Establishing true trust in client/attorney relationships is vital so candid conversations occur and the best legal solutions can be achieved. 

Delivering attentive, personalized representation that clients deserve is the mission of the four lawyers and two legal assistants at Digby Family Law, PLC. From handling uncontested step-parent adoptions to tackling complex family law issues, owner and attorney Sarah Digby says the firm's team provides diversity of experience, strong legal knowledge, and an unyielding drive for success to each case.

Now these professionals are closer than ever for client convenience at their new Brentwood office location:  5123 Virginia Way, Suite C-22. 

“Our focus is on client-centered representation, emphasizing quality over quantity. In this way, we're able to dedicate the time really needed for our cases and go all-in to help and protect every client. Additionally, we build real relationships with our clients, allowing them to feel comfortable telling us about anything," says Sarah.

"Our firm is a no-judgement zone, and we pride ourselves in demonstrating utmost candor with our clients.” 

Sarah says these honest, straightforward working relationships are critical to their team being able to develop the best legal strategies to represent clients. "If we don't know about something, we can't advise on it," she reminds. 

DFL is a full-service family law firm that provides clients with personalized services in the areas of adoption, divorce, child custody, child support, guardianship, grandparent visitation, dependency and neglect actions, orders of protection, basic wills, parentage, pre-nuptial agreements and pet custody agreements.

To ensure clients are fully supported, Sarah says they employ a team-based atmosphere in which all of them are present for the right reasons and dedicated to doing the best they can with their involvements in clients' lives. “We have weekly meetings about all of our cases, ensuring each of our skill sets are used in ways that best help our clients, as well as applying our collective knowledge to generate creative solutions and strategies,” she says.  

Digby's associate lawyers are Lindsey Davis, Jess Morgan and Grace Anderson. 

Sarah says their way of keeping each other in the loop of cases enables them to always have someone who can assist clients, even if a person's principal attorney is in court or unavailable. 

Becoming a DFL client involves an initial interview to explore if there's a good fit with the firm's professionals and vice versa. 

"We take the approach of not causing unnecessary legal conflict in our family law cases because we realize clients often have many years of co-parenting ahead of them. But we also make sure clients are protected during a time that they're making difficult decisions and often feel like they can't protect themselves," says Sarah, who incorporates into her legal analyses her firsthand, relevant experience and considerations from being an empathetic parent of two children.

It's also important to know -- rather than assume -- the dynamics and client priorities of every case, Sarah affirms. "We can be helpful in coaching parents how to talk with their children about the custody process and plans. We all have to step back and consider what's best for the kids involved," she adds. 

Potential clients may request a free initial consultation to discuss specific family law needs, including Zoom-based discussions. “We intentionally decided to move from downtown into Maryland Farms to be more accessible to clients. We're enthused about our new location's privacy, proximity and ample parking," she adds.
