Amole & Bray P.C.

I had the misfortune of being court appointed Mrs. Bray as GAL after my abusive ex husband filed for custody. In speaking with her over the course of a handful of visits I shared with her the abuse that occurred leading up to and throughout our marriage that had landed him in the monitored visitation he currently had. I explained my concerns as to why it was necessary to keep my child safe. Mrs. Bray was provided texts, transcripts of audio recordings, and audio recordings where my ex-husband apologized for multiple instances of physical abuse; including an altercation in which he sent me to the ER while I was seven months pregnant with our child. Mrs. Bray characterized this information in a way that was not only very unsettling to my husband and I, but her clear lack of domestic violence

Excellent GAL who places your child’s interests at the forefront. Mrs. Bray will put your children first even when the other parent may not and is especially helpful in high conflict cases where one parent will do anything to try to get their way including hurting anyone they need to with lies or whatever else.

These other negative reviews regarding Debra Bray sound very similar to my situation with the exception that I was the one accused of alleged abuse by an absentee "mother" who's been out of my daughter's life for over 10 years of their own free will. Debra Bray didn't bother to listen to my side of things, review or examine evidence which I presented her that completely discredits my ex's narratives/claims and Ms. Bray. essentially served as my ex's attorney (rather than my daughter's) trying to push for my ex to have full custody after 10 years of neglect and absenteeism. Debra Bray also seems to have a very obvious aversion to and hatred of my being of the Christian faith; she repeatedly brought up and quoted anything and everything that I said about God/my faith in a derogatory way i

Fantastic honest lawyer and a wonderful person. Well regarded and respected in the Virginia court system. Reading other reviews here it’s unfortunate that when court issues do not go their way that they then attack others publicly especially broadcasting false narratives about cases…If you are lucky enough to have Mrs. Bray on your case just know you will get an honest, accurate take on things from all parties and her heart is always with your child’s best interests. You’re child is in good hands here.

For “more than 30 years, the law firm of Amole & Bray P.C. and its predecessor firm have provided reliable legal service to the people of Northern Virginia”, and here I have the honor of the first Google review… I can speak only to the observed performance of Mrs. Bray while she served as guardian ad litem for my stepdaughter after a motion by her biological father to modify custody/visitation. For whatever reason, Mrs. Bray seemed to take an immediate disliking to my wife (a work from home entrepreneur) and I (an active duty Army Officer). Following our first two engagements with her, my wife and I felt that we were being so mischaracterized we elected to tape-record future exchanges. Thank god we did. Upon receiving Mrs. Bray’s official report, our counsel was able to file a motion to
