I have been working with Lu from Aloupas Law for about a year now. I was going through a bitter divorce. My ex was trying to halt a child support increase and Lu was able to get my child support increased to over $1,400 a month. Her prices are very reasonable and she will fight for you tooth and nail for everything that you deserve. She is very thorough in how she conducts her business and I am able to reach her via her cell, office or email if needed. I feel accomplished to know that there are good lawyers out here who will treat you well and not as a cash cow! I am very grateful with my results.

Worst lawyer office ever. They never call you back even after multiple phones calls and voicemails. They dont ever even answer their phone. I would never recommend them to anyone! I would give a zero star if it was possible. My mother in law is who unfortunately has her as her lawyer and I help alot with information for my mother in law so communication with her goes through me or her daughter when handling certain things. Just wanted to add this sense she wants to comment about fake persons sense their not directly in her database.

I would highly recommend Lou. She was great to work with. Everything went smooth and quick.

Think about it, before you pay a hefty retainer fee. Not worth it.

Don’t waste your time. Horrible attitude and rips you off

The smartest decision I ever mad when I needed legal representation was hire Carmelou Aloupas. She returned my call in no time at all. When I explained my situation and when I went to her office I she made me feel at ease and not nervous. She keeps in contact with her clients and even called me on Saturday!! Lu is definitely a gem and deserves 10 stars!! The one thing I really appreciated was her honesty because she told me "I do my best, but I don't win all the time." Thank-you for your wonderful help!

I can NOT say enough about Lu’s competency, attentiveness to detail, and success she’s had for the clients I have worked with! She is a bull dog of a lawyer, and always professional and kind. She’s honest and ethical, and makes herself available to my clients and their case. Very affordable and well worth the investment in the outcome. There’s no one I’d rather have on my side than Lu Aloupas, and Aloupas Law! Give her a call and connect today! I did just that, and it’s worked very well as a professional contact for my clients.

As a lawyer, when someone asks me for the name of a great family or criminal law attorney, I always recommend Lu - and everyone has always been very satisfied with her services. She is dedicated to her clients and provides superior service. I will continue to recommend Aloupas Law!!

Thank you so much for helping through my divorce. I felt well taken care of and the process was quick. Thanks Lou

Ms. Aloupas was great to work with! Great results and very reasonable time charging!

She is very good at what she does, she helped to persuade the judge to grant my husband custody of his kids. She has gone above and beyond to ensure the case went smooth. I recommend using her for your future court cases.

These have to be paid reviews because all of this is BS. Aloupas is not what she says she is. She will make everything seem like she has the best interest for you when she really dont.. She has been the worst experience ever!!!! Do not hire her. She will work with the state to prosecute you. She will not fight for you! Aloupas is a liar

Keep looking. You can find better

Don't waste your money!!!!!!!
Do not believe the reviews they are paid reviews
She's the worst VA lawyer I've ever come across!!!

This is the most terrible service I ever received. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone only ppl who wants to lose money

Lu was a pleasure to work with! I have know here for over 6 years and her service was amazing. She helped me when I was in need of a lawyer. I have nothing but great things to say about her. She was professional in court and helped me reduce my reckless driving ticket down to nothing. I was so relieved to have her as my lawyer!

Aloupas law was fantastic! Lu was really great to work with and the price was very affordable! I would definitely recommend here to anyone. I have no complaints whatsoever. She was friendly, reliable, and trustworthy.

You couldn't ask for better representation than Ms. Aloupas. The obvious time and dedication to her clients is unmatched. She is respectful, considerate, and above all she is fair. I thank her a million times over for assisting myself and my family through our legal strife.

Ms. Aloupas handled my divorce and was amazing. Everything went so smoothly - even my friends were amazed that had used other attorneys for their divorce as to how quickly and smoothly my divorce was. Ms. Aloupas was understanding and handled everything in a professional manner, but with an understanding and caring heart. I felt as though she genuinely cared about what I was going through and protected my interests accordingly. She was always available and willing to take the time to explain and render her advice in a fair and reasonable manner. I had no problems at all whatsoever with her representation and I would highly recommend her to anyone. She will always be my first choice if I ever need legal counsel again in the future.

Very Professional and Informative, what she could not answer at that moment she called me back within very few minutes with the information I needed. Assisted me numerous times in different areas of Law, very experienced knowledge and put me at easy over my situations. Recommend Highly her law expertise Thanks

I can’t begin to express what a wonderful experience I had working with Lou Aloupas. She was very professional, thorough, knowledgeable and most of all, very understanding during a very difficult time. I felt like she was very invested in my custody case and had my back (great support system). Lu never told me what I wanted to hear she told me exactly what was right and I always felt like a priority. Lu always took my calls and worked diligently, efficiently and with genuine compassion to resolve my issues. There is no question that Lu had my best intentions in mind. I highly recommend her services….

I am a mother and grandmother who came to Lou on behalf of my son and granddaughter. keep in mind my son is over 18 and she did not have to meet with me. when I walked into her office I was worried of what the future may hold for my family. Lou talked with me for about an hour or so and when I left there my hope was restored and I knew my family was in the right hands. she not only thinks of her clients but their families as well. if you are in need of a great attorney go see Lou. she will take good care of you. She fights for hers clients. God bless you Lou.

Ms. Aloupas is great! She has been representing my family in regard to custody of my grandson and child support issues on several occasions during the past four years.

She is very responsive to our questions and concerns, and always goes out of her way to ensure we understand the issues at hand and what the legal implications of the different courses of action. She has made recommendations based on her considerable experience in family law in Virginia. I trust her judgement and have no doubt that she has our best interest at heart.

Ms. Aloupas has always been well prepared for the multiple court appearances. She has a very professional demeanor and her knowledge of the family court law is evident. She stands her ground and is willing to fight for best outcome for my grandson and our family.

I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer who is trustworthy and they can count on!

Lu is a trustworthy and decent attorney who effectively and efficiently represents her clients.

Scheme artist don't trust her

I wouldn't give her one star. Most unprofessional lawyer I've ever came across. Go to another lawyer. You know how people usually say "Don't trust lawyers" she will give you many many reason to not trust her! You will regret it mark my words

Ms.Lu is awesome. I am a father/Soldier that lives in North Carolina that was enduring alot of resistance from my children's Mother that lives in Virginia regarding Custody/Visitation. I called Lu Aloupas and explained to her everything that was going on and she jumped right on it. We then went to court on the day and she held her ground on what I told her I wanted and now instead of me only getting to see my kids 3 times a year I now get them every other week and more. Her prices are great especially for the great work and professionalism she provides. This woman will fight for you and your rights call her today you will not be disappointed I promise. Thanks again Lu Aloupas !!!

Attorney Aloupas is awesome, amazing, attentitive; she is an A-1 attorney! Stepping in as my attorney for a custody case where the judge had ruled in my favor and now was being appealed, in my opinion was akin to opening a can-of-worms.

My case was bizarre in that one exactly like mine, did not exist. It was amazing how she spent hours upon hours performing research to build a strong defense for my case.

Attorney Aloupas method of billing is very professional and I found the costs to be extremely reasonable. Additionally, during each court proceeding a professional court reporter was retained.

Watching Attorney Aloupas argue my case, questioning the opponents, jotting down notes, and literally shutting them down during cross-examining, was a type of reassurance for me that "all would be well".

At the conclusion, rather than the judge making a ruling, he requested that each counsel provide their "written" aguments. Here again Attorney Aloupas, went beyond the call of duty by putting the many hours of research and aguments into writing. Another amazing task that was well done!

Within weeks Attorney Aloupas firm received a certified letter from the court, signed by the judge - he ruled in my favor - we WON!!!! I highly recommend the Aloupas Law Firm if you are looking for expertise as well as professionalism!

Warmest regards

Lu Aloupas is an extraordinary lawyer.

I had an issue with a neighbor who asked the court to grant a Protective Order against me.

I was innocent, but I did not have the knowledge to fight this on my own.

Based on online reviews, I decided to call The Law Offices 0f Lu Aloupas. This is the best decision I’ve made in a long time.

In our first phone call she patiently listened to my jumbled story (I was nervous) and then advised me what to do immediately. She then asked if I would like to come to her office (she has offices in Hampton and Chesapeake) and because she sounded so knowledgeable (and calm) I agreed.

When I met her in the Hampton office we went through the basics of the case and then she asked if I would like to retain her services. We discussed the price, and I agreed. Here is my opinion about the cost. Of course I think that lawyers make waaaay to much money. But as I found out, if you don’t hire a lawyer, you will be overwhelmed by the system, and by stress. Her prices are fair. There might be a cheaper lawyer, and I know there are more expensive lawyers, but her value in my case totally justified the cost.

My case was heard at the York County Circuit Court. On the date of the court hearing we met before the scheduled time and she explained exactly what would happen. She said “I know you are nervous, but stay as calm as you can.” I thought that’s easy for her to say. She told me to not be surprised if the other party changes his story, it happens all the time. She said not to react to this, that she would handle it. Just listening to her gave me confidence and remarkably, I was less nervous.

From the beginning the outcome never seemed to be in doubt. The other party represented himself (huge mistake) and Lu was like a TV lawyer. You honor “Motion to Separate”, objection your honor “Relevance”, Move to Strike Your Honor “Hearsay”. The Judge sided with Lu every time. The Judge dismissed the request for a protective order against me and restored all my rights. I was like someone lifted a building off my shoulders.

You might have heard the saying that nobody likes lawyers until you need one. I can personally testify that if you are involved in any legal action you need a lawyer.

And if you need a great lawyer, at a fair price, I can, without reservation or hesitation, recommend Ms. Lu Aloupas, Esquire.
