Coates, Battle & Tyree

Benjamin Tyree was a good listener , and he and his assistant, Rita Cotton, were great communicators, keeping me abreast of any updates and information. They worked hard to help me with a post divorce settlement that was difficult emotionally. I am thankful for their wisdom and expertise which gave my case a positive outcome.

I retained this firm to represent me in my divorce case. It was a very tedious and difficult case and I must say that I was kept informed by Mr Tyree and his very attentive, professional and knowledgeable paralegal, Rita C. They responded to my phone calls and emails in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend them for your legal needs!!

Mr. Tyree helped me resolve a difficult land dispute in a timely manor. Was empathetic to my situation and would highly recommend to anyone else.

Matthew assisted me today in court and did an extraordinary job! I wanted a go getter for a lawyer and he is it! Thank you Matthew!

This firm, specifically Tyree and his assistant, allows their clients to damage property before they have to return it to the owner and then will not answer emails/calls about getting a new item or my money back. They are rude and condescending and very unprofessional. They try scare tactics to get you to do what they want. I couldn't be paid the hire anyone from this firm to represent me. What a complete joke.

I can not express how grateful we are for Matthew Gravens. He was able to help my Husband with a Legal Matter pertaining to Gun Laws and here in Virginia they are not as cut and dry as you would think. Mr. Gravens was able to help us navigate and understand the law. He was able to get my husbands felony charges reduced to a simple misdemeanor. He has continued to work with us to help my husband even further in getting is rights back. Mr. Gravens was compassionate, caring and never once did we feel judged or like we were alone through this whole process. If you are looking for someone who is willing to go the extra mile and is willing to fight for what YOU want then I can't recommend Matthew Gravens enough.

Working with Benjamin Tyree was hands down one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my case. He is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also compassionate, steady, and deeply invested in the outcome of your case. From day one, Ben made me feel heard, protected, and empowered, even in the most intimidating moments of the legal process. He’s a fierce advocate in the courtroom and remains calm, clear, and focused no matter what’s thrown his way. He genuinely cares, and it shows in every email, phone call, and court appearance. My case was complicated and emotionally draining, and Ben helped me navigate it with confidence. Thanks to his hard work and dedication, we won, and I finally feel like I can breathe again. If you’re looking for an attorney who is sharp, supportive, and truly exceptional at what he does, look no further than Benjamin Tyree. I can’t recommend him enough.

Excellent Service.

Mr. Matt Gravens recently represented a family member of mine, demonstrating outstanding commitment, professionalism, and determination in pursuing a fair outcome. He left no stone unturned in his efforts and consistently showed a deep understanding of the legal process.

I am forever grateful for Caroline Butler with helping me on my case as it was a challenging and unusual one to say the least. She made sure to guide me through what needed to be done and what she can do to help as I had not much experience with the court system. She also helped out a lot with the organisation I’m with by giving a huge discount and even allocating some funds towards the cause, very kind of her! I truly cannot recommend her enough!

Matt Gravens represented my mother in a malicious prosecution case, and we could not be more grateful for his outstanding work. From the very beginning, Matt was incredibly knowledgeable, clear, and direct in all communication. He brought a sense of confidence and professionalism that immediately put us at ease as we prepared for trial. Throughout the proceedings, Matt demonstrated genuine compassion and care for my mother, who is 68 years old. He took the time to reassure her and calm her nerves during a very stressful time—his presence was both grounding and comforting. What truly stood out was how seriously Matt treated the case, regardless of how trivial it may have seemed to others. He was thoroughly prepared, laser-focused, and completely committed to our defense. Thanks to his skill and dedication, the case was ultimately dismissed. Matt Gravens is an exceptional attorney and advocate. We are incredibly thankful for his support and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of thoughtful, strategic legal representation

We would like to say THANKS to Caroline Butler. She showed up and helped my son with a court case. She was very nice and professional. Thanks again!

Matt Gravens helped me with my uncontested divorce and the process was so smooth. Very professional and the firm doesn't nickle and dime you for the little stuff.

Matt was wonderful. He kept me informed, was open and honest about navigating my divorce and was cognizant of time and financial constraints. He is a wonderful down to earth family man who gets it. I'd use his services if I'm ever in need of a lawyer again. Can't thank him enough!

My husband and I had an excellent experience with Veronica Allen, who walked us through the process of writing our wills from start to finish. She is thorough and professional, and it gives us great peace of mind knowing our affairs are in order should anything unfortunate happen.

My experience with Veronica Allen of this firm has been more than satisfactory. She understood my needs and concerns and prepared all the documents needed to fulfill them. Thank you, Veronica!!!

Caroline Butler represented our family member in a very professional, prepared manner. She was a great asset to our case, doing in depth research and had great court presence. Would definitely utilize her services in the future. Highly recommended.

Caroline Butler represented (and won!) my case and I am so grateful to have found her. She was recommended to me through a friend who had a similar positive experience and trial outcome. Her attention to detail and acumen in the courtroom was very impressive. I will forever sing her praises! Thank you again!

If you want an attorney that will fight for you like you paid her a barrel of money , but all you have is hopes and dreams at this point. Ask for Caroline Butler. If you don't understand the situation you're in, no worries she will figure it out. All the peace and blessings to you Ms.Butler. From me and my 6 children , we can't thank you enough for being there for us.
