Gates Law Offices, PLLC

I don’t have enough words to thank Scottie for helping me with my bankruptcy. I took FOREVER to get my paperwork together and she has been very patient through the entire process. I ask a million questions and she always took the time to walk me through everything. 5 stars for sure !! Anything I ever need in the legal realm she will be the first person I call !

Helped me with a personal injury case after a car accident. Was very pleased and happy with the settlement Mr. Gates got me.

Extremely professional and friendly staff. No problems in any needs or questions I had. No problem finding the office. Mrs. Hennigan was extremely kind, personable and professional. I enjoyed working with her. Was able to make payments easily on line and in the office. Would definitely recommend !

Working with Mrs. Hennigan at Gates Law as my primary attorney, we had an excellent experience! There was attention to detail, personal attention, and effective results. I really could not have asked for more. We can't expect things to be perfect when we are involved with legal system. When dealing with the courts and other lawyers on our behalf, I know there were factors beyond her control, but Mrs. Hennigan helped the process to feel as under control as possible and remained transparent with every step. Of course, it can always be a messy process, but all in all, I felt that our adoption process was handled with much care and concern.

Very thorough, and patiently answered my questions with our house closing. Awesome experience! They made it quick and efficient.

He. Is the. Best out there I love this guy and his daughter. Thanks to him he is. Grate

Simple and straightforward. Provided ample information and helped us through the process.

Very professional law firm that goes above and beyond for their clients.

Richard Gates is fantastic to work with.

Best lawyer in Va

We really enjoyed working with Mary-Scott (Scottie) as our primary attorney, but all of the office staff is great.

I will say, don’t use him. Extremely rude, arrogant and money hungry.

Took $111 for what he declared would be court costs, was told no paperwork would be drafted until Monday until after substantial amount was paid for retainer ($750).

When I realized I actually no longer needed him, I called back less than an hour later and asked for the court costs back he not only raised his voice at me but was beyond unprofessional. Stick to someone else above.

Currently in the process of filing a bar complaint.

The attorney Mr. Gates was a joke. He wasn’t worth my time or money. He does not work for you. He lied to me and charge me one price then added more charges when he didn’t get the job done. I would recommend him to anyone or his firm. Look for someone else.

Didn't meet until morning of court- he wasn't prepared, he didn't care. Waste of $450 (which was paid almost 2 months beforehand).
I truly would have been 100% better off had I gone to court by myself

Didn't do much to help me with my case after paying thousands of dollars. After receiving my sentence I tried to reach out to Richard Gates and he laughed in my face and told me that he didn't care and said that I was guilty. I would NOT recommend him to anyone.
