Lisa Ann Ruggieri

I worked with Lisa and her team to put a custody agreement in place. Lisa listened to my needs and requests, and very quickly had paperwork filed and delivered to the appropriate parties. At one point we were unable to receive the required information from the defendant, so Lisa quickly came up wit...h a plan B to make sure we could proceed in the simplest way possible. Not only did the agreement she drew up satisfy my custody needs for my son, but it was done without us even having to appear in court, and also done so quickly that not all of my retainer was used. I highly recommend Lisa and her team quickly and efficiently handle any family legal matter!!

I had filled out the 'contact us' form on Lisa's website and got a phone call within 24 hours to try to set up a time for a consult regarding custody, from Caitlin. We went over a few things verbally and set up a date to meet. At the meeting everything was thoroughly explained to me and Lisa made it ...so I wouldn't have to spend an outrageous amount of money for legal guidance during my case. (It means a lot that she would take into consideration that money is tight as is for a young single mother and accommodate). Within 20 minutes we had two stipulations written up ready for court in only 2 weeks after. Caitlin met me at the court house and did a great job offering the stipulation(s) to the other party and helping us come to an agreement when there was a conflict. I will happily be calling Lisa Ruggieri's office if and when I ever need legal guidance in the future regarding anything with the probate court. Thank you again!

I was lucky and fortunate enough that another attorney referred me to Lisa Ruggieri. I had previously tried mediation and failed to establish and/or obtain custody of my daughter with my ex-wife. I first contacted Lisa through email and explained my situation. Almost immediately, Lisa responded to m...y email. Within 24 hours, Lisa scheduled a meeting with me so I could explain my goal of securing custody of my daughter. Lisa gave me the confidence to continue my pursuit when others in the profession said it was impossible. I felt confident that Lisa was not only knowledgeable but also very passionate about my case. Lisa and her associate, Caitlin Ly, guided me through the court process step by step. They advised me on the law, kept communication lines open and were responsive to my questions. They were relentless in my pursuit to obtain custody of my daughter. I would highly recommend the Law Offices of Lisa Ruggieri, P.C. I also want to thank Lisa and Caitlin for helping me accomplish my goal, especially when others in this profession did not believe it was possible.

If you're getting divorced or have gotten a divorce and are in litigation and you want to win, choose Lisa Ruggieri. She knows the family and probate court, system and law like she wrote them herself! I've sat in the courtroom waiting for my case to be called on multiple occasions, watching other ...lawyers litigate their cases and not one of them is as prepared, well spoken, passionate, and aggressive as Lisa. There will be zero doubt in your mind that she has done her best to represent you and if you have to hire a lawyer, you want to know you've hired the best. Lisa treated me and my case like we were her number 1 priority. My only regret was not hiring Lisa to handle my divorce. Instead, I used a mediator. It was a very costly mistake. Post-divorce, my ex-Husband stopped paying me child support and did not abide by any of his financial obligations set forth in the mediation agreement. As a working mother of four children, I knew I needed the help of a seasoned professional. Lisa skillfully handled my complicated case which involved a complaint for modification and four separate complaints for contempt. During the process my ex-husband filed a bankruptcy action and I filed for a restraining order, but Lisa never gave up. She zealously advocated for me throughout the entire process while my ex-Husband hired and fired at least three different attorneys. From our first meeting to our final court appearance, Lisa established goals and set expectations, clearly advised me on the law, kept communication lines open and was very responsive to my questions and/or concerns throughout the process. At each court appearance, she was thoroughly prepared, organized, and her arguments were clear and concise. She was dedicated to the case and aggressively advocated for me, unlike my ex-Husband’s attorneys. Ultimately, Lisa helped me avoid the unnecessary expense of a trial. Instead, Lisa presented evidence and advocated for me at a binding arbitration. The Court adopted the Arbitrator’s Decision and set clear deadlines for my ex to repay all of his debts, including an award of some attorney fees and expenses. When he didn't abide by those orders, Lisa advocated for me to have him put in jail. Within hours after the judge incarcerated him, he found the money to pay. At the start of my search for a lawyer, I consulted with a different lawyer who didn't have the time to take on a case as complex as mine with an unreasonable ex and multiple issues. That lawyer referred me to Lisa stating that Lisa was one of the most well respected lawyers in the industry and the type of lawyer that other lawyers hate going up against. That was exactly what I needed. I highly recommend the Law Offices of Lisa Ruggieri to anyone in need of a strong, confident family law attorney.

Almost ten years ago I had to sign custody of my child over to his Father. It has been along hard road trying to obtain that back in the courts. I have always been a part of my child's life but was unable to give input in regard to care, schooling and well being. I was always told which school, and w...hat doctor would be seen. I had been in the courts for all these years fighting for my rights to be given back. I have worked with other lawyers to no avail. Lisa was referred to me approximately six months ago, and from day one I knew I was finally going to receive the outcome I deserved. Lisa is dedicated, organized and thinks "outside the box". She will not stand for nonsense and always gets right to the point! She remains focused and is always available for questions and legal advice. She ensures you are prepared before going into court and really listens to what you want for an outcome. She is straight forward and will tell you what can and cannot be done as well as the reasons why. With Lisa's assistance I finally have my desired outcome! Lisa is a true advocate and keeps her clients best interest at the forefront of all that is done. I would recommend her to all!
