Cantrell, Goodge & Associates

My wife’s job was threatened and I was personally threatened to take down the true negative review I left about our experience. Update: we have moved away and I found out that it is illegal to threaten someone over a negative review. So I'm going to put the original review back on here. Emily lost our home for us over a minor eviction notice. We ended up homeless for a month, living in a tent. When I asked Emily why she did what she did against our wishes, she said " I thought it would work". And "what do you expect for free?". We borrowed $5,000 and paid Dale Cantrell for their services and apparently Emily was not paid. So we got what we paid for which was ten days to get out of our house after paying mortgage payments for 4 years on what would have been our retirement home. we ended up in a tent and then a hotel room. When I complained to Dail, he would only speak to me over the phone, would not make an appointment, and when I talked to him on the phone he told me that he hadn't practiced law in 30 years. And"please don't show up in the parking lot in the morning like the others" The others? After posting this the first time, I was immediately threatened by Dale Cantrell himself and my wife was threatened with losing her job from her boss who is another client and friend of Dale Cantrell. I felt that this was so wrong especially for a lawyer that I would put the truth back up here, but my wife got a different job first. Do not trust your money or your property or your freedom to these people. I did and I lost everything.

Emily was fabulous to work with during a trying time. She was supportive, ethical and knowledgeable. We highly recommend her!!!

When my father passed away I was tasked with settling his estate. He lived in Tennessee, but had property in Virginia that was to be divided among several different people. The problem was that my father only had a handwritten will with no notary or other witnesses. I had no idea how to handle this! I called Emily Horton and she handled everything for me! What I thought would be a long process, Emily took care of it in a matter of weeks! Professional and caring legal expert!

Lucas Arnold prepared wills, durable power of attorneys and health care power of attorneys for my husband and I. He was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable in the estate planning process. He made working through this difficult topic much easier.

Dail saved my life from my abuser ex husband in a domestic violence situation. With such compassion for me and my three kids, he zealously defended us. When I couldn't afford the final hearing and I was pretty shaken to go against my ex husband, he didn't charge me and hugged me in the hallway afterwards and told me it is finally over. Go be happy and live your life. My fairytale didn't come true, but I am forever grateful for everyone here. I never had to worry if they were doing their job or micromanage like I have since with others. Thanks for all you do.
