Lisa J Graff

Lisa represented me on several matters stemming from the aftermath of a high conflict divorce that resulted in additional litigation with my ex-husband after we divorced. These included restraining orders, two divorce modifications to change parenting schedules, contempt actions, and a host of other ...issues when my ex would do everything he could to make my life difficult and not adhere to our Agreement. Because the relationship with my ex was so contentious and my minor son was caught in the middle of the chaos, I needed someone to help me navigate so many moving parts expertly. At one point, I was in court 8x in 1 year and almost that many times the following year. It was truly an awful, emotional and draining time and if I did not have Lisa's calming, controlled, and sensitive demeanor to help me hold it together, I don't know what I would have done. All of this was coupled with her brilliant legal expertise. She is extraordinarily strategic, skilled, and on top of every nuance of even the most complex matters. She is incredibly responsive and will devote herself to your case, putting your child at the center of all decisions, even when your emotions are running over and you cannot see the forest from the trees. She is formidable in court and completely prepared each and every time. With the exception of a single issue, we prevailed in all matters we brought to court. She is excellent at finding creative solutions to problems you cannot see a way out of and knows how to create agreements that will work for you and your child for the long-term. I have recommended Lisa to others who need a brilliant, top notch, dedicated legal mind--that's what she is--as well as a caring, compassionate person to handle any family/divorce/custody matter. You could not be in better hands.

I am a young professional who, while not currently affluent, stand to inherit a considerable amount of money from my family. Lisa was able to construct an agreement that would allow my wife and I to share in the growth of our marriage while also reassuring my family that our assets would be protected.... She answered all of my questions, but was never condescending. She acted on all of my requests or explained to my satisfaction why she was unable to do so/ could not recommend it. She was even able to recommend a new attorney for my then-fiancée when her first lawyer proved to be not up to the job.
