Lisa Ann Ruggieri

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!

I cannot express my gratitude enough for Lisa's expertise. I am thrilled with the outcome of my case. I thought Lisa and her staff were professional, courteous, and communicative. They were great advocates in court and in meetings. After thirty years of marriage, I knew I needed a strong force on... my side to clear this hurdle and start a new chapter in my life. I felt very confident in my representation, and i would highly recommend Lisa's team to anyone looking for an outstanding divorce attorney.

Divorce is one of the toughest experiences that you encounter in life. Lisa Ruggieri does an incredible job of handling the emotional and legal aspects of divorce. She treats you like a person not just a client and works extremely hard with you to strive for an amicable resolution. I have heard many ...stories from friends/colleagues about their contentious divorces and how they felt like their attorney only cared about the legal aspects without acknowledging the emotional toll a divorce has on everyone involved. That's what separates Lisa from other attorneys and what I appreciate the most about her. She understands that divorce is emotional and stressful and cares about how it impacts your personal life. In addition she works diligently to insure that she provides you with options and suggestions. I highly recommend using Lisa for any family law matter.

I have worked with Lisa for the past 3 years, through a difficult divorce and then a contempt and a modification involving complicated financial matters with my ex. Lisa has been a tireless and passionate advocate for me. In each instance, I have achieved results that have exceeded my expectations. W...hile there may be law firms with bigger names and more expensive offices, Lisa achieves the best settlements. I highly recommend Lisa Ruggieri for anyone seeking help with a divorce, contempt or modification.
