Overview

Consistently recognized by peers as a leader in family law, Tucker PLLC handles some of the most complex and sensitive proceedings on behalf of individuals living in Washington DC, suburban Maryland and Northern Virginia. In addition to using traditional legal tools to secure the best outcomes for what’s most important to our clients, our practice emphasizes collaborative law as an alternative to litigation, recognizing the emotional toll divorce and custody proceedings can have on individuals — especially children.

Previously practicing as the Family Law Group at Feldesman Tucker, our esteemed attorneys bring more than 100 years of collective family law experience. We continue the same tradition of sophisticated, solutions-oriented and compassionate legal services that have been at the heart of our practice since 1970.

As one of the DMV’s largest family law firms, Tucker PLLC offers comprehensive experience in handling all family law matters. Our practice spans every level of complexity, including divorce, custody, financial support, relationship dissolution, high-net-worth and high-profile cases, pre and postnuptial agreements, and international matters. With an individualized approach, we tailor strategies to each client’s unique journey — whether it’s protecting their children or safeguarding financial assets, all while upholding integrity at every step.


Our main office is located in downtown Washington, D.C., with satellite offices in Bethesda, Md., and Fairfax, Va.
