At McGraw Law, P.C. we compassionately help real families solve very real problems. We understand that to most people family is the single most important thing, and the most important relationships in their lives. We also understand, and take the approach to our practice, that despite the parties' inability to get along, and the reality that in some instances members of the family will be ultimately better served in no longer remaining together under the same roof, the family nevertheless does not have to be destroyed.. We always remember that regardless of how many clients we represent, the individual client's family is the only one they have. Therefore, their case is always the most important, and we try hard to never lose sight of this reality. In all domestic and family law cases we protect and uphold our client's rights to the maximum extent allowable under the law, in order to obtain for them every single benefit and privilege to which they are entitled. At the same time we work hard to foster and encourage a loving, healthy and nurturing family relationship as much as possible for all involved.. My mission is to provide effective legal representation to all clients at all times; to obtain for them all rights and privileges to which they are entitled under the law to the maximum extent possible; to always maintain open and clear communication with the client on all issues pertaining to their case; and to always provide prompt, competent, and compassionate legal services.. We offer a 30 minute, initial, free, no-obligation consultation.  Our standard hourly fee (for attorney time only; no support staff services are billed at all to the client in our firm), for cases in which we charge an hourly fee, is $250 per hour.  However, many cases lend themselves to a flat fee, or other alternative fee arrangement.  The actual fee to be charged of course will depend upon the specific facts and circumstances of each individual case, and therefore will need to be discussed personally and individually with each client.

Hi, my name is Nora and I am very excited to be a part of the Holcomb Law team!. I am a native of the great state of Pennsylvania, but Hampton Roads has been my home for most of my adult life. I graduated from high school right here in Newport News before going off to serve in the United States Marine Corps. I knew even then that I had a passion for helping others and I knew I wanted to be a lawyer.. I am an alumna of the University of North Carolina, at Wilmington and Regent University School of Law. Since graduating from law school, I have primarily practiced criminal law and family law throughout South-Eastern Virginia. My path has led me from operating a solo law practice, to working as a public defender, a prosecutor, and I’ve even been an attorney at Legal Aid.. Although I’m experienced in many areas of law, I’ve always felt especially connected to clients who are dealing with the stress of divorce and custody. I know it’s a difficult process and one in which people often feel alone. I believe an important part of what I do involves walking through this process alongside my clients and being their voice when they are most vulnerable.. When I’m not here at Holcomb Law, I’m usually gardening and hanging out with my plant babies! Otherwise, you’ll find me at local arts festivals or spending time with family and friends.
