David Roop came highly recommended as an attorney who works to negotiate different options with his clients. David is a brilliant level-headed attorney who is not going to bully or create additional drama to prolong the process. nn David is thorough with his attention to detail, he has knowledge of the current case law, a photographic memory and most importantly he thinks out of the box to resolve disputes.

They are all you need for the best representation in these difficult family disputes.

My divorce was very challenging. My ex had far-fetched expectations for which she would stop at nothing to attain. David Roop represented me from the start of my unfortunate long and drawn out divorce process. 10 years later, I am still able to rely on Dave and his staff for clarification of various child support issues. While my nightmare ex went through three different lawyers who pulled out every startling accusation, trick and mind game in the book, Dave kept me grounded and calm. Divorce can eat someone up inside and David and his staff, especially Michelle, always calmed me down and gave me the right advice. They shared their personal experience and how one needs to think to get to the other side. n He and his staff have a unique ability to embrace, embolden and keep you on the high moral ground. He was compassionate and caring for both sides and especially for my children. He looked far down the road, saved my company, cut a fair deal and that is exactly what I wanted. I am a financial professional and understand finances. He gave me realistic expectations about the asset split and support levels. He and his staff were instantly available, billed fairly and are by far one of the best, moralistic, and ethical divorce lawyers in the Washington DC area.

David Roop is excellent! He is smart, kind, principled, and perhaps most importantly, an attorney who genuinely cares about the people he represents. He is a true professional who has the unique ability to see the big picture, but at the same time, focus like a laser beam on the smallest details. Divorce can obviously be a difficult process to go through, but from the moment you walk into his office, you are immediately put at ease. Everyone on staff is so kind and helpful, and David's calming demeanor and strong command of the law instantly makes you feel like everything is going to be okay. I truly believe that what makes David Roop such an outstanding and well-respected attorney, is the fact that he is such a kind, caring and compassionate human being.

I worked exclusively with Alex Xanttopoulos in this firm. Before him, I retained 7 other attorneys, and interviewed dozens more. He is as close as an attorney gets to "really care for you and your family", being upfront, about disclosing likelihood of outcomes, and cost estimates, and worthiness of a particular legal path chosen. There has been many times, where I got fired up and wanted to take a legal action, which would be in firm's financial interest, but Alex calmed me down, keeping my children's interest at heart. Among mostly corrupt legal system, where attorneys are incentivized to create work for themselves by increasing conflict between ex's, hard to find an attorney like him. Coming from someone who sued one of his attorneys for malpractice and fraud, Alex is a gem hard to find.
