Couldn’t have been more satisfied

Elizabeth and Meghan protected my rights as a father and positioned me to win my custody and child support cases. I would recommend Elizabeth to any day of the week. They work with you to form a plan that guarantees success, explaining every step.

A True Appreciation of Legalese

With prolonged procrastination I was in search of an attorney with whom I could feel comfortable and who I could trust with embarking on the journey of discussing my final life wishes. Ms. Douglas was recommended to me by a very reliable source. At first meeting I felt that Ms. Douglas shared an i...nterest in my request for a Will and health proxy, yet at the same time provided me with questions and issues that I had not considered. She helped me toward a greater realization of the seriousness of the decisions that I wished to make. I received a document from Mrs. Douglas that further assisted me with the process of thinking through my goals and allowed me to be more specific about my needs. The document was reviewed and I was contacted in a timely manner for a followup consult. As I was not familiar with the legal terminology used in documents such as these, Mrs. Douglas allowed and even encouraged me to ask questions and make comments related to the information provided. Mrs. Douglas was very prompt and thorough in her response to my concerns. Appointments were always kept and if reschedules were needed they were done so well in advance. I am extremely pleased with my choice of Mrs. Douglas and with the final documents that I possess.

Law Offices of Elizabeth A. Douglas is Phenomenal !!!

I recently worked with the best lawyers of all time; Elizabeth Douglas, Esq and Donny. They are very professional, extremely organized, easy to talk to, patient, understanding, empathic, strategic plans and strong/solid approaches. They give BEST LEGAL ADVICE for every situation and circumstance. The...y know their law! (Unfortunately, I cannot say that about most lawyers). They truly care about your case. They want you and your family to receive what you deserve. And the staff is absolutely amazing and easy to work with! It was a great pleasure having them represent me for my Divorce and Child Custody/Support case.

The Truth and Nothing But The Truth

A friend referred me to the Law firm of Elizabeth A. Douglas and I thank her for doing so. This Law firm has the specialized knowledge to carry out the necessary steps to get results. Elizabeth and the staff are very professional. Elizabeth and the staff when answering questions and returning pho...ne calls remain businesslike and do not waste any time. I highly recommend this Law firm and if necessary will use again.

Posted by Claudia Avendano | May 03, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Would definitely hire again!

I contacted Elizabeth a year ago for a consultation, she explained me everything that I would need as a mom of 3 and deserved for 13 years of marriage. I hire her firm this year and it was a pleasure working with them, not only they fit all my expectations but also helped me make some adjustments tha...t I needed it to change last minute, I was divorce within a week after signing my stipulation. I can't say enough thank you, for all.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
