Divorce mediation is a solid option for many people facing divorce.
Spouses over 50 face unique challenges in divorce. In addition to the potential for complex asset portfolios established over many years, divorce for older couples can involve estate planning complications, unique spousal support issues and other concerns that younger divorcing couples do not have to face.
Gray divorce is a reference to couples who divorce later in marriage, especially those approaching or well into retirement age. The longer your marriage and the older you are, the more complex the divorce process. Not every attorney is equipped to manage the complex elements involved in gray divorce.

Pat Best-Vital and her team are the epitome of professional in every way: hard-working, knowledgeable, well spoken and able to break down complex legal matters so they are understandable to the non-attorney person. Mrs. Vital invests in you as her client and is with you every step of the way. It's very comforting to know someone is looking out for you, not only from a legal perspective but from a human one as well.

Mrs. Vital was extremely profesional and prompt with responses to both opposing party’s representative and myself. Particularly, as she dealt with the absence of court personnel due to COVID-19 closures. Mrs. Vital made herself very accessible and communicated the procedures and expectations throughout the entire tenure of the case in which she represented me. I would highly recommend her services to anyone seeking legal representation.

Patricia Vital at Vital Law Office was attentive to my case from the moment I stepped into her office. She noted every detail, and was thorough in every answer to every question that I had. She worked hard on our case, made me feel At ease in a time that was causing extreme stress, and fought hard for my case in mediation so that we could have the most optimal outcome that we wanted and deserves as a family. Patricia is a true gem. She genuinely cares and seeks justice. She is a delightful person to work with, and she really advocates for you in your time of need. I am so thankful that I found

Patricia Vital and her team were phenomenal in every aspect of the word! After hiring her for my divorce process, I had no doubt that she would also be the best to represent me during the separate custody case. In both cases Patricia was thorough, communicative, professional, & fierce. She listened to and stayed focused on my goals while providing a clear path to success by providing me options to achieve said goals despite any barriers that arose.

I recommend Patricia Vial's Law Firm, she is very professional, courteous, and knows how to handle tough situations. My case occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic and Patricia Vital continued to work from home and maintained constant communication with me. Always there to answer my questions and give her best advise. This is a good Law Firm.

Attorney Vital was a great help and asset to have when handling my divorce proceedings. She and her office were very responsive and answered all of my questions quickly. It was very nice to work with her and her team. I hate for anyone to go through a divorce, but I would definitely recommend her to anyone going through one in the Chattanooga area.

Pat was always pro-active and extremely responsive to all matters that needed attention in my case. On numerous occasions she gave up weekends and worked late hours to assist in compiling, formatting and completing documentation. She was always going the extra mile.
I feel her experience and insights enabled her to protect me and my family when I needed help. At the end of the day Pat understood what was at stake and worked hard to get a resolution that was in my interests throughout the divorce process. My goal was to get through the divorce and come out on the other side, Pat made that happen

For many years I have been part of 3 custody disputes and have had attorneys prior to asking Pat Vital to represent me. She juggled 3 of my cases at the same time and put a lot of effort into being on top of them. She communicated very well with me and was always prompt in getting back with me if I had a question or needed something addressed. I was finally able to get out of litigations. This was a relief after so many years of being in and out of court with other attorneys. All and all I am satisfied with Pat’s performance with how things were handled while representing me.

This lawyer is a scam artist who will hustle you for more and more money. I hired her for my sister, divorce lawyer. Payed 2500 for the first 10 hours. She didn't even use all that time, the case was settled outside of court. My sisters' ex agreed to pay my sister alimony, plus 1000 to reimburse her for some of the lawyer cost. Patricia is trying to get my sister to sign a deal to where the 1000 is actually a contribution to herself, even though we payed her full up front. My sister wouldn't sign the deal and now Patricia is threatening her that she will drop her as a client. My
