaron I was skeptical of hiring a lawyer for my custody case. But once I sat down with Aaron for our consultation he was nothing but amazing.

More +

For once I met a lawyer that was not judging me he talked to me like a friend would. Aaron went above and beyond with keeping in contact and assisting me every step of the way. Upon our court dates Aaron was phenomenal not only was he able to get my child support payments finalized but I was able to receive more than I thought possible. Aaron was also able to prove without Reasonable Doubt that my ex was unstable and unfit parent providing me with sole physical and legal custody. When waiting to go before the judge unlike other lawyers Aaron was sitting outside the courtroom with me the entire time keeping me in conversation relaxed and laughing a little silly jokes. Aaron felt more like a friend somebody that I can trust and confide in then a stuffy lawyer who is only out to get your money. Even after our case was done and closed Aaron still kept in contact to follow up with me to make sure that both myself and my daughter were doing good. I have told all of my friends and family if you ever need a lawyer Aaron is a person to hire. I will be hiring Aaron again within the very near future to assist and work his magic for my husband to be able to adopt my daughter.

My Family Has Used The Services Of Caryn West At Parks Zeigler For A Few Years

More +

My family has used the services of Caryn West at Parks Zeigler for a few years now for various issues regarding sudden 2 deaths and my will and end of life paperwork. My sister is a paralegal in New York and she did a lot of research to find Caryn for us in Virginia to settle the passing of my uncle’s affairs. None of us can imagine how we could have gotten thru these tragedies without her knowledge, strength and compassion. I can not recommend her or her firm strongly enough! Even at the onset of the covid-19 breakout she & her great team didn’t miss a thing when it came to being there for us. Endless, eternal thanks! You won’t find a better firm.

I highly recommend Parks Ziegler PLLC and Andrew Shilling to anyone needing legal representation.

More +

I approached Parks Ziegler PLLC (specifically Andrew Shilling) for representation with my divorce. A friend recommended him based on the outstanding representation he provided during her divorce process. Andrew was very professional and provided outstanding guidance throughout the entire process. He made it his mission to effectively communicate and collaborate with me during this difficult time in my life. As a result of his efforts and legal acumen we were able to achieve a positive outcome with regards to my divorce to include child custody and child/spousal support. As a result, I received child and spousal support decisions that were fair and equitable but more importantly a child custody schedule that allows me to spend time with my son and continue to foster our relationship.

Edwin Booth Should Be Your First Call!

More +

I’ve been working with Edwin for over a year now. Throughout that time, I’ve seen first-hand just how much he truly cares about helping his clients. If you are searching for a personal injury attorney in Virginia Beach, Edwin Booth should be your first call!

I am beyond grateful to this team and especially my attorney Morgan McEwen.

More +

Where do I even begin! I am a first time father and after separating from my partner shortly after the birth of our child things went from good to bad very quickly. During the span of a little over a year I was able to walk away with exactly what I had hoped for and then some in regards to custody and support for my child. I don’t know how this situation would have played out without them and I can’t thank them enough.

Mr. Barlow has provided amazing representation for me.

More +

He is very thorough with his work and prepared in court. He reviewed all evidence in my case and was able to get my DUI and refusal DISMISSED!! I highly suggest him for any court matters you may have.

He has done an extremely great job and would recommend him to anyone.

More +

I found Mr. Shilling through another lawyer because I wanted a lawyer that was able to practice in both VA and NC. He helped me through my separation and currently working on my Trust Fund for my children.

I highly recommend Andrew Shilling as he is knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile to ensure his clients have a positive outcome!

More +

We had a warranty issue that required us to seek legal assistance. The warranty company made promises and failed to follow through. We needed to seek legal assistance to ensure we received the item we were promised as well as the item that we paid for through our contract. I am so thankful we hired Andrew Shilling because he made the process EASY from start to finish! He was easy to reach by phone and by email. He explained the entire process and answered all of our questions. The process was swift! Due to his hard work we received the items that we paid for and issue was fully resolved.

Look no further, hire Brandon! Anyone who’s been engulfed in a child custody litigation scenario knows and understands the emotional struggles that come along with it. Not only did I experience this, but my situation went on all the way through the Court of Appeals. Look no further, hire Brandon!

More +

I found myself in front of multiple judges in multiple courtrooms facing everything from contempt of court charges to jail time.

Sitting next to Brandon during these hearings/trials gave me the ability to gut through them. I would not have handled these hearings very well otherwise. I say this because Brandon knows the law. He knows it backward, forwards and upside down and it’s apparent that the judges know and respect this.

Brandon will not coddle you. He has a tough exterior, but inside the courtroom, his tough turns to unstoppable. He will use the law, every single letter of it, to right the wrongs.

His firm is fantastic. Everyone from the paralegals to the administrative staff. They’ll treat you like family and are sensitive to the stress that comes along with feeling like you’re unable to protect your child.

I HIGHLY recommend Brandon.

Darla

I Highly Recommend Kellam For Any Legal Needs

More +

My husband and I were splitting up after a short marriage. I did not know any divorce attorneys, but another lawyer referred me to Kellam. From our initial meeting I knew I wanted him as my attorney. Divorce is an extremely stressful time in one’s life. There were so many times I called Kellam stressed out and he was always there for me. I wish I could count the times he would tell me “not to worry,” that I needed to concentrate on medical issues that I was going through at the time and that he would handle everything on the legal end. I have always felt he made my personal needs as well as my professional needs a priority. I highly recommend Kellam for any legal needs.

Kelly A., Virginia Beach, VA

Attorney Allison Anders remained calm and professional as she guided me through my divorce and custody battle. She kept me on track and ultimately guided me to something I never thought I would ever actually achieve – freedom. I finally am divorced and have custody of my children.

More +

There was a point in time when I felt like I was going to spend my life in separation limbo. I had spent five years fighting for the right to be a parent to my daughters and honestly, I had all but given up hope, hope that I would get to be the kind of dad I wanted to be, hope that we would be able to move on with our lives. I’d started to lose hope that I would get to have anything but this toxic back and forth with my ex from which I couldn’t escape. When I say that Allison changed my life, I mean that literally. Where I could see nothing outside of my own rawly scraped emotions and exhausting desperation, Allison’s knowledgeable professionalism was a life raft in a sea in which I felt like I had barely been treading water. She kept me calm and on track and ultimately guided me to something I never thought I would ever actually achieve–freedom. Even when my ex dropped a bomb on us at the eleventh hour, Allison nimbly sidestepped it and now I’m happy to say that I am finally divorced with the custody of my children I’d been fighting so hard for. Thanks to her, my family and I can finally start moving forward.

Kyle M.

Awesome attorney!
Shelly Wood is a very knowledgeable family law attorney who takes the time to understand her client’s needs and is always well prepared.

More +

She was able to have my ex-husband’s parental rights terminated so we could proceed with the step-parent adoption. She explained everything that we could expect along the way in terms that were easy to understand. We had the best possible outcome as my husband was able to adopt my oldest two children. We are very pleased with the quality of the service we received and I would highly recommend Shelly Wood for all of your family law needs.

Excellent, hard working lawyer. I hired Mr Barlow for a criminal case for my husband and have been greatly appreciative and happy with his knowledge and expert opinions.

More +

He’s helped me going through the process with my husband and explained ups and downs of what to expect. I would recommend him or anyone in his practice for any and all up coming interactions with the law or court.

Attorney Shilling provided exceptional guidance to my grandmother during complex estate planning.

More +

He was well versed in the legal intricacies of estate planning and irrevocable living trusts and was able to clearly communicate the information in terminologies that she was able to understand. We found him to be comprehensive, patient, and compassionate throughout the process.

Aaron was efficient, professional and personable.

More +

He lifted a huge weight off of my shoulders and most importantly got my daughter back in my arms. I will most certainly be retaining him in the near future for trail. Highly recommend!

Mr. Booth really did an amazing job throughout the process of my case.

More +

Mr. Booth really did an amazing job throughout the process of my case. He and his assistant remained in contact throughout and on the day in court he was fantastic. Thanks again Ed.

I’m forever grateful to everyone for their help and support.

More +

I’d like to thank the Parks Zeigler, PLLC for their help professionally and personally. I recently went through a divorce and needless to say it was stressful.

I met with Kellam and after talking with him I felt immediate relief. Very professional and a straight shooter, completely honest about what to expect throughout the process. I had bad days but Kellam reassured me that it’ll work out and it did. Deb and Lia are the best! Can’t thank them enough for their hard work and helping me through the difficult times. I’m forever grateful to everyone for their help and support.

I’d recommend Kellam’s law office to anyone in need of legal help. Thank you all again!

Morrell C., Hampton,Va

Absolutely Thrilled With Mr. Zeigler

More +

There is nothing that I can say that would do the representation I received from Mr. Zeigler and his firm justice. He was diligent in advising me of my rights and what steps I needed to take from the moment my former wife and I separated. And when I say from the moment, I mean that he took my call on no notice within 30 minutes of me leaving my marital residence and made sure that I did everything necessary to set myself up for success in my matter. From that point forward Mr. Zeigler made sure that the separation and divorce process was as smooth as it could be and also ensured that it disrupted my already stressful life as little as possible.

Mr. Zeigler and the rest of the team at P&Z have my utmost respect and deepest gratitude for the outstanding representation and support I received from him and his firm. I would highly recommend him as an attorney.

Jesse W of Virginia Beach

Kellam is excellent at what he does

More +

“Kellam is excellent at what he does. When my wife was having custody issues over her oldest son, Kellam took up the case and got us everything we asked for – settling visitation, child support, and even got us some back support that we never expected. He knows his stuff. Since the first time Kellam helped us, we have needed counsel for three separate things and he has always given us the best advice in the areas he practices and referred us to the right people to take care of those things he does not handle. I hope that I never need a lawyer again, but if I do, my first call will be to Kellam.”

Robert K., Virginia Beach

Divorce Attorney Allison Anders Protects Client’s Interest

More +

I wanted to thank Allison Anders, Kelly Shaffer, and the entire team at Parks Zeigler for helping me during a very difficult situation. Going through a divorce is never an easy situation, but Allison and her team helped me by walking me through the entire process and giving me excellent advice, especially when a last minute curve ball took me by total surprise. She ensured my interest were protected, which was a great relief given the stress of the situation.

Thanks!

Craig A. Zuidema, Norfolk

We very much appreciate his expertise in our Estate Planning and would highly recommend Mr. Shilling for your legal needs.

More +

My husband and I reached out to Mr. Shilling to help with our Estate Planning. He was found to be very knowledgeable, professional and gave us exceptional guidance in preparing our Trust and other necessary estate documents. Within a few weeks we were in his office to complete the paperwork. At that time Mr. Shilling made sure to explain the Trust and the funding of it as well as the other specific documents and their purpose.

I would definitely recommend Shelly Wood

More +

I hired Shelly Wood for a child support case. She was extremely professional and also very personable. She made sure we understood every step of the process. We now have her helping us with an adoption case. I would definitely recommend Shelly as an attorney.

I highly recommend Mr. Barlow to anyone looking for a defense attorney in the Chesapeake area.

More +

He went above & beyond on my fiancé’s case. He also kept me updated which was greatly appreciated.

I hired Mr. Shilling to handle my Uncle’s estate, who died without a will.

More +

My Uncle died in Virginia, I live in California and was working full time. Mr Shilling has been straightforward with what I needed to do and what he would do. He has been kind and caring and informative and handling as much of the paperwork that he can so that I don’t have to take time off work and fly there. I highly recommend him to anyone who has a complicated probate case, etc. He is a warm, caring individual who has helped me through a very emotional, trying time. Thank you Andy!

We found the whole experience of working with Caryn and paralegal Tiffany Pless quite pleasant and efficient.

More +

Having recently changed our address, our bank accounts and our brokerage firm, we needed to update our wills. We went to Parks/Zeigler for advice on the best way to word our specific requests. Even though we were in the thick of the COVID plague, we were able to confer with attorney Caryn West on a secure website to discuss our changes. The PZ team finished our documents in a timely fashioned. We highly recommend the firm Parks Ziegler for their efficiency, paperless environment, and their overall kindness.

Wayne and Linda Norfolk

The best part was how easy it was to speak to Mr. Shilling about my situation – as hiring a lawyer is usually for a hard time in your life.

More +

I had a phone consultation with Mr. Andy Shilling recently. First time having to speak with a lawyer for my own needs. He explained many things clearly with easy to follow analogies and explained many law references. He advised me with lots of options. He was also patient with me when he needed to repeat himself for my own note taking.

I Worked with Ed Booth to settle a personal injury claim. Him and his team really made this process stress free for me.

More +

After a few weeks of just dealing with the insurance company for my car, I wanted to cry thinking about what I would have to go through dealing with the personal injury side of the house. Ed and his team took all the stress out of the process for me and always made themselves available to answer my questions and let me know my options. I would 100% recommend Ed to anyone dealing with a personal injury case. Thank you Ed and Team PZ for helping me get through this process.

Our hearts could not be more full. This is not the first time we have used the firm and are so happy we chose them for the adoption.

More +

Well, big announcement. A little over a month ago we applied for adoption of Oliver, my son. Our strong, sweet little man. Our strong, dedicated, loving man also known as daddy. Both will now share the same last name. Will be one. We will be a complete family after a LOT of tragedy. So incredibly happy we were able to do this and with such quickness and efficiency thanks to Parks Zeigler. We could not be more thankful.

Brandon is hard working, ethical, knowledgeable, with no fear of confrontation.

More +

Without hesitation, I write this recommendation for Brandon Zeigler. As a practicing CPA in Virginia Beach for nearly 20 years, I have known and worked with Brandon for at least 15 of those years. I have referred him many clients and they have all been impressed with his work ethic and legal chops. I have used him both personally and professionally for many years and I have been in a court room with him on multiple occasions. Brandon is hard working, ethical, knowledgeable, with no fear of confrontation. Should you ever have to go to court, as I have said many times, you certainly want Brandon on your side of the aisle. Moreover, heaven help you if he’s standing on the opposite side of courtroom.

Kevin S of Virginia Beach

I feel Kellam truly has a passion for what he does and is not practicing law simply to run up your bill.

More +

“Kellam made the process of going to court as least stressful as possible for me. He handled my case regarding custody with my son as a top priority. Kellam worked weekends and long nights in order to ensure we were prepared at all times. When I had concerns about certain issues, he was able to communicate with me in a timely manner, whether by the phone, email, or in person. Being that I live in Maryland, Kellam did an amazing job of keeping me constantly informed and aware of what he was doing and why. He not only has great knowledge of the law but an ideal way of explaining things to a me so I could actually understand what was transpiring. This I feel is very important because when your emotions and thoughts are going all over the place, confusing legal terms and ‘law speak’ only leads to you missing information. I feel he truly has a passion for what he does and is not practicing law simply to run up your bill. Billing was always fair and very detailed. Kellam Parks will continue to handle all my custody matters with my son as long as I have a need for a lawyer.”

Chris P., Maryland [Chesapeake Case]

Being a man in the state of Virginia, I was, as many men feel, fighting an uphill battle, nevertheless we prevailed with the direction and advice Ms. Anders provided.

More +

I couldn’t have asked for better representation. When emotions ran high during child custody battles, Ms. Anders remained composed and always steered us in the right direction. Being a man in the state of Virginia, I was, as many men feel, fighting an uphill battle, nevertheless we prevailed with the direction and advice Ms. Anders provided. Not only did she provide sound legal advice but, she was also mindful of my budgetary restraints. She may not be the cheapest attorney around but she helped save me so much more in the long run. If I were to do it again, I would certainly retain Ms. Anders again.
Thanks

Scott

After a nearly 2-year long custody battle, Mrs. Wood recently helped me gain custody my two children.

More +

Her knowledge & professionalism were only matched by her compassion & dedication. She kept me well informed during the entire process & promptly answered any questions I had. There is no way I could have been successful without her experience, guidance, & encouragement. There is no one else I would rather have on my side. I would highly recommend Mrs. Wood to anyone needing a family law attorney.

My wife was charged with Reckless driving, resulting from a motor vehicle accident. While searching for an attorney, I ran across Jason Barlow and reached out.

More +

Mr Barlow spoke with my wife and after their initial conversation, she felt a sense of relief, and stated” my case is in good hands”. While awaiting the court date Mr Barlow and his staff, maintained contact with my wife, answering the multitude of questions she had. On the day of the court appearance, Mr Barlow met with my wife in a timely fashion and explained the process for the day. The case was dismissed. Anyone that finds themselves in need of a reliable attorney, should look up Jason Barlow.

I have used Mr. Shilling a number of times for various areas of law. He has represented me and my family with nothing but the best of legal knowledge and priority.

More +

Mr. Shillings is always available in my times of need and makes me feel like family not just a client. I have recommended him to everyone who asks me about a lawyer. Mr Shillings has always handled my cases with the upmost professionalism, respect and the results were beyond my expectations. I thank Mr Shillings for the compassion that he has in the law industry to represent me and my love ones.

Mr. Booth is simply the best attorney I could have hired.

More +

I’ve hired him twice to defend me against false criminal charges brought on by an angry and unstable ex-wife attempting to gain favor with the court during a difficult divorce and custody dispute. There was a lot on the line being that I am a 24 year Naval Officer. Criminal charges like the ones I was facing could have prematurely ended my career. Mr. Booth did an excellent job managing each charge in both cases. Both cases ultimately led to successful dismissals (at trial) and then expungements. What stands out the most to me was his personal attention to me during both cases. He and his staff are simply the most professional I’ve ever worked with. He is extremely responsive, approachable, and he always made it a point to call me if I needed him. He always took the time to explain the legal process and my options, while thoroughly answering all of my questions. He is thoughtful and extremely thorough in his approach. His grasp and recollection for all the details in both my cases was truly impressive. His professionalism is immediately apparent when you first meet him. You can immediately sense the respect other attorneys have for him, as well as the respect he commands in the courtroom. He is truly passionate in his representation and the best attorney you could hope to find. I’ve recently recommended him to another military member that needed solid representation and I’d immediately recommend Mr. Booth again without hesitation if I heard someone needed an attorney. He is my first choice if I need an attorney in the future.

If you find yourself in need of legal representation, this is definitely the best firm in the area by far!

More +

I’ve called 5 other firms before I found Parks Zeigler! On my Initial call I spoke with Mrs.Deborah and she listened to what I had to say and assured me I’d be in good hands if my situation were to need litigation. It was the first firm I had reached out to, that actually seemed like they cared for their clients. That was the deciding factor for me. They are willing to work with you and go the extra mile to make sure things are done correctly and efficiently! This is my 2nd year with them and I have no regrets!

Mr. Zeigler has been my personal attorney for years. He has handled my divorce and various business matters.

More +

I have found Mr. Zeigler to have high work ethics and extreme professionalism. He sets his standards to win, and at the same time keeps one grounded. Mr. Zeigler is the attorney you seek, to have at your side inside and outside of the courtroom. He has handled my divorce and various business matters. I have, and will continue to recommend him to all my friends and family.

George

I have also referred Kellam to friends and clients of mine and will continue to do so

More +

“Kellam Parks is an exceptional attorney. He is well versed in matters of the law and, as would be expected, very professional. However, I believe his most admirable quality to be his caring and personable nature, which is critical in family law matters. Kellam is not one of those lawyers who is out simply to make money, he truly cares about helping his clients. I have enlisted Kellam’s services multiple times with no regret. I have also referred Kellam to friends and clients of mine and will continue to do so. If you are in need of legal assistance, you can’t go wrong with Kellam Parks!”

Ellen H., Chesapeake

I learned from her to put the anger for my ex aside and focus on what was best for my daughter.

More +

I found myself in a nasty custody battle and spoke to a few different attorneys, but once I met Allison and she took the time to get to know me and my concerns, I knew I had found someone who would help me and be there every step of the way. She was so patient with me as I was having a very difficult time and was quite needy of her reassurance. She was honest and told me when my demands were fair or unreasonable, and made me see what was important, that being my daughter. I learned from her to put the anger for my ex aside and focus on what was best for my daughter. Allison was always prompt when responding to me and made me feel that I had someone who cared every step of the way. While I pray I never have to go through another custody battle, if I did, I would certainly call Allison again to have her by my side. She really helped me to see what was important and what simply wasn’t worth a fight. She helped me to remain a mature adult rather than to act in rash haste! Thank you Allison!!!!

Amy

I will always go to Shelly!

More +

Shelly Wood is awesome, fair, and extremely knowledgable! She helped me through the hardest time in my life and I always send friends and family who need help in family law her way!

This is the most professional and direct law firms I’ve ever seen in my entire life. Mr. Barlow is a wonderful attorney he is a man of his word and everything that he stated to me as well as my son happened just like he said.

More +

It does not get better than that. The wonderful paralegals and assistants working in his office are awesome as well. They are so on point and prompt about everything they do. They take pride in their work and being a part of the law firm. They make you feel well, upon the first consultation you will feel like a part of the family and that is what I love the most. I would refer Mr. Barlow as well as his paralegals and assistance to anyone for any type of legal problems you may face. Once again thank you all and Christina is the bomb.

Mr. Shilling is the most professional, sincerely passionate and driven counselor I have had the pleasure of seeking guidance and qualified counsel.

More +

He is aggressive when required and reserved when necessary. The best of all; he doesn’t like to lose. He has my highest of recommendations.

I have been represented by Mr. Booth once and have just retained him for a second time for a personal injury case.

More +

Mr. Booth is very attentive to your needs and answers any questions you have. He is very thorough when it comes to putting a case together and represents himself and his clients very well in the courtroom. I would highly recommend him.

Everyone at this law firm is amazing.

More +

And I can’t speak highly enough of Allison Anders. They set the bar extraordinary high and set an exceptional example of a great law firm. Which is very far and few between. You will be in great hands.

There is nothing that I can say that would do the representation I received from Mr. Zeigler and his firm justice.

More +

I couldn’t be more pleased with the services provided to me by Mr. Parks.

More +

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the services provided to me by Mr. Parks. He had my complete trust during his recent representation of me in a very complicated situation. The case was handled efficiently and settled completely in my favor. Attorney Parks demonstrated a great knowledge of the law. He is trustworthy, caring and a fine human being, as well. In a time when mediocrity is the norm, it is rare to find a gentleman with the high quality characteristics that Attorney Parks possesses.”

Connie H., Norfolk

5 Stars Allison and the staff at Parks Ziegler are wonderful!

More +

They are professionals who are very knowledgeable and take the time to listen to you and review the best options possible for your situation. I highly recommend Allison and Parks Ziegler!

Shelly has been a great help and support for me while I have been going through my custody case.

More +

She helped me to relax and walk me through the proceedings so I didn’t feel as anxious. She listened to my concerns and made sure I had a very complete plan in place. I highly recommend her.

Mr. Barlow handled my case well.

He was straight forward and said it like it really was. He came to the jail and talked to me and explained what was happening. He talked to the prosecutor and got her to give me a good deal.

I have retained Mr. Shilling twice over the past ten years.
In both cases he provided excellent legal service.

More +

Both cases ended up in going to Court although he made every effort to settle the cases prior to the hearing. These cases occurred in different jurisdictions also. He kept me informed at all times and he was obviously prepared for Court. On cross examination, in the recent case, he destroyed the credibility of the plaintiff. He asked the right questions to get to the heart of the matter. His fees were very reasonable for the legal services rendered. With my former job, I worked with many attorneys in the Tidewater area and I would highly recommend Mr. Shilling. Mr. Shilling is absolutely top notch!

Mr. Booth truly cares about his clients. He is a great personal injury lawyer in the Virginia Beach area! Call him with all of your questions.

Everyone I worked with was able to make this process easy and less stressful for me.

More +

This was my first time every having to get an attorney, and Parks Zeigler, PLLC was the best choice I made. Because of Parks Zeigler, PLLC, I was able to start school on time. Everyone I worked with was able to make this process easy and less stressful for me. Thank you so much Parks Zeigler, PLLC, for taking the time out to help me retrieve my W2s I greatly appreciate you all for everything you have done.

Brandon is the real deal!

More +

He is a no nonsense type of lawyer. He is aggressive in getting his client what they deserve. Excellent office staff that stays informed. I have utilized his firm twice and would not think to go elsewhere. Thank you PZ

Richard offers his testimonial about his experience with Kellam T. Parks

More +

“I have used Kellam for my companies’ legal needs in the Tidewater area for many years. Kellam has a natural intuition on figuring people out. He has always handled our cases in the utmost professionalism and has been able to acquire the results we were looking for and more.”

I was forced into a grandparent visitation case last year. I was a complete wreck and Allison at Park Ziegler took on the case.

More +

She was so kind and professional while winning the case. I certainly hope that this will never happen again but if it did I would recommend this firm to anyone going through the same.

I strongly recommend Shelly Wood!

More +

She is fantastic- thorough, compassionate, tenacious and prompt in communications. The staff is always professional and friendly. The best!

Jason Barlow is a straight shooter and was an absolute sniper in the courtroom!!!

More +

He was highly recommended to us based on his background, so we gave him the opportunity to manage our civil matter case. After a few emails, we set up a meeting to discuss our case/situation and he determined that we had a solid case. Our case was continued on two occasions which added about another 60 days of anxiety. When we finally got our day in court it was a slam dunk. Jason took the time to walk us through what to expect, and frankly he was spot on. Like I said he was a straight shooter and honest, he did not promise the world. He said that we had a strong case and to trust him. I am glad that we went with him. We won our case because our lawyer was prepared and he ensured that we were as well. If you need a “Ben Matlock” on your case, don’t hesitate to give Jason Barlow a call. He also has an excellent, well versed Paralegal Christina who is on top of things and will ensure your questions and messages are addressed accordingly.

Mr. Shilling has handled our family legal matters for the past 8-9 years and we have been very pleased with his services.

More +

The “type of cases this lawyer handled” for us only allowed one type to be selected but in addition to Wills, he has also handled Custody and Criminal Defense for our family, along with advice on other matters. He responds to our messages, is very ethical, and I feel very confident with him representing us in any matter. Mr. Shilling deserves the highest rating possible.

Highly recommend Edwin for your personal injury matters.

More +

Wonderful personal injury lawyer! Great time management and excellent communication. Exceptional client services and administrative skill within the firm! Kept in contact with both myself and the insurance companies. Worked with me consistently to win the case!

Very professional and to the point.

More +

My entire divorce process took maybe 6 months so it wasn’t bad at all. Worth the restrained as well. I highly recommend to all!

Phenomenal experience! Consultation was initially with Brandon and then Allison was designated primary.

More +

Not enough kind words for the entire organization. Professional, courteous, extremely knowledgeable and diligent. Allison and her staff were there with me every step of the way through a particularly difficult divorce and never once did I feel alone. Incredible attention to detail and always available to answer questions or provide reassurance. Allison made an otherwise miserable situation easily bearable.

Kellam has been invaluable in addressing my legal issues

More +

“Kellam has been invaluable in addressing my legal issues. At our first meeting he immediately put me at ease and provided a calm, positive environment to discuss my situation. Kellam has been responsive to every question, large or small, and always made me feel like I was his most important client. His can-do attitude made me feel that we could always find a solution no matter how big the problem. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kellam to anyone who needed legal services.”

Kim C., Manassas

Allison Anders gave me outstanding counsel and representation.

More +

I was at a very difficult juncture in my life and she and her team gave me the best possible outcome I could have hoped for, in a very personally difficult and dire situation. After my experience with her and the team at Parks Ziegler, I know where to turn with legal problems in the future without any hesitation! The BEST!

Despite multiple road blocks, Ms. Wood handled my divorce proceedings with professionalism and compassion. I’m incredibly grateful to her and highly recommend her.

Outstanding job! My Attorney Jason Barlow was extremely insightful and knowledgeable.

More +

Also very patient with all my questions, and took the time to answer them in full detail. In court he was on top of his game no hesitation no pauses. His Paralegal Christina Whitmore did a great job of updating me, and communication was also amazing between the emails and phone calls. I highly recommend him!

Great attorney to have on your side. Mr. Shilling is always available to you.

More +

I worked night shifts and he would respond to emails in the middle of the night, that I never expected him to do. On top of that he does not charge you for those responses! I was not in a good position financially and was excellent at keeping my cost as low as he could! I was a train wreck and he was very calm and tolerant. I had a long drawn out case and my ex went through 3 attorneys and went broke, I could not have made it without his compassion and knowledge. Highly recommend him!

Mr. Booth is quickly able to reference and apply the law as it relates to your situation, and he explains the law with ability.

More +

An extremely knowledgeable attorney. His manner is both approachable and confident. You feel as if you are truly being represented.

Parks Zeigler was there for me at one of the lowest times of my life.
I wouldn’t be where I am today without their help!

Without hesitation, I write this recommendation for Brandon Zeigler.

More +

As a practicing CPA in Virginia Beach for nearly 20 years, I have known and worked with Brandon for at least 15 of those years. I have referred him many clients and they have all been impressed with his work ethic and legal chops. I have used him both personally and professionally for many years and I have been in a court room with him on multiple occasions. Brandon is hard working, ethical, knowledgeable, with no fear of confrontation. Should you ever have to go to court, as I have said many times, you certainly want Brandon on your side of the aisle. Moreover, heaven help you if he’s standing on the opposite side of courtroom.

Kellam’s preparation has been the key to never losing the numerous cases I’ve had with him.

More +

“I first used Kellam as my attorney approximately 15 years ago and he has provided me legal counsel ever since. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for legal representation to get the kind of honest integrity that the law affords. Kellam’s preparation has been the key to never losing the numerous cases I’ve had with him. He is thorough, meticulous, and a straight shooter. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal services.”

Craig F., Virginia Beach

As I found myself in a nasty custody battle, I went and spoke to a few different attorneys, once I met Allison and she took the time to get to know me and my concerns, I knew I had found someone who would help me and be there every step of the way.

More +

She was so patient with me as I was having a very difficult time and was quite needy of her reassurance. She was honest and told me when my demands were fair or unreasonable and made me see what was important, that being my daughter. I learned from her to put the anger for my ex aside and focus on what was best for my daughter. Allison was always prompt when responding to me and made me feel that I had someone who cared every step of the way. While I pray I never have to go through another custody battle, if I did, I would certainly call Allison again to have her by my side. She really helped me to see what was important and what simply wasn’t worth a fight. She helped me to remain a mature adult rather than to act in rash haste! Thank you, Allison!!!!

Shelly Wood was both personal and professional as I needed legal counsel.

More +

I have always been able to count on her for legal advice as I was transitioning through divorce, battling custody and child support. She knew the best ways to handle the situation and always kept me informed of what I should be doing during the process and after. She is trustworthy, respected in the community and someone I call a friend. More importantly, the outcome of my issues all ended in my favor, just as she reassured me they would turn out.

I am so thankful for being referred to Mr. Shilling as my divorce attorney. He has really gone above and beyond to help me and advise me through the toughest time of my life.

More +

Sometimes you just need someone to show you the right way to go and he did that with such knowledge and compassion. I trusted him and he never let me down. I always felt like I was in good hands, in almost a fatherly way, that helped me feel secure and strong to keep going, no matter what the situation was. He and his partner, Ms. Pass work together as an awesome team as well. This was such a stressful time for me and I know I probably wasn’t always making good decisions, but he always grounded me and was always right on target with his advice. This is a firm that is really and truly “there for you”, night, day and even weekends sometimes. I feel that I actually went through one of the toughest divorces, where everything imaginable was thrown at me. I actually cannot even put in words how thankful I am to have one of the greatest law firms’ in Chesapeake representing me. I also know another thing for sure, and that is I would HATE to be the person or firm on the other side of Mr. Shilling and Ms. Pass’ in a case.

As the client of Mr. Booth, I can say that he went above and beyond for me and my case.

More +

Even though I was the victim of my case, I was still unsure of the outcome and extremely nervous of what will become of it. The biggest thing I appreciated from him was his communication and preparation for my case. He would call or email me to inform me of any new/ crucial information in regards to my case, which helped immensely for the actual case. Everything from trial preparation to case payment went smoothly- beyond smoothly. I could not be more thankful for his assistance and highly recommend him!

Responsive, concerned about real outcomes, this firm is my first and only choice, anytime I need an Attorney.

Thank you, Brandon, for all you have done. I’m forever in your debt.

More +

For those going through a divorce, things can be very scary and feelings of loneliness can turn fast into hopelessness. As I transitioned from a 18 year marriage, I wanted the best divorce attorney to meet any needs throughout the process. When I was first told about Brandon Zeigler, “The Bulldog” in the court room, I knew I needed to meet him. While I’ll agree Brandon’s nickname does meet the actions seen in court, he also shows feelings of humility and compassion for his clients. His firm is very thorough and organized to handle any case presented and knowledgeable to win any case regardless of fault. As a client, I’m extreme pleased with the outcome of my case and recommend Brandon’s services to anyone.

Kellam’s preparation has been the key to never losing the numerous cases I’ve had with him.

Craig F., Virginia Beach

Allison Anders is an amazing lawyer, she is very personable and very understanding.

More +

Being so young at the time and going through the most difficult time in my life, I needed more than just a lawyer, I needed someone to really listen and care about my situation and she did just that. Allison is exceptional at managing relationships as client / lawyer, and also understanding my situation as delicate as it was. As far as professionalism, she is the best, without question. She made everything so easy for me to understand, always made sure I understood why certain things were happening, and what we could do to rectify even the most difficult of issues. She always had my best interest at heart and wouldn’t do anything without me feeling comfortable about it first. If you are looking for a lawyer my recommendation would be her. This firm is also very friendly, even lawyers with whom I was not using were very reliable and respectful towards me. Thank you all very much, especially to Allison!

I hired Shelly Wood for multiple cases, mainly for custody/visitation. I had been told that she was tough, firm and knew her stuff.

More +

I had different cases going on at the same time so that was a lot for me and was stressful. Mrs. Wood always could bring me back around when I was flustered and keep me focused. With phone calls, emails, and visits to the office, and there were lots (needed by me). She was always available. One great example is, I really wanted to talk to her and I knew she was on vacation (i think she was even out of the country) so I just emailed her so she would have it when she got back. Shortly thereafter she was contacting me back and handling issues and sending emails to take care of issues that were happening. She didn’t have to do that so I was grateful to have an attorney who was committed to me. Multiple cases were won whether for custody or the way visitation needed to go for my grandchildren, which was the ultimate goal. I’m thankful to her and her staff.

I would and will ALWAYS use and recommend Barlow!

More +

I hired Barlow several years ago. Unfortunately, it was at a time when my case was looking so glim! I was so afraid. I wouldn’t step on grass or smell fresh air for a while!! Barlow was phenomenal!! I was out enjoying fresh air and beginning to move forward in my life!! He is a man of his word!! He says what he means and does what he says!! As far as I am concerned there is no one better for the job!! Especially when your freedom is on the line.

Thank you Mr. Shilling!

More +

I have dealt with Mr. Shilling for a few matters now. He is the best in my eyes around the Hampton Roads area. He is very professional and helped me with everything I asked. I will use him for any case I may have from this point on.

Attorney Edwin Booth and his paralegal Elizabeth Clark were outstanding from start to finish on my son Austin’s accident case.

More +

They were both very helpful throughout the case from answering phone calls to the numerous emails my son and I sent to them. I would highly recommend Attorney Booth to my friends and anyone else, and again they were both professional and encouraging throughout the process.

I highly recommend this law firm!

More +

Clear and concise communication coupled with competence. I always knew what my options were, and what to expect next. The entire team is friendly.

Brandon and his staff are second to none!

More +

Phenomenal law firm! One stop shop with your law needs.

Kellam gained our respect and complete trust and continues to counsel us with any legal matters that we need today.

More +

“Having never needed to turn to a lawyer for legal services before, my husband and I were lucky enough to find Kellam! He never tired in answering our questions, was more knowledgeable than our case required, and gave us an honest assessment of said case. Superior in the courtroom, Mr. Parks was well prepared representing us there. He then continued to impress us with his personal commitment to us after our case in court was concluded. He gained our respect and complete trust and continues to counsel us with any legal matters that we need today. His professionalism, integrity, enthusiasm, strategic thinking, and responsiveness are what have impressed us the most. We highly recommend Kellam to anyone needing legal services.”

Steve and Laurie W., Chesapeake

I highly recommend Allison W. Anders, Esq. and her team at Parks Zeigler, PLLC.

More +

I was in need of assistance in filing for divorce. Working with Allison, Kelly, and Deborah made the process worthwhile. Allison’s legal council is unmatched and her representation was one of the best decisions I have made. Her professionalism, knowledge, and effective communication made the process exemplary. Allison and her team responded quickly to my messages and kept me up to date during the entirety of the process — twice. Allison is punctual, organized, and always on time. After the divorce finalization and assuming legalities were in the past, the ex decided to take me to court. I was comfortable in knowing I can count on Allison again. I was right, the judge ruled in my favor. I’m so glad I called on Allison and would do it again if needed. Thank you Allison and the team at Parks Zeigler, PLLC for your assistance.

If you’re looking for an Attorney in Chesapeake… you can’t go wrong with Barlow.

More +

He was recommended to us, and can I tell you how grateful I am he was. He is so aggressive in court. Gets to know his clients. He was also very considerate. He fights to win.

After researching attorneys in my area for what I needed, Mr. Shilling stood out the most.

More +

He has always been extremely helpful, has answered all my questions at random times of the day and night, calmed me down when things were rough, and lead me in the right direction with my case. He knows exactly what he is doing and helped my case turn out better than I had anticipated. I felt like he truly wanted to help me and worked hard to do so.

Thank you again Mr. Booth.

More +

Mr. Booth and his assistant remained in contact throughout the process (two years) and when we finally got our day in court he was very effective. His joy in his profession is clearly evident as soon as you meet him.

Could not be happier with the service provided.

More +

They were organized and did a great job at taking the time to explain the whole process.

Mr. Zeigler is an excellent attorney who has provided invaluable assistance with a possible defamation lawsuit that I may be pursuing. I highly recommend him and his firm.

Kellam takes a great level of ownership and accountability for your work

More +

“In the years that you have been my lawyer it has been an outstanding pleasure. You have helped me with various law issues and each one has been different. As my lawyer you have always provided me with all options and needs to successfully accomplish my objectives, tailoring every detail as your client. With each case you have worked on for me they have all been done in a timely fashion. Your work ethic is above and beyond what is necessary – you always aim for (and hit) the top. Your communication skills make me as a client feel like part your law team. You take a great level of ownership and accountability for your work. Your professionalism and personality has made me feel at ease for each of the cases that you’ve worked on for me. I know when I put my cases in your hands that they will be handled with the utmost care. It has been an rewarding experience to watch you take care of my case needs. Rarely in life do you find a lawyer that takes the time with his clients like you do! Thank you so much.”

Demara W., Virginia Beach

I cannot say enough good things about this attorney. Allison was listed as one of the up-and-coming or superlawyers so I thought I would do a one hour consultation.

More +

My ex-wife took the kids one day while I was at work and moved them four hours away. Allison not only won me temporary custody she also achieved full custody. A few years later I made a stupid decision and tried to be the nice husband and let my ex-wife have them temporarily… against Allison’s recommendation. They ended up deceiving me and keeping the children and never intended to return them. I went back to court and Allison WON again. It is clear she is impressive in the courtroom and has the respect of her peers and the judges. She will always have you act in an ethical manner and always do the right thing. In this often difficult and ugly world of divorce she leaves a positive mark. I have recommended her to so many friends and now my girlfriend is using her.

Mrs. Wood is an amazing attorney whose passion for the law drives her.

More +

She represents her clients to the utmost and never backs down. I have recommended Mrs. Wood to other friends and family whom are in need of a family law attorney. I found her very easy to relate to and very pleased with the resolution in my case.

Working with Ms. West and the whole team at Parks Zeigler made the process so pleasant and easy.

More +

Thinking about wills and final documents is never a fun thing but definitely necessary. Would HIGHLY recommend this office for any needs you have. Everyone we came in contact with was extremely helpful and made sure all of our documents were prepped and completed just how we needed them.

Mr. Shilling represented me in one of the most challenging divorce cases ever.

More +

He was very professional, quick with communications, understanding to my specific needs, and available to meet when needed. He set my mind at ease at the most stressful times gave clarity when needed. He is a professional who really fights for you! Not only have I used him but also my son and a friend. I will continue to recommend Mr. Shilling to anyone needing a top quality, hardworking lawyer.

I wish I had more hands so that I could give Edwin Stuart Booth 4 thumbs up! This gentlemen is simply amazing.

More +

Full disclosure due to the nature of my case I did not need Ed’s services however based on the consultation I received I was super impressed. I will be the first to admit that I am not fond of lawyers but Ed Booth is the man. His knowledge and compassion is fantastic. With these amazing attributes, he somehow still manages to mix in telling you what you need to hear and not necessarily what you want to hear. I walked away feeling like he actually cared for me and wanted to make sure the job was done right.

I recommend Ed and his firm to anyone that needs a lawyer. It turns out I did not have a case and he still treated me like a VIP. I can only imagine the hard work and sacrifice he puts forth for those that actually need his help.

I hope I will never need a lawyer in the future. But if I do I know exactly who I am going to call.

This entire firm is a perfect representation of the role of legal counsel. I would recommend them to friends and family without hesitation.

More +

I was referred to Parks Zeigler PLLC when I moved to the area. I needed legal counsel for family law matters pertaining to custody and child support after divorce that was finalized in another state. I’ve had the chance to work with various people within the office, and I have never been disappointed.

They are incredibly knowledgeable, but I am most impressed with their communication, candor, professionalism, and integrity. The integration of technology within their practice makes a significant impact on the client experience. The firm’s professionalism is perfectly balanced with a personable and amicable approach which was critical in easing my nerves, and it made me feel like a person and not a case. Lia’s response time is impeccable. I never have to wait for a response, and her communication never leaves me wondering about where I stand.

Mr. Parks is the best, bar none. His integrity and authenticity is priceless, especially when navigating matters of the law.

Brandon is an amazing lawyer.

More +

Brandon represented me for my annulment. Although this was something new to Brandon and law firm, they did their research and went above and beyond. I would recommend Brandon to anyone! He will make sure ever t is crossed and every i is dotted!

Kellam’s advice and counsel is insightful and reliable.

More +

“Kellam is easy to talk to, thoughtful in his response, and easy to get in touch with. His advice and counsel is insightful and reliable. I would, and have, recommended him to my friends and family! He’s taken care of them all with equal professionalism and expertise.”

Jeff H., Chesapeake

I will always be grateful to Allison for being my “Knight in Shining Armor”.

More +

Working with Allison and Kelly gave me the best outcome I could have received in my case.

While it was heart breaking at times, not due to anything they did. Every step of the way during my case, they were by my side. Allison was reassuring while also being realistic. She did not get my hopes up over things she couldn’t accurately predict. Leading up to the courtroom “battle” I considered her reliable, steady, and knowledgeable. When I saw her in action, she became my hero. She advocated for me, and more importantly, my daughter.

She won my case not by badmouthing the opposing party, but with facts that outlined why he should not win. We walked away with our honor intact.

Shelly is Excellent! If I Could give her 6 stars I would.

More +

I’d rather have her represent me than have to go up against her. She did an outstanding job representing me in a custody case. She was on top of everything.

I was blessed to have Mr. Shilling walk with me through the process of my high conflict divorce.

More +

He was able to make sense of the chaos. His counsel helped me understand the importance of cutting through the emotional turmoil and focus on the facts. He was able to get the results he promised on day 1 of a 3-year process.

I highly recommend Parks Zeigler, PLLC.

More +

After another incompetent lawyer failed to resolve my situation, I turned to Mr. Kellam Parks and received nothing less than professionalism. From the beginning to the end, Kellam Park and his office were supportive and with me every step of the way. They placed stability back into my life and I am forever grateful.

Mr. Zeigler is the attorney you seek, to have at your side in and outside of the courtroom.

More +

Mr. Zeigler has been my personal attorney for over a year, and is currently working a case for me, I have found Mr. Zeigler to have high work ethics and extreme professionalism. He sets his standards to win, and at the same time keeps one grounded. He has handled my divorce and various business matters. I have and will continue to recommend him to all my friends and family.

Kellam has been an incredible guide through a very difficult divorce.

More +

“After faltering on my own and dealing with another attorney that provided little guidance and did not appear to care about my needs, I found Kellam.

Kellam has been an incredible guide through a very difficult divorce. He didn’t fill me with a load of legal mumbo jumbo, Kellam made sure to break everything down into layman’s terms to where an average guy like me could understand. In addition to legal guidance, Kellam continuously encouraged me and helped keep my spirits up. At times Kellam could sense my frustration and would quickly decipher what was going on with whatever we were dealing with at that moment and explain clearly what to do and how to deal with it. Kellam was honest at all times and openly explained what to expect and what not to get my hopes up for. This allowed me to be ready to face any high or low points head on without being overwhelmed.

I am extremely and truly grateful for all that Kellam has done for me.”

DeWayne D., Norfolk.

Allison Anders and the entire team at Parks Zeigler are outstanding!

More +

I found them to be professional, thorough and courteous. They do everything they can to put your mind at ease and manage your legal needs for the best possible outcome. Highly recommended!

I would highly recommend Mrs. Shelly Wood for counsel and representation. If I had started this process with Mrs. Wood from the beginning, then I could have avoided several years of financial and emotional turmoil and my kids would have found stability much sooner.

More +

After completing my final overseas assignment and nearing retirement from the Navy, my marriage was in decline and had passed the point of no return, even after multiple sessions of family counseling.

I had gone through two previous lawyers and the futility of mediation; not yet having retired, my active duty status was constantly used against me throughout the entire process. I was left with almost no visitation with my three children, and nearly no prospect of increasing visitation after the final decree was entered. When I finally got back on my feet after the financial ruin of the divorce process, I was able to move back to the school districts of the marital home, and was in a better position to support the kids’ school routine. I knew the process of changing custody/visitation would not be easy, and from experience with the previous lawyers, that if I didn’t find good representation that I would be throwing away a lot of money for absolutely nothing.

I asked all the people that I knew that had lived in the HR area for decades, and Parks Zeigler was the name most repeated. At the consultation with the firm, I was recommended to Shelly because the case would be heard in Chesapeake and her office is conveniently located across from the courthouse which exponentially adds to efficiency and reduces fees.

Shelly was professional and direct; she questioned my motives by challenging me in the same manner that opposing counsel repeatedly did. This both ensured that she was arguing my personal interests, but also prepared me for the inevitable speaking rolls that lay ahead in courtrooms that can make or break the entire case. The custody case, due to retaliatory efforts by the opposition, led to several other cases.

Mrs. Wood handled each of these flawlessly. She didn’t sugar coat anything and never gave false promises. If she felt that pursuing a particular avenue would be more costly than its return, she made that clear from the beginning. I have since had property returned that was previously withheld, equal legal and physical custody of my children, and appropriately adjusted child support: which equals quality time with my children and the ability to provide for them.

Mr. Andrew Shilling offers superior client service at its best!

More +

This review comes with the utmost sincerity. Mr. Andrew Shilling helped guide me through the nerve-wracking and heart wrenching process of child custody.

From the very beginning Mr. Shilling made me feel he was interested in the best possible outcome for the child involved. I especially appreciate all of the time spent to ensure that I had a good working knowledge of the the custody process during each phase of the hearings. Mr. Shilling’s approach made me feel grounded and supported with my decision making process. I was not only fortunate to have his expertise, but innate logic as well.

Mr. Andrew Shilling approached each conversation with one goal in mind, the best possible outcome for our family and the child involved. He is a duel state Attorney in Virginia and North Carolina, who was accessible and approachable.

The professional council given by Mr. Shilling was truly superior legal advice and his amiable disposition allowed a feeling of ease in relaying very sensitive personal subject matter. He offers superior client service at its best!

Mr. Andrew Shilling’s integrity and ethical commitment to the child involved was truly admirable. I am grateful that he is committed to his profession beyond the conventional and was able to advise an me with objectivity and compassion.

This firm cares about the individual.

More +

Mr. Parks goes out of his way to not only help, but to inform clients and public. These are the guys to trust with your case.

I HIGHLY recommend Brandon.

More +

Anyone who’s been engulfed in a child custody litigation scenario knows and understands the emotional struggles that come along with it. Not only did I experience this, but my situation went on all the way through the Court of Appeals. I found myself in front of multiple judges in multiple court rooms facing everything from contempt of court charges to jail time.

Sitting next to Brandon during these hearings/trials gave me the ability to get through them. I would not have handled these hearings very well otherwise. I say this because Brandon knows the law. He knows it backwards, forward and upside down and it’s apparent that the judges know and respect this. Brandon will not coddle you. He has a tough exterior, but inside the courtroom his tough turns to unstoppable. He will use the law, every single letter of it, to right the wrongs.

Kellam has always demonstrated a unique ability to deliver professional expertise.

“Kellam has always demonstrated a unique ability to deliver professional expertise with a personal touch. His service to myself and my family has been invaluable over the years. As a result, he is, and will remain, an attorney we can trust and use for any legal services we may have.”

Allison was great and helped me through the most difficult thing I have been through in my life.

More +

I have recommended her to others I know in similar situations and will not hesitate to call if I need her again. Thank you taking a little bit of stress out of a very stressful and life changing situation.

I was referred to Mrs. Wood by another lawyer, who practiced the very same area of Law as Mrs. Wood. It was the best referral and the best decision I could’ve made in choosing a lawyer.

More +

She was extremely thorough and dedicated to my case. In addition, she was very responsive with answering all questions presented and addressing any concerns I had. Also, she kept me informed regarding all aspects of my case. She’s a true pleasure to have as representation.

I highly recommend Andy Shilling as your lawyer! He has been extremely reliable and trustworthy for our family!!

More +

Mr. Shilling prepared Trusts for myself and my husband and for my father, who was very ill at the time with a terminal illness.

Mr. Shilling was wonderful with my dad who was on continuous oxygen and walking with difficulty at the time. He was very patient and explained everything thoroughly which gave my father the peace of mind he was seeking regarding his final affairs. After my father passed away, I contacted Mr. Shilling for guidance and he always responded back to me quickly. Even if it was after regular business hours.

Mr. Shilling also prepared a Trust for my husband and I, and we also very much appreciated his expertise and thoroughness in our trust preparations.

He patiently responded to all of my concerns and worked out a agreement that I am very satisfied with.

Ed Booth was great with my case.

More +

He kept me informed every step of the way and didn’t back down when it came to defending me. Ed also did not proceed with anything if I Wasn’t 100% ok with what action he was going to take next. I have recommend Ed in the past and will do it again when necessary in the future.

I would literally give them ten stars if it was possible to do such a thing!

More +

Absolutely the BEST all-around attorneys I’ve dealt with in VA.Beach! Granted, I’ve never had to hire an attorney very much in life, but my family has very recently used them for two different cases, and it’s been an absolutely wonderful, caring, and productive firm. From the receptionist at the front to the Attorneys, you won’t find any nicer people.

More +

“Over the course of the last 14 years I have used four different attorneys for the various issues that have arisen regarding custody of my child. Throughout my cases I was left wondering what my counsel was really doing. My attorneys were hard to get in touch with and I never really heard from them until a couple of days before the case went to court. I felt completely in the dark. With Kellam, things were different from the start. He was very honest with his assessment of our case. Time was of the essence in my case and he hit the ground running. I had access to all the documents he had in my file through his internet-based case management system. I got the updates for our case as soon as he got them and I knew every step of the way how things were going. If I needed to ask a question, I got a quick response to my e-mails. With his diligence things happened quickly for us and we are in a good place right now. This was a very sensitive time for my family and I truly felt through it all I had someone in my corner.”

We kept in contact throughout my process and she helped get a good solution to our case. They will be who I call every time. Keep up the good work.

Shelly Wood was my lawyer for my divorce case and she was a complete blessing! Shelly and Mellisa Chambers handled my custody case and divorce proceedings flawlessly.

More +

I was updated and informed about every aspect, and Shelly did not leave one stone unturned. Shelly’s counsel and expertise are unmatched and she handled my emotional responses of the case and kept me squared in and focused.

I really feel that Shelly and her team are the difference and have ensured me and my children are set on the right path for a healthy life. I do feel that I would have not had the voice I had in the courtroom as a single full active duty father of three. I was able to be awarded full custody and not be bullied into giving my life and career away.

I am truly amazed and thankful for their services to me. Thank You!

I felt confident that Mr. Booth was putting my interest first and was satisfied with the final result.

More +

I engaged Mr. Booth regarding a slip and fall accident. Mr. Booth thoroughly explained the law as it relates to slip and fall cases and the potential outcome.

I was represented by Mr. Shilling in a divorce case, and while we often had to read through the lines of a more emotional storyline coming through my ex-wife’s lawyer’s communications – Andrew always did a good job of separating what mattered legally and what didn’t – helping keep the whole process as drama-free as possible. His steady and encouraging hand helped me reach a fair agreement that I can happily live with.

It is frightening that I almost did not hire Ed Booth.

More +

I was involved in a hit and run motorcycle accident and was not sure if i wanted to hire a lawyer or not. Edwin was very prompt with keeping me up to date with what was happening with my case and answered all of my questions. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case.

I was amazed at how efficient, timely, and knowledgeable Kellam Parks and his staff were.

More +

I thought I could handle my uncontested divorce without an attorney and at the very last minute I realized I could not. I was worried that after all the time and effort I put into it myself that an attorney would turn around and charge me a ton of money and make me start all over.

This was NOT the case with Kellam Parks. He came highly recommended from a family member of mine. I sent over all of my information to him and within HOURS got a response. My divorce was final within less than 3 weeks. For such a small case, they really took the time to communicate information to me that they thought was in my best interest to know regarding my divorce. He quickly found room in my documents for improving my overall situation and offered no-pressure solutions and options to me that I would never have thought of.

I was so impressed by his firm’s communication with me and the speed and efficiency with which they handled my case (not to mention the low cost of services) that I have been recommending him to everyone I know. It’s just really awesome to find a lawyer I will use and trust for life after just seeing him handle one transaction for me.

Shelly Wood undoubtedly has the well-being of all her clients at heart. I personally found her to be caring, compassionate and a huge advocate for me in and outside the courtroom.

More +

As a victim of domestic violence, I chose Shelly Wood to represent me for my difficult child custody case again my abuser.

She took the time to walk me through every process from obtaining a protective order to litigating my custody case and helping me get my desired outcome. She went above and beyond her job when she took the time to not just take care of the details of my case, but also helped me build the confidence I needed to get through this extremely difficult time in my life and face my abuser in court.

While she tries to keep cases from having to go through the process of a trial where outcomes can vary, she is a true champion for her clients every step of the way.

Not only was all of my legal advice handled, but the staff is friendly and extremely efficient!

One thing for sure if you or anyone you know is looking for a lawyer Kellam Parks is who you should talk to first.

I’m not a client, but I am a fellow lawyer, and I know Kellam Parks because we both are totally committed to improving the practice of law by serving clients better, and seek out like-minded lawyers to help do that.

Kellam has a computerized system for just about everything, so that they can do everything in the right time, in the right way, which helps them get the right outcomes for each client.

I don’t know how I could have made it through the journey I took without Kellam Parks representation, guidance and professionalism. I can say without a doubt if I should need legal representation again, Kellam will be my go to guy!

She is very professional, as is her staff. Everything was over in an extremely timely manner. As pain-free as divorce can be!

Effortless Personal Injury Settlement

More +

I was injured in a motorcycle accident that required surgery and several months of rehabilitation. The initial consultation with Shapiro, Appleton, & Duffan was very efficient and they handled everything from start to finish.

The process was very time consuming but nothing out of the ordinary as far as personal injury settlements are concerned, from what I understand.

It also appeared at first that the settlement amount would be very disappointing due to the at-fault driver’s limited insurance, but Ed Booth successfully negotiated the substantial medical liens down to practically zero, which allowed to me to retain the bulk of the available coverage.

This was a very sensitive time for my family and I truly felt through it all I had someone in my corner.

More +

Over the course of the last 14 years I have used four different attorneys for the various issues that have arisen regarding custody of my child.

Throughout my cases I was left wondering what my counsel was really doing. My attorneys were hard to get in touch with and I never really heard from them until a couple of days before the case went to court. I felt completely in the dark.

With Kellam, things were different from the start. He was very honest with his assessment of our case. Time was of the essence in my case and he hit the ground running. I had access to all the documents he had in my file through his internet-based case management system. I got the updates for our case as soon as he got them and I knew every step of the way how things were going. If I needed to ask a question, I got a quick response to my e-mails.

With his diligence things happened quickly for us and we are in a good place right now.

Kellam worked on my child custody case which spanned multiple years.

More +

He was always prepared, knew many of the judges already, and helped keep my expectations aligned with reality during the process. He also leverages technology to minimize your bill and offer you convenience.

Excellent attorney with big heart.

More +

Successful each time she has worked on our behalf. Shelly is an excellent Attorney who has represented my Son and myself on three different occasions and has been successful each time, we needed help with child custody and visitation . We are very pleased with her services she was referred to us by a family member that so happens to be an attorney himself.

Kellam and Lia were a great legal team to have on my side. Highly recommend.

Mr. Booth was very on point with making sure he got me the max amount he could.

More +

I was hit by an older woman who ran the stop sign. Mr.Booth is not like other Lawyer’s when you speak with him. He is very friendly and understanding of your situation. He even negotiated my medical bills to a lower amount. I was very happy with my end amount. I am a single mother of two children and the money is a great help after my accident.

Thank you for a job well done!

After a nearly 2-year long custody battle, Mrs. Wood recently helped me gain custody my two children.

My wife was charged with Reckless driving, resulting from a motor vehicle accident. While searching for an attorney, I ran across Jason Barlow and reached out.

I have used Mr. Shilling a number of times for various areas of law. He has represented me and my family with nothing but the best of legal knowledge and priority.

Mr. Booth is simply the best attorney I could have hired.

If you find yourself in need of legal representation, this is definitely the best firm in the area by far!

Mr. Zeigler has been my personal attorney for years. He has handled my divorce and various business matters.

I have also referred Kellam to friends and clients of mine and will continue to do so

I learned from her to put the anger for my ex aside and focus on what was best for my daughter.

I will always go to Shelly!

This is the most professional and direct law firms I’ve ever seen in my entire life. Mr. Barlow is a wonderful attorney he is a man of his word and everything that he stated to me as well as my son happened just like he said.

Mr. Shilling is the most professional, sincerely passionate and driven counselor I have had the pleasure of seeking guidance and qualified counsel.

I have been represented by Mr. Booth once and have just retained him for a second time for a personal injury case.

Everyone at this law firm is amazing.

There is nothing that I can say that would do the representation I received from Mr. Zeigler and his firm justice.

I couldn’t be more pleased with the services provided to me by Mr. Parks.

5 Stars Allison and the staff at Parks Ziegler are wonderful!

Shelly has been a great help and support for me while I have been going through my custody case.

Mr. Barlow handled my case well.

I have retained Mr. Shilling twice over the past ten years. In both cases he provided excellent legal service.

Mr. Booth truly cares about his clients. He is a great personal injury lawyer in the Virginia Beach area! Call him with all of your questions.

Everyone I worked with was able to make this process easy and less stressful for me.

Brandon is the real deal!

Richard offers his testimonial about his experience with Kellam T. Parks

I was forced into a grandparent visitation case last year. I was a complete wreck and Allison at Park Ziegler took on the case.

I strongly recommend Shelly Wood!

Jason Barlow is a straight shooter and was an absolute sniper in the courtroom!!!

Mr. Shilling has handled our family legal matters for the past 8-9 years and we have been very pleased with his services.

Highly recommend Edwin for your personal injury matters.

Very professional and to the point.

Phenomenal experience! Consultation was initially with Brandon and then Allison was designated primary.

Kellam has been invaluable in addressing my legal issues

Allison Anders gave me outstanding counsel and representation.

Despite multiple road blocks, Ms. Wood handled my divorce proceedings with professionalism and compassion. I’m incredibly grateful to her and highly recommend her.

Outstanding job! My Attorney Jason Barlow was extremely insightful and knowledgeable.

Great attorney to have on your side. Mr. Shilling is always available to you.

Mr. Booth is quickly able to reference and apply the law as it relates to your situation, and he explains the law with ability.

Parks Zeigler was there for me at one of the lowest times of my life. I wouldn’t be where I am today without their help!

Without hesitation, I write this recommendation for Brandon Zeigler.

Kellam’s preparation has been the key to never losing the numerous cases I’ve had with him.

Awesome attorney!
