I hired Lisa to write an objection to a Family Court order regarding Child Support. She did all the research in a timely manner and consulted with me continuously. She wrote a very thorough objection. She negotiated and got me the BEST deal possible! I was extremely pleased with her knowledge of the Family Court process. I recommend her and I’m glad that I hired her to represent me.

Hiring Lisa was the best decision I made
Lisa is a highly skilled and intelligent attorney. I retained her after spending nearly a year elsewhere without a resolution in sight. She is a strong and tenacious advocate who understood my goals, was straightforward in all our interactions, and brought results in a most expeditious manner. Choosing Lisa was the best decision I could have made. I should have done it sooner. I recommend her wholeheartedly and with no reservations.

Lisa DiPoala Haber review
I interviewed many local lawyers before finally selecting Lisa to represent me. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable. She did an excellent job representing me in what was a difficult process. She is loyal to her clients, and a person of integrity. One quality that I really appreciated was how responsive she was. If she could not respond to an email or call in a timely manner, she would usually let me know when she would respond. It was a small detail, but one that made me feel that my case was as important as her others. I appreciated her respect, and would highly recommend her to others.

Provided sound advice and guidance during my divorce
I hired Lisa for my divorce after her initial consultation. She took the time to understand my marital history and the challenges I was facing during this difficult time. She explained the NY State laws and how they would be applied to my situation including some guidance on how to handle things with my teenage children. After a single session between Lisa, myself, my ex-wife, and her attorney, things progressed quickly. The legal separation agreement was done in a timely manner and that allowed me to purchase a house of my own and begin to restart my life. My divorce was finalized within 10 months (and this is during the COVID crisis). I highly recommend Lisa as she will fight to ensure that you end up with a fair situation financially.

Lisa is an excellent divorce attorney. I found out that divorce is an extremely challenging life event. So many difficult questions have to be answered, and there is no formula for success. Lisa guided me through the collaborative divorce process successfully, we are almost to the finish line after a year and a half. Lisa is an extremely knowledgeable and experienced divorce attorney. She was familiar with all the legal issues of my case and circumstances, she made me aware of my options, she spent a lot of time helping me understand the issues, so that I could make good decisions for my family. All our discussions remained confidential, Lisa is a highly ethical legal professional. Lisa is always available on the phone or in person. I am very happy with my divorce agreement.

Superb
Ms. Haber spent a good length of time going over my Opt-out Agreement and gave me good advise regarding it yet because she does not do QDRO’s she referred me to someone who could look at both the Agreement issues I had as well as the QDRO’s I needed and she did so without a payment! Usually she rolls the consultation fee into her retainer amount but since she felt it was in my best interest to have one lawyer who could meet all the needs I had, there was no place to roll the fee into. I told her I felt I owed her because of the good length of time she spent with me and the advice she gave, but she asked me to pay it back in recommendations. So that is what I am doing , here and elsewhere!
Knowledgeable, talented, trustworthy and honorable.
