The whole package

Just do it, pay the retainer, it’s worth it. You’ll always have the upper hand; the more reasonable proposals, the better articulated documentation, the more personal lawyer-to-client relationship, etc. If you’re overwhelmed and anxious and cut her off seventy-five times, she speaks calmly the... seventy-sixth time, even though you don’t deserve it, because shes really there for you. She’s just the whole package, already in the court room before you or the other party get there, ready to carry you through the darkness. I wish I was kidding, but it’s actually that dramatic.

Divorce Counsel

E. Morris came highly recommended. While working on my case, Elisha was attentive, professional and aggressive. Great communication and always followed up on calls/emails. Elisha will be the first to call if ever need counsel within the future

Excellent, professional and compassionate attorney

The quality services I received from Elisha Morris were remarkable. From our initial meeting through all interactions inside and outside of court. Elisha is very responsive to calls, questions and concerns. All issues were handled professionally and timely! She is a very smart and compassionate att...orney with a very high level of professionalism. I would highly recommend Attorney Elisha Morris.

Family law attorney

I am not happy with Elisha Morris at all! A guardian ad litem did all of the work for her and she STILL took my entire retainer. Court was constantly canceled and instead of calling me to inform me, I had to constantly email her to check the status. Elisha then charged me $75.00 for each email!! I di...dn't even get the terms that I had originally hired Elisha for! Do yourself a favor and get a more competent attorney.

Co-Parenting after Divorce

Elisha is extremely professional and honest. She goes above and beyond the call of duty. Elisha assisted me in a matter between my ex husband and I making sure we were both on the same page as far as co-parenting our children. She fought for what was right and for what was in the best interest of the... children. I wouldn't of been able to do it without the assistance of Elisha. I would definitley hire Elisha again!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I highly endorse this lawyer. Attorney Morris and I represented separate parties in an emotional divorce action. She was able to zealously represent her client's position and guide him to a resolution of the case which was fair to both sides while keeping the matter from extensive litigation. Attorney Morris is always prepared. She is well respected by Family Court Judges and attorneys as a litigator and negotiator, a combination that serves her clients well."
