We could not have asked for a better lawyer. Alene helped us navigate a stressful situation with calm confidence, keeping us informed every step of the way. Thanks to her expertise, experience and deftness in the courtroom, she secured a highly favorable outcome on our behalf. Beyond her deep legal skill, she is human and responsive and made the entire experience much easier for our family. I highly recommend Alene to anyone in need of the very best legal representation.

Alene represented me in a child abuse and neglect case with exceptional professionalism and compassion. She took the time to educate me on the legal process, providing clear guidance without any judgment. Her support was invaluable during a difficult time.

ALENE—A “LADY ‘ATTICUS.’”
5.0 stars
Posted by April 6, 2024

It is impossible to BUY an authentic advocate: that caliber of assistance with integrity ensues only from a heart of justice, honor, valor, care for others and a love of their innate human dignity.

Many lawyers are also (mainly) mercenary.
Others are barely competent for the task at hand.

There are attorneys aplenty who are moreover marred by the distortions of character which the gritty work of law-fare can wreak on weak souls.

Not so, with Alene Sprano.

My teenaged son is reading a childhood favorite, right now, in school; To Kill A Mockingbird. One memorable character seared my soul with a sense of justice mingled with mercy at that tender age as well. The honest lawyer and honorable hero in it, “Atticus Finch,” became a legendary icon, etching ever in my mind the look and feel of a righteous attorney, a kind and genuine advocate, navigating complex societal factors, while defending the rights and dignity of humanity, with rare and courageous competency.

These days, it seems scarcely possible to find an attorney of that nature—in Virginia, particularly.

Alene’s noble, stalwart and successful defense of a new mother I heard was facing a frightful felony has brought a great and gratifying respite to recurrent disappointment in misdirected public and private agents and agencies, who could be helping, but end up hurting the cause of the common good.

Alene ensured the felony would be reduced to a misdemeanor within a year’s review, with challenging, but feasible and practicable conditions met. She facilitated a marvel!

Alene and her associate have thus forever impacted the life of that mother and infant for good and justice was finally served for them.

Alene therefore deserves the honorary monicker in tribute—and I so dub her—‘Lady “Atticus,”’

Hers is a dirty and difficult business, but also a necessary one. Only the strong, the sterling, the good, the incorruptible are WORTHY to wage it! She is all that, no doubt.

Prospective clients need search no further for an able, assiduous advocate and a legal champion.

We hired Alene Sprano to represent our son at an FCPS disciplinary hearing we felt was unfair and demonstrated overreach on the part of his high school administrators. She was unfailingly professional, passionate and effective. Even though the schools don't provide the same legal protections in their processes, she ensured our son was given due process. Highly recommend!

I was recently accused by my school for vandalism, and forced into a school hearing. Me and my family thought “yeah hiring her would be a good idea to help me get back into school”, so we decided to ask her to help us. She had made us do several tasks which were very time consuming and long and some of them even costed money and I was all fine with it but in my head I thought it was going to be worth it if it could get me back into school. As the hearing went on we pleaded our case while the school hearing officers were going at it, to me it feels like she really didn’t defend me but try to convince the school to let me back in. Instead the school hearing officers pleaded their case accusing me of vandalism and warning me of the severity of the thing I wrote, so at the end of it after 3 weeks of not hearing from the hearing office hoping for the best, and turns out they wanted me to go to an alternative school because of what I did, I feel like this lawyer did not defend me at all and keep in mind we payed full price, I had to split the 5000 dollar fee with my dad and I work at fast food it’s very hard for me to get money so this was a big number for me but I thought she was going to help me get back into school, instead the hearing office pleaded their case and said otherwise, that fee was a lot of money and I wish it helped me get back into school and let me be able to attend my graduation ceremony but instead she failed me and I really feel bad about it, please don’t make the same mistake my family made. At the end of the day I wasted so much time and money and nothing worked I feel so bad about her not helping my case out and the wasted money I’ve been depressed for months and it feels like I’m the mistery and cause my parents trouble and some of their money. This is the worse and because of this situation I cry everyday 🙁
