Fantastic lawyer!!

I was unsure of how to start my divorce process and had been trying on my own for a while. Lisa and Katherine were absolutely fantastic!! They listened to me without any judgment. I was traumatized from my marriage and scared to face my ex partner in court. I felt at ease instantly after talking with... Lisa. She is a true professional in all ways!! She really knows what she’s doing, and honestly I’d probably still be married legally and struggling if I had not been pointed her in direction! Beyond grateful for her taking me on as a client!! If you’re looking for a fantastic divorce and family/child custody lawyer LOOK NO FURTHER!!

I had in my opinion very complicated case and was desperate to find great divorce attorney. I was fighting for my "life" and my future. I got extremely lucky to find Lisa Zuckerman. She provided great emotional and professional support. My ex spouse attorney was good and Lisa was facing some challeng...es. But her expertise, professionalism, divorce law knowledge and experience took over the situation and resulted in desired outcome. Her reputation is amazing. She guided me through divorce almost 2 years, making a progress every step on the way. And I knew that I was in good hands. She is what divorce lawyer needs to be. Thank you, Lisa. You are my guardian Angel:)

Best Decison

The best decision I made during the most difficult time in my life was to have Lisa represent me. I trusted Lisa instantly because she asked great questions, listened attentively to the answers, was open, honest and approachable. She gave me realistic results, not what I wanted to hear. Without Li...sa’s knowledge and expertise I would have continued to fall victim to my ex-husband. She was a strong advocate for what was best for my daughter and me. When I felt put on the spot to make a decision, Lisa was right there to pull me aside and help me understand my options. I would not be where I am today without her.

Responsive and Compassionate Attorney

Lisa handled my divorce after 13 years of marriage. She was very helpful during a difficult time in my life. She, not only negotiated a good deal with my ex that made sure my children and I could live comfortably and securely, she also tried to help me with some of the financial problems that arose ...from my divorce. She went above and beyond what I would have expected an attorney to do. I am truly grateful for the time she took to find the best solution for us, given the circumstances.

You won't find a better Lawyer

I hired Lisa Zuckerman when I was going through the worst experience of my life, a divorce. She provided me with excellent legal advise that saw me through it all. Her skills helped keep the foolishness that all to often comes up in a divorce to a minimum. She was always available to provide answers ...and suggestions that were needed to keep things in perspective. You would be hard pressed to find a better lawyer to provide you with clear, concise, and professional advise.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Lisa represented the father in the final stages of a highly contested custody and child support dispute. When she entered the case, it had been in court nearly five years. Soon after Lisa entered the case, we were able to help the parents enter into an agreement that the judge praised as being "thorough and carefully thought out." I truly believe that without Lisa, the case would still be ongoing. Her professionalism and advocacy for her client made all the difference the case needed, and I wholeheartedly endorse her."
